Um. Okay. Wow. That fast.
If we're going to do this, I recommend you familiarize yourself with the SCP foundation if you haven't already, then we can start game design discussion via PM.
(I envision something at least somewhat like(in game structure) the RTD Horrors game here.)

Yeah, no worries, I'm familiar enough with the general way the SCP lore works. Besides, I can always look up specific SCPs if I need to.

[FallacyofUrist]

Good. So... the main limitation to the game might be the fact that the Random SCP page choses something different after a minute of one result... that might result in slow generation.
Would you like to continue discussion on this thread, or move to PM?

Sure, PM me when possible.

You could just use a normal random number generator, using the SCPs' numbers.

Maybe you can have two players as leaders, and all of the other players as the agents that get to use the SCPs.

Yes. Good. Good idea.

We're not going for this type of game, however. We're looking for something more like this. I'm glad for the suggestion, however.

I am thinking of starting an RTD based in the Star Wars universe. But I have an issue of getting bored with modding, and ending the game, but then wishing I hadn't later on. So I was wondering if someone would want to co-mod the game and take over when I get bored, then I take back over when they get bored, and so on?

You have a system?

You have a system?

I'm working on it, but it's not done yet.

Isn't there a d20 system for Star Wars that already exists?

You're probably right, but they're trying to make an RtD. As for why it matters I can think of two differences

1. RtDs are easier to run

2. RtDs are more prone to the iconic "Bay12 insanity". It's incredible how sterile the regular forum games and role-playing section is. Of course, there is a need for serious games and I respect that.

The system I have in a nutshell is: All noncombat actions are based on a d6. Any skills that the character has in the area of that action get a +1 or +2 depending on skill. Each time an action is attempted, an 8 on a d8 will grant +1 skill in that area. Combat will be a simple heath vs damage with damage based on rolls with different weapons getting different damage ranges. Skills will also increase either accuracy for ranged weapons, or damage for melee weapons. There will also be a system for ship vs. ship fighting, but I haven't quite finished that yet.

[origamiscienceguy]

Now that I have thought about it some more. I am thinking that I would have a signup for players, and one for people who want to mod the game. So it would be a community modded game with mods switching out when they run out of endurance, or after a long mission. How does that sound?

[FallacyofUrist]

That's a pretty good idea.

[Nunzillor]

Do it!
