Wow, a "Paranoia" thread that's actually about Paranoia! *SQUEE!*

Count me in, Friend Computer!

(Typo in the title? Must be a Commie Mutant Plot!)

Never played an RPG before, you mind giving me a try?

Be warned, Paranoia isn't really a good RPG for beginners — the level of backstabbing and betrayal is fairly unique to the game. You might end up learning habits that get you shunned from other games... wink

OK... Not really a habitual person, but I trust your advice... or should I?

Well, of course you can trust me, I have such a friendly and sincere smile!

Why, just to show you how nice I am, I'm going to trust you with this super-spiffy new Jumbo Espresso Maker I got from R&D, just the thing for stimulating an entire team of Troubleshooters out on the field. It's a very valuable prototype that I'm supposed to test, but I'll gladly let you get the promotion-worthy credit for doing so.

Now, uh, if you'll excuse me, I have to go check on my laundry over at EUR Sector. Should be back in a few (37,476) minutes or so. Don't mind the beeping noise from the espresso maker, that just means it's almost ready to... serve coffee, yeah...

W...Wait!

Sorry for being late, but this is something I'd really like to join, if I may. I'm not a communist or that mutated or a subversive, honest!

In all seriousness, while I haven't touched a non-console RPG in my life, Paranoia seems to be a really fun and interesting concept.

So, can I join?

I ran a not very serious game of Paranoia once (as in, I didn't even actually have the sourcebooks) and I've wanted to play for real ever since.

If it is possible, add me in when convenient.

Would it still be possible to join? I love paranoia, and have never been able to find a good game.

Huzzah! While Impressive, the power to appear through roofs and skylights at will is a disadvantage

I would love to give this game a try, but I don't have the rulebooks or anything to get me started. It's hard to get hold of such privileged information when you're stuck permanently at Infrared clearance (broke). And of course, only mutants and commies pirate gaming books.

The game (on this forum) seems to have died, actually.

The title of this was a typo, the game is called Paranoia. It's a tabletop RPG where the player lives in an enclosed Orwellian city governed by a malfunctioning computer, and has to survive by backstabbing their party members.

The above information is beyond your security clearance. If you happen to read the above information, please report for immediate termination.

Have a nice day.
