OOC chat

Hey guys, just a heads up, I've been pretty swamped with work lately, but I'm hoping to have the game up and running by tomorrow. Also, two of our Troubleshooters have been demoted back down to infrared status as their players have dropped out. I'm happy to run with four characters, but I am open to hearing your thoughts ...

I never played it before. I assume 4 players is fine. Anyone with experience?

Same, never got far enough the first time I tried playing to know how things shake out.

Let me know if you have any problems posting into the thread or anything, this is my first time GMing on here and it is very possible that I've forgotten to check a box or something. Also, if you haven't filled out the form, don't worry about it.* The Computer will assign you an appropriate role.

*unless, of course, you want to.

Thread locked. Apparently Computer's been sabotaged and troubleshooters lost access

Should be unlocked now

I've just approved AstralEndeavor, a new user on Gamersplane, so hopefully we will have our four-man Troubleshooter team after all. I'm going to wait until we can get Astral set-up and then we will continue the adventure. Welcome aboard.

Hi, hope I don't mess anything up. I've gamed using play by post before, but this is my first run here on Gamersplane so I'll probably have some dumb questions now and then.

Welcome aboard Astral :) I'm new to GP and first timer on Paranoia so no worries about messing up. There will be plenty of that here 👌

Speaking of messing up, I guess I had never sent a note to anyone in the forums. All good now!

Hi guys! I believe I am the 5th player joining. I'm also kinda new to PbP and Gamersplane as I joined a week ago, and also my first time playing Paranoia. Welp, I'll be sending the GM Computer the form soon!

Hi RoAries, no worries, Just copy and paste from the available characters into a custom character sheet and submit it. Please use the character's name when you name the file, that makes it easier for me to find him/her quickly. When I have some time, I will provide you with the secret side and update your character sheet. Once you submit the character, and I approve it, you can jump right into the story in the main adventure thread: SEND IN THE CLONES. thanks for joining.

Ok, I have submitted. Btw, what play style is this? Is it Classic, Straight, or Zap? Must I roll on mutant powers/secret societies, or can I choose(or not choose)? Or can I even make up one myself?

Go ahead and give me two d20 rolls and l'll update your sheet. We're playing classic style.

I think I can also edit it, but sure, go ahead.

Btw, I probably should've asked this beforehand, but what are Coms in Paranoia? I've checked that PDCs are like modern phones. Are Multicorders like video cameras?

Well... if you knew that you’d know the rules... and that is treason ;)

I’ve actually never thought about that, but it could have a number of throwable implications

If you would like to examine your equipment, you may do so in game.
