((...Saaaay. Not being able to use money to purchase excess commodities? Sounds rather communistic, Friend Computer.))
((TREASON! Pew pew!
Anyways, you can buy some stuff...but it's limited. And a bit odd--slide rules are pretty low-Clearance, but instructions are a couple levels higher.))
((Oh, I get that letting us buy 6packs would all but remove the point of waitlisting, but it's not in my nature to let anything go unlampooned. Also, it's a bad idea to try and buy explosives on C-Bay, no matter how attractive that nuke is.))
((Nah, all you need is a good hacking skill))

What do you mean by "6packs," anyways?

Seems they dropped that by the second edition.

((IIRC in 1st-5th editions you only had your original 6pack, and it was Paranoia XP that allowed you to purchase more. Also note that 3e and 4e do not exist, and 5e is an un-product.))

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Oh, and a tip for all you new players: You're all gonna die. Horribly. Painfully. Multiple times. And it will be hilarious. By the end there won't be much more than a pile of ashes, gore, and chestbursting Scrubots. The first session I ran ended with every single troubleshooter, the black box they all had to both protect and steal, and everything within a kilometer being vaporized by a tactical nuclear grenade. Hilarity ensued.
It was very fun times. I threw the Scrubot. If this dies, you should totally run a forum paranoia, man.

Aw, this wasn't something keeping it alive, it was something complaining about its death.

That's always annoying.

Yeah...

Maybe I'll start up one of these some day, once I finish studying the Manual. Man, I love being UltraViolet Clearance...

I'd be totally down for that if someone went through with it.
