Topic: Paranoia: Adventures in Clonesitting Subject: Briefing Time?
Dweebs hems and haws, then mumbles something about helping. When the group sticks their heads under the table, he wisely does not follow suit... but he does irritatingly remain at your table, and appears to be eavesdropping without trying to look like he is doing so.
Once your heads are under the table, the whisper continues.
Congratulations on your promotions, troubleshooters. It is I, your friend, The Computer. I hope that you are all happy.
You will soon be even happier! I have a fun mission for you. It is perfectly safe, and really easy, especially for a team of seasoned professionals such as yourselves. The only thing is, its a secret. I mean, REALLY a secret. No one is even to know that we are talking right now, got it?
I will now assign each of you your role on the team. These roles were determined using an advanced statistical model taking into account your skills, temperments, and qualifications. These roles are as follows:
Team Leader: Artie-R-FCL.
Loyalty Officer: Ammpe-R-AGE.
Hygiene Officer: Slipp-R-YEE.
Morale Officer: Brighte-R-NNU.
Communications Officer: Blowz-R-UPP.
Equipment Control Officer: Steam-R-LLR.
You will of course perform these duties to the best of your abilities. While on duty, you wi...
The voice trails off in a distracted manner, then starts again.
Clone Artie-R-FCL, where is your communications officer? Why is he not present at this briefing? This is highly inefficient, which leads to chaos, disorder, and general unhappiness!

Comings and goings != notifying the GM.
Also, it gives me an excuse to fry a clone.

Topic: D&D 5e Subject: D&D 5e
So, Wizards of the Coast annonced that they are working on the next generation of D&D. I'm assuming that they won't call it 5e, but that's what it will be.
I'll be interested to see if they continue down the path of the pen and paper version of the MMORPG, which is what 4e has always felt like to me.
Of course, I'm a D&D fossil... what do I know?

I just wanted to clarify the situation is all. I think your presuming didn't quite take you as far as the assuming has been known to do.
As in, when you ASSume, you make an ass out of you and me..."

Topic: Paranoia: Adventures in Clonesitting Q&A Subject: sigh
Not even the first round of posting and I already have an issue. Riaucard has gone dark on me. My messages have been read, but not responded to.
I'm inclined to fry one clone, then grab a replacement player.

Topic: strange question Subject: huh?
I think that Alacrity answered pretty clearly for himself. He asked if the interview had to be live or if it could be done via email.
Takley isn't trying to start a religious debate, which we frown on here at the Inn. He's asking for research help in an assignment for a class. Totally different thing.
I have no problem whatsoever with this topic; it does not violate the TOS in any way.
If it takes a turn where we start to argue religion, my stance will change. I don't see that happening.

I have re-read it, myself. Really impressed with just how well that game went, how well it reads.
I'm hoping that chapter two lives up to it!

Topic: Zombies in Chicago Q&A Subject: yeah...
I'd like to see Max and Ted live along with Murph... be a nice core of the group.
But if it ends horribly, it ends horribly.
Also: Dangit! I wasn't going to get excited yet. I was going to get Paranoia stable before I started thining about ZiC. Grrrr....

Topic: Zombies in Chicago Q&A Subject: well..
Tiamat,
If the group managed to get you inside, you'll live. If you want the bounty hunter to continue, he can. If not, I can write him out.
Celeste, send me a character concept. Bsckground, etc, why he/she is in Chicago at the outbreak.

Up to you. If you want to change characters, this would be the time.

Topic: Zombies in Chicago Q&A Subject: like a zombie, this game will return from the dead...
Just a heads up - Zombies in Chicago will, in fact, be returning in the near future.
I plan to close chapter one with a "silver screen" moment - in other words, I'll essentially write a narrative to close out the current situation.
We will then bump the clock forward a bit, and those characters who survived and/or have players who wish to continue, will be introduced in the updated scenario.
I loved this game, and placed it up there with the most fun I have ever run. I really appreciate all of the creativity that went into the original incarnation.
At this point, I know that Eol Fefalas, Grugg, and Tiamat5774 are all wholeheartedly in. I understand that PrincessAli is interested, but would like to pick up with a new character.
Zombie_shakespeare has regrettably declined to continue.
I do not know how Merideth or malek04 feel about it.
This means that I will have at least one, and potentially three to four, openings.
The new game will have a new thread and a new Q&A area... just wanted to make an "official" announcement.

Topic: Paranoia: Adventures in Clonesitting Q&A Subject: lasers
Nobody asked me about laser pistols, or why most of you have two laser barrels that match your security clearance. I suppose that it's because you all know Paranoia very well, and don't need to ask.
Just in case, however, you should know that laser pistol barrels act very much like an ammo supply. Each barrel is good for six presumably safe shots (assuming you have no amusing malfunctions). Barrels have six rings on them, each of which change color to indicate a use (in case your troubleshooter has trouble with simple memory tasks).
You may fire more than six shots with a given barrel, but note that every shot above six results in an ever-increasing chance of weapon malfunction.
Barrels coincide to the security clearance given to an ownr (you guys have red barrels). Reflec armor protects against lasers, and is designed to protect againt lasers of up to that color's security clearance (Yellow armor, for instance, protects against yellow, orange, and red lasers, but not green or blue).
You may use any barrel you come across, but of course doing so of a higher color than you have clearance is treason.
Have a nice day.
