The scout wiped a bead of sweat off his forehead. Even through the day had barely begun, the air was already thick and warm. It felt good. Not as hot as Upward, not as dreary as Nightfall. Hopefully, the weather would stay at this delicious temperature throughout the day.
The siren rang through the battlefield, causing a dull headache in the front of his skull. The pang of the party just one night prior was still alive. He closed his eyes until the sound died down, then sprinted through the open gates.
As he made his way to the warehouse by the first point, Dale reminded himself of two things. First - his bet with Jin. If he dominated her, she'd reward him with a kiss. However, with more than half of the BLU team being medics, she'd definitely be protected at all times.
Next was his bet with Emily - a case of beer, or perhaps some cigarettes for whichever of them ranked higher. That one ought to be easy. Just fight as usual, and he'd certainly come out on top. Buuut... a little bit of playing dirty would help too - such as finishing off the enemy after she softened them up. It was fair game.
His footsteps echoed through the warehouse as he dashed up the wooden stairs. He concentrated on his breathing, as his eyes darted towards any slight movement through the small windows. The BLUs didn't have any scouts, and if he could keep his distance, he should be able to start picking off medics, and eventually get to Jin.
A flash of blue in the distance alerted him to the enemy. The scout darted back, and hopefully out of sight. He needed to wait until they were closer - it was no good giving away his position at this range. If they passed by close enough, he'd be able to surprise them from above.
Okay so!
The votes for the new base turned out like this:
Upward: 6
Freight: 3
Frontier: 3
Yukon: 1
Gorge: 0 (nobody loves you, Gorge)
So it looks like our mercs will be relocating to beautiful scenic UPWARD!
Now that that's figured out, I will start on the new base blog (I've already made a start on our new Admin, she'll be following all of you later in the week) and get things ready! I figure maybe at our next chat we can talk about worldbuilding things like what sort of landmarks are nearby, though Mime brought up the possibility of situating it close-ish to Las Vegas which I think is a great idea! Vegas presents a lot of options for fun shenanigans (and the mercs can go swimming in Lake Mead).
Please let me know if you have any ideas, questions, or anything like that. I'm super excited about this and I hope you guys are too!

Group Chat Summary/New Base Voting!
Thanks again to everybody that made it to today's group chat! It was, as usual, quite fun and I think we got a lot of important things talked about.
Okay, first and foremost we came up with a list of possible bases to move our mercs to. The bases we've chosen are:
Yukon
Upward
Frontier
Freight
Gorge
We decided to put it to a vote so the whole community, including those who were unable to make it to the chat, would have a say in where we move. So if ya'll could reply to this post or drop an ask letting me know your choice, that would be awesome! Voting will be open till Monday night, to allow everybody a chance to vote.
Next up, we decided that the base move will take place next weekend. By that point I should have the new base blog up, the new admin created, and everything in place for the move to happen. I'd say that Mountain Lab will be declared unlivable by Friday, and the official move will happen on Saturday. So you guys can continue rping the bases falling into disrepair (which you've all been doing a fabulous job of so far, btw), steadily getting worse over the week.
Thanks so much to everybody who came and everybody in our awesome community! I'm looking forward to the move and to further rping with all of you! As always, if you have any questions you can drop me a line here or at my personal blog.
