Paranoia
« on: August 03, 2010, 10:25:43 pm »
Anyone into this?

Per wikipedia:
Paranoia is a humorous role-playing game set in a dystopian future similar to Nineteen Eighty-Four, Logan's Run and THX 1138 among others; however, the tone of the game is rife with black humor, frequently tongue-in-cheek rather than dark and heavy.

Many actions are secret, and passed in notes/PM....

Anyone know how to GM it?

If i had time i might be willing to, but this should also be in the general roleplaying section, not RTD

You really can both sig it.
But... That would break the laws of sigging! We can't have everyone running around with the same quotes. IT MAKES THEM UNFUNNY FASTER!

I've GMed it before, but I have had some epic times playing it. There was the time we obliterated an entire sector just trying to walk up to the damn information desk. Good times.

Well, you know how if you take your thumb and forefinger and hold them up to your eye, you can make it look like you're squishing someone's head? It's like that, only for real.

I have absolutely no idea what's going on in this fort any more. Migrants arrive, they die for some reason, the fort is flooded for another reason, then dwarves go mad, more dwarves die and I'm just laughing in my distress.

I dunno, you guys have survived Thomas the tank engine, golems, zombies, nuclear explosions, laser whales, and being on the same team as ragnarock.  I don't think something as tame as a world ending rain of lava will even slow you guys down.

So this does belong in the RTD section.

The kitchenette mold free, you move on to the pantry. it's nasty in there. The bacon is grazing on the lettuce. The ham is having an illicit affair with the prime rib, The potatoes see all, know all. A rat in boxer shorts smoking a foul smelling cigar is banging on a cabinet shouting about rent money.

Is it just a RTD with a theme or does it have strict rulesets?

As far as I know this is a proper rpg with rulesets, but I haven't read through the rules yet so I'm not sure.
