So, a successful first run and neither you nor your employer betrayed each other. A good start!
We didn't really have time for any kind of epilogue, but CC (formerly known as "Donut") was met at the CEL embassy gate by security guards who took Connie off his hands and escorted her inside. Everyone was 800 Cr richer by the time they got home. 3 XP all around.
How did you guys think it went? Was there anything in particular that you'd like to see more or less of as we continue?
And the other two major questions:
1) Is next Monday still good for the next session?
2) In-game, when do you want to make your next run? I know I was talking earlier about leaving a month between adventures, but now I'm feeling like it might work better to do them closer together, both to keep a better flow of world events and because I seem to recall that some of you can't reliably meet your cost of living with only your day-job income...
If you want to follow up on any of the other news/job/bounty listings, you'll need to do that sooner rather than later, before the news gets stale or someone else collects on the jobs/bounties. There's also the matter of Bullseye's leg wound, which will probably take a few days to a week to heal up.
Once we've figured out a date, I'll update the world and write up a new Chicago Free Press so you can decide what you want to do.

I saw that you were making a lot of updates this morning. Now I know why...

That's the idea.
There's room for everyone in the adventure log!
Regarding Obsidian Portal, I've rediscovered how poorly-integrated the "Characters" tab is with the rest of the site, so I would suggest that we use plain wiki pages instead of the "Characters" section, at least for NPCs.
The issue is that, if Connie Acosta (just to pick the first NPC who comes to mind) is on a wiki page, she can be linked to from just about anywhere by putting [[Connie Acosta]] into a page and, if the Connie Acosta page hasn't been created yet, it will show up as a red link that you can click to create the page.
If, on the other hand, she's in the "Characters" section, you link to her with [[:connie-acosta]]. If the character page exists, then it will pull her name from it, display "Connie Acosta" in the page when you view it, and everything is happy. If the character page doesn't exist, however, the page will display "
Content Not Found: connie-acosta" and no link to create her.
Using wiki pages allows you to put links to anything and everything you mention without having to worry about whether the pages have been created yet or not and, when they are created, the links will immediately start working. Using Character (and Item, for that matter) pages only allows you to link to things that are already there, so you can't put in links in advance, which makes it much harder to keep everything richly cross-linked.
