I knew I liked you guys.

I shall tax you to the hilt, rape your women, steal your livestock and play your games.

All hail Matt!

But but... I don't want a tax on my tea that in reality saved me a lot of money by letting me buy the finest imported tea and spices at insanely low prices...

Holy shit, a sentence of caps lock.

It just seems like something I ought to do, while I do already have five character types and stuff set up, throwing a cool establishment in for the new timeline for people to relax and kick back in?

I like the sound of that.

It will work but people who run them get lazy and they die.

I'll put in placements against that kind of thing, like 'Honest John's' bar in the Hall of Worlds in Raymond E. Feists, Riftwar Saga. A place where all can go to acquire whatever respite they desire, an RnR thread for everyone's character in the timeline, there was something similar in another forum I was in and it worked rather well for a lot of fun stories, often branching out into other threads.

I'd say the easy way around this would be having a lobbyist style room where an armed set of guards would put you through a checkpoint/weapons detector before you went into the actual club/cantina. Wouldn't be 100% but it'd work.

I was thinking like in Deus Ex: Invisible War where you had to get rid of all your weapons before entering some buildings. Wouldn't stop brawls/pickpockets from happening, but chances of someone getting killed are pretty damn slim.

You and I are on the exact same train of thought, I'm going to PM you, this could end up being what we were talking about in PM's before last week.

Just an idea, but if you guys go through with that, would you care if I set up shop in the cantina with a character that gives missions for criminals, smugglers, bounty hunters and the like?

We're talking about it right now, it's a possibility. I'd like to see that, but we're aiming for it more or less being a place ANYONE could go to without fear of scrutiny in a sense. Weapons would more or less be taken at the door so not sure how friendly that'd be towards bounty hunters/criminals. Definitely get back to you on it, cause I'd like to find a way for it to work.

If you guys need an eccentric chef or bartender type... let me know. This sounds like it'd be awesome to be a part of. ;)

Thinking about it, a cantina could be a good hub for independent factions.

This is essentially the kind of thing Rev and I are planning, we'll Iron it out over the few weeks that the Think Tank will inevitably take place and finish it then.
