OK, so Cosette just needs to cut off one leg high enough up the thigh that she can slip it over the cast. Then try on the jeans, and, if they fit, either:
* Paragon: Buy the cut jeans and sew the lower leg back on. What? It'd look really punk-rock.
* Renegade: Hide the cut off leg, return the cut jeans to the rack, and buy another uncut pair of the same size. That'd be even more punk-rock, with a possible arrest bonus, but with Steve, Marten and Tai to distract the shop assistant the risk would be low.

Why ping[1] when you can just use whois? ;-)
Though, I agree that would be creepy.
Isn't it simpler just to take people's declared geographical locations (e.g. I'm in the UK).
[1] Ping only tells you packet loss and time to target.

It's Tai that points out the flaw in their plans, isn't it? Don't know why I thought it was Marten.
I did not intend to encourage creepiness; at least, no more than usual. :wink: It simply occurred to me that there was a flaw in the plans of all those stake-sharpeners, and, well, I suppose I understand Tai's need to pop Cosette's plans. I would've done it later, though.
Is it cold in here?:
Well, isn't it usually Marten who is the voice of reason? 803, for example.

Or the strip where he was officially designated as such.

I'm a recovering geek and although I can pass for non-geek most of the time some things set off my inner geek (like ping abuse). ;-)
