:The word "Friend" is what shows up on the map when you hover over the blue person icon where they are standing. That directly states that that person is a friend. I don't see a list of friends for either Random Characters or [[Friendships]]. The latter (main-character friendships) is a relationship-building process, involving the stats "Roman Like" and "Roman Respect" etc, with the aim of unlocking (and keeping) their secret ability - I don't think the word "friend" is used there. The random characters are simply friends (and named as "Friend") that do you do one-off jobs for. I didn't know that "Random Characters" was actually used too.

::I agree with Steve... The term "Friend" seems to imply the [[Friendships in GTA IV|friendships]] that are available in [[GTA IV]].  The term "Random Character" is taken directly from the game, it's even used in an [[Achievements in GTA IV|achievement]], so that's probably what we should use.  --[[:w:c:gta:User:GuildKnight|GuildKnight]]<sup>[[:w:c:gta:User_talk:GuildKnight|Talk2me]]</sup> 03:09, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

:::Have we come to any sort of consensus with this?  I still feel that the term "Friend" seems too easily misinterpreted as referring to the friendships... Maybe make [[Friends]] a disambig pointing to both [[Random Characters]] and [[Friendships in GTA IV]]?  --[[:w:c:gta:User:GuildKnight|GuildKnight]]<sup>[[:w:c:gta:User_talk:GuildKnight|Talk2me]]</sup> 23:17, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

::Only admins can move pages. BTW, I think the term friend means a person that is part of a mission, in any mission, the other person involved is marked as a blue ''friend'' (even when not your friend), I can never understand it either. I agree the term [[Random Characters]] should be used. [[User:Biggest gta fan ever|Biggest gta fan ever]] 08:19, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

:::Okay, I've moved the page and fixed some redirects.  It should all work properly, now.  --[[:w:c:gta:User:GuildKnight|GuildKnight]]<sup>[[:w:c:gta:User_talk:GuildKnight|Talk2me]]</sup> 16:30, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
==Time of the Missions==
I heard from some sources that the Random Characters Encounter vary the time of the day. I think that's true as I checked.
May I have some contributers to post the time of the encounter? They don't show up like always. --[[User:ThomasH|Here to provide Images and Info!]] 11:25, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
