Having read this above post I have two things to say.

1: Thank You! Grey Areas begone! Off with you beyond the realms of reason and or Nyquil fueled explorations into dreamscapes.

2: About the proper use of description in Info Skill postings: BALLS! Knew I should have gone for broke during those times at home.
People come to me looking for the truth as it suits them. They look for a happy ending to their troubles. Too bad for them. I don't do happy. As to putting an end to things, The Truth often does a fine job with out me.

Thank you so much on clarifying 5 & 6! That distinction is important and I'm really happy to have it stated.

Also all of this is really helpful, thank you!

Question on point # 2 -- I know we are required to ask the exact same question if we want to pool our points. Is it only the specific question that needs to be the same, or the whole researchy kit'n'caboodle? You mentioned phrasing being important and skills/backgrounds adding flavor -- would that flavor, er, poison the pool?

As in, could we do the following:

Player 1: Project Wavy Tresses -- Using my Secret Sartorial Society connections, I'd like to use my 2 Intrinsic Points to help try and figure out how Bob gets his hair to look so good
Player 2: Project Wavy Tresses -- Given that I have Rank 3 in the International Hairdresser's Cabal, I'd like to use my 1 Intrinsic Point to help try and figure out how Bob gets his hair to look so good
Player 3: Project Wavy Tresses -- I have super spiffy hacker skills and am hopeful that Bob purchased any hair care supplies with a credit card. I'd like to use my 3 Technological points to help try and figure out how Bob gets his hair to look so good

First of all, would those research points all stack in this example? Second, is there anything to be gained/any point in mentioning relevant connections or skills or whatnot in our questions? Or should all 3 players just send in "I'd like to use [X] points of [Y] to to help try and figure out how Bob gets his hair to look so good" and leave it at that?

...I'm suddenly self conscious about my hair...

Why do you think I wear a hat all the time? Because it contains the cowlick of dooooooom! :lol:
