Percy Winkley bug

This was a work-around to a problem that came up when they redesigned the Positron Task Force to be 2 TF's instead of just 1.
ALL "talk to Positron" missions had to be changed since all that you got when you got to Positron was information on the TF's. Apparently they haven't figured out how to get those missions working yet as they were previous to the TF changes.
Since the I17 CB boards are gone, I can't check to see which other missions were tested and found to be broken. I believe one of them was in the Synapse TF but it's been long enough that I can't recall the details. The only reason I remember this one was because I was the one to report it and then re-tested it after the "fix" and found that the mission was simply removed.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.
Black Pebble is my new hero.
If Synapse wasn't working that was fixed. I ran two Synapse's last week and had no problems with the two talk-to's. They'll probably fix it eventually. I can definitely see Percy being a much lower priority than Synapse or any one of the other bugs that cropped up in i17.
Thanks for the explanation Tex!
Did Percy tonight with a friend. Neither of us got the "Talk to Positron" mission.
Not that I minded... but thought I'd report it here for comment. I did not report it in-game.
