After your recent post on G+, I actually found an earlier duplicate of the post in the moderation queue, so that was probably the issue.

This is after I turned moderation way down after similar issues a few months ago!

Sweet!

FYI, if you want a more active forum to show off/discuss these, then the G+ community is a good spot: https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/100639022106768583265 (there's also a reddit community if that's your bag.)

Hi michel3105!

Thanks for your question! Yeah, this could be clearer.

The players should always be able to see the number that the clock is at: 1200, 1500, 1800, 2100, etc.
The players should not be able to see what happens at each level: so if at 2100 on the Action Clock, the facility goes into lockdown, they shouldn't know that until it happens.

Does that clarify that?

Glide through the most secure corporate computer networks. Crack the ICE that stands between you and that big score.

Drop your cyberlinked autoshotgun to the floor empty. Flick chrome blades from your fingers. Dive into the midst of that corporate response team to secure your team’s exit.

Turn up your synth-leather jacket against the rain. Watch the back-alley entrance of the club for your target. Tail the armoured limo through the neon-bathed streets.

Cut power to the alarms. Drop over the wall into the compound. Slip past the auto-sentries. Locate and secure the prototype. Escape under the eyes of the rotor-drones.

Whatever your story, you are the extended assets of vast multinational corporations, operating in the criminal underground, and performing the tasks that those multinationals can’t do... or can’t be seen to do. You are deniable, professional and disposable.

The Sprawl is a game of mission-based action in a gritty neon-and-chrome Cyberpunk future for an MC and 2-4 players.

• Create your own Sprawl at the nexus of bleeding-edge technology and fragile humanity
• Play hardbitten professionals caught between ruthless corporate interests
• Win sometimes, lose sometimes and be double-crossed a lot

There are a thousand stories in The Sprawl. What's yours?

Yeah, that's a good idea. It should keep the wording concise while still making it easy enough to max out the clock if the group wants to.

Thanks Kuzco!

By the way, if anyone wants to hear more of my voice: http://www.idleredhands.com/?p=2644

TALlama: I don't have a system for tracking that and because I've made a lot of incremental changes it's difficult to track mentally, but I'll try to find time to skim the Beta version over the weekend and see what I notice.

Overall, I would say that most of the changes have involved tightening the basic and playbook moves, giving advice on how to use moves, and giving advice on how to MC the game.

AlHazred: I am aware of that trap and I'm determined not to fall into it! Having everything digital should help. I also plan to keep stretch goals out of the main book so that I can get the main book done and in your hands and harddrives then deal with additional material.

I'm working on my own final editing pass now and incorporating some playtest feedback from Gateway over the weekend. v0.3 will be available to Kickstarter backers by the end of the week. If you can't back the kickstarter for whatever reason, I'm also happy to send a copy to anyone who has contributed playtest feedback.
