Bweheheheh, now I can talk without wondering if you're the sort of bastard GM that'll execute you for using a pen above your clearance level to update your charsheet (the good kind for Paranoia, that is).

The best part is, Greenstarfanatic has been using green text to speak with the computer.

AUGH. I CHANGED. I CHANGED.

I guess I'm off to read up on Paranoia...

Don't do that. Seriously. If the GM is mean, he will murder you for it.

Don't worry, I still don't understand much of this. Although, would there be any way to play any of the Paranoia games?

The rules are above your clearance. Displaying knowledge of the rules is traitorous behavior.

Incidentally, here are the session transcripts from 2-7 from a campaign Rift ran a while back, which both Scelly and I will likely be constantly referencing. They give a good general idea of what play feels like. Incidentally, if anyone has a transcript from that first session, I'd love if you'd toss it my way.

Ooooh, interesting. Don't worry, again, Wikipedia was no help. For Rules. At all.

So...what kind of RPG is this? I know from the logs it's dice-based, but...is it Tabletop? Online? Hm?

It's a pen and paper, but the rules being hidden and simple means that it works quite well online.

I'm doubly thankful for this game now that it has prompted me to dig up these logs. Hahah, I had forgotten about this gem:

We'll see how the dice treat you. I'm using a 1-20 scale, but I may not always use a d20 ;)

It's the luck of the role, and I may indeed kill your for a pen, or reward you with a status upgrade.

But if you so much as hint at any laws, physical or social, I will bring the full wrath of Friend Computer down on you :P

I was using green to make it look like an old time-y console, haha. Colors are important, I remembered.
