Why is there one inside the vault that only one faction can access and one in new haven yet BM cant have one when more people move through BM every day?
Even the double standards aside, it's quality of life and it's being researched and not given for free. What is even "easy" about having a stash? It's pure convenience and quality of life.VT didn't research it though, they custom ordered it, since 1.0 of CGC, actually.
New Haven is a town, much like how Nipton, Freeside, etc has em. Regardless of who owns it, New Haven will always have a stash as a town (HOWEVER, this was since Divide, NOT CGC, so you could argue to have it removed if that is something you are pursuing, pursuit to management vote). Black Mountain is not a town, nor is it a core faction base (cores get em naturally).

You keep saying stash, what you mean is faction storages, and I am telling you, it's not going to happen for server limitation reasons, not because we are being mean. Too many faction storages deployed = storages start getting fucky and items start vanishing, and other faction's items in storage will start appearing in there. We can't adjust space or anything in the storage besides whitelist access, and stashes are not researchable, period. That makes things way too easy if everyone has a stash in their base.

Unfortunately, customs are only allotted 3 faction storages (this is because too many faction storages = stuff starts bugging out), I apologize since that wasn't directly written anywhere and it will be rectified.
However, you can sell this research to another faction who does not have the max amount of faction storages (there are still a few). -

On-Hold
I cannot view the screenshot links (refer to image above), and you formatted so weird I thought you didn't have any at all and it just the book logs. please correct it.

Approved
Be sure to fully read the perk's description on the forums to perform it correctly, if you have any questions, DM me so you don't end up getting a PK reason on yourself by mistake.

I never once sold NCR armor, I only put it on BM.

Tonio, you fell under the threshold for rolls, in the future please be sure to meet it (of the 20 screenshots in day 1, for example, you rolled for half of it). In day 2 you had 7 screenshots in a row without a single /roll. The RP in day 2 was meatier, I like it. The reason I am not putting it on hold is because your contribution was not as significant (2 days), and averaging it out, Nadia exceeded the /roll's threshold several times and her /me's were very meaty.
Nadia, I see paragraphs of RP with many rolls accompanying them, great job on your part. You helped average out the other researchers who did less /me text and /rolls.
The chefbot denying you access is pretty funny.
Also you are a dick for lashing out at the Overseer, several times.
The assistant's rolls, like Rockwell's, do not have to be as detailed, especially since you more than made up for it in your RP, so that was permissible.
Lastly Nadia, I understand this was posted before book log requirements were updated, so I won't on-hold it for not meeting the research requirements that were not specified, but for future, book logs should be separate for each day.
Rockwell, dear god please try to save 1 screenshot at a time, screenshotting whole blocks of /me's is very hard to tell where you are at in the whole thing without memorizing the previous ones and tracking it along. Also, disable OOC and IC when doing research.
Also what the fuck is this

Emma, please re-do your days and add rolls to them. I really hate doing this because you did a lot of effort clearly and it can be very frustrating, especially since the visuals and the RP are fine, you just need to roll for them, per research rules and standards (you can see them pinned in the research topic in case you need a refresher on what they are).
Tonio, the Project Notes links are broken? or missing.
Tonio, I like the RP you did, I really do, it's creative, and I know it can be a bit of a struggle to do /roll's on them so I can excuse some of it, but your /me's are 1 sentence, I'd like to see a bit more of yourself in the RP as well as other opportunities of /roll's (like you did the connection broke up for a few minutes, you can do that repeatedly in this case if it means getting some rolls out of the way). Maybe a holotape log to get more meat of the RP?
Warly, I like the creativity of going back to the same place with a pickaxe to get the ceramic tiles from the floor. That's a clever way to get around several failed rolls from that area!
And when this gets accepted, it will have no consequence to the VG vendor.

Catalyst, very excellent job navigating several failed rolls in succession! It's always super frustrating to deal with, but you went through various avenues physically and even mentally to resolve them. Even going so far as to incorporate a negative roll as "it is stronger than intended", which is clever way to continue to make progress while still having to overcome a bad roll.
Trying to break into FOA storage is extremely funny, albeit a bit powergamey depending on what you planned to take from it ("steals blueprints of implants")
Very in-depth with gathering, testing and with emotion on your character's part, this is a very good project!

Last time we had 8 character slots, people would have characters in factions who NEVER flag up and then suddenly they hit green with 20 guys when a war is called, then drop back to 2 guys after it's done (cough cough Minutemen cough cough), it's disingenuous...

The guy waiting 12 days for this to be looked at before finally snapping.
He wasn't even banned in-game is the crazy part, he could have carried on as normal and nothing would have changed.

What are character perks?
Intended to reward players whom intend to serious-RP and go above and beyond. Filling out the following application will grant the individual character special perks. Specifically roll bonuses and research boosts towards their character in-game.There is no limit to the number of perks that can be applied to a project, same perks do not stack, but multiple perks can be applied so long as they were used in the project. Research boosts are hard capped at .25x to any given project, even if the perks' total boost exceeds it.
(ex: Researcher Bob has the perks Scrapper, Salvager, Laser Commander and Gourmet. If Bob is doing a project about making a laser pistol, he could apply Scrapper by gathering glass to make fiber optics; he could apply Salvager by gathering wiring for the laser pistol; and finally he could apply Laser Commander by field testing and making the laser pistol. Gourmet has no relevancy to this project, and therefore cannot be realistically applied.)
How do I apply?
Fill out the following application elaborate on the context/story of how your character developed unique experience in the field of which is requested. Keep in mind, all reported events must have happened in-game, or from a (at least) 100 word story of how your character achieved this skill set posted on the holotapes/roleplay section of the forums (the story doesn't need to be specifically about the skill, but contain specific context)Fodder perks/Item Perks: 10 screenshots minimum, 3 separate occasions (with different factions if applicable) minimum
(ex: ambush on NCR, DR, Minutemen for Ambusher perk or torture 3 different people [preferably of different races, factions], etc)
Tier 1 Perks: 20 screenshots minimum, 4 separate occasions (with different sources, items, situations, if applicable) minimum
(ex: mine ore, scavenge stone, glass, and gather sand for Scrapper Perk)
Tier 2 Perks: 40 screenshots minimum, 5 separate occasions (with different sources, items, situations, if applicable) minimum
(ex: perform 5 different procedures to get doctor's perk, like simple check up, unbranding, a surgery, bullet removal, etc)
Note that perks requiring other perks still need to meet the minimum requirement of screenshots and occasion in addition.
Can I apply for multiple perks?
Yes, however each perk must have their own individual application. You cannot apply for multiple perks through one application.Can I apply for perks from my efforts in research projects?
Yes! They have to be ACCEPTED projects. You still have to submit following the format and explaining how what you did in the project specifically would have helped you obtain the perk (with accompanying link to the project and/or days you worked on).------------- Mythic Perks - (Requires Staff Council+ approval, you may only have one mythic perk) -------------

The RP is was solid, but unfortunately, you did little to no rolls. Some days had less than 3 rolls spanning across 20 screenshots.
Please re-do those days and add rolls to them (you can use the exact same rp re-typed out).

Beating the eyebot was funny. Very creative resource gathering, very thematic, I really like how Mitch El went the extra step to find and use many different things (not required, but it is really cool that you did). You even explained where you got items from (stealth emitter coming from the disassembled stealthboy) so even looking at days independently of each other, I know exactly where you are at.
Jo Amon, I can understand it can be frustrating to get repeat low rolls, and you did a decent job navigating around them. I would like to see, for future, more of your character's personality. You failed to untangle those cords? Are you frustrated? Are you confused? I want to see some more emotion and..well... you as your character in them, just food for thought.
Strickland, while I appreciate you rolling for every action, some actions can be done without needing a roll (like if the whole /me is grabbing the component from a chest that was already there from a prior day, you don't need to roll for it, because what, it won't be there on a failed roll?). Furthermore, I appreciate seeing your personality in your rolls, it's just the /me's felt a bit shorter than I would have hoped, some only being 1 basic sentence (but you made up for it in rolls and quantity of screenshots so that works).
For Future, please go to F1 > settings and change the chat fadeout so that I can be able to read some of the messages.
Overall excellent project!

[ Research ] Allow Customs to research additional storage lockers and stashes

I was told differently from the owner of VT back on CGC, where VT used to be a core before it was bought, not a town or other things, I would think he would know better but
, this is just my two-cents, not gossip truth.
The faction storages is a 100% a hard no though, like, shit will start breaking if that is allowed to go through. It's happened twice on Divide and once towards the end of CGC, we know what happens when too many storages show up.
