It's been literally years since I played paranoia! It's by far the best RPG
*ever*. It neatly sidesteps the whole "take the whole thing too
seriously/powergamers" problem, and I love the BOFHly role the GM has to
take on.

Heh, I'm just severely cutting back for the New Year. "One a day on average"
I told myself. I'm already on Friday...

Oh, it's fairly easy to just /drink/ six to eight fairly quickly, but your
night will be rather long... I got through about half a gallon of vodka Red
Bulls on the New Year boozing session, and I finally got some sleep about
6am (and woke a couple of hours later.)

Sounds fun.  What rules would it be?  Or is that information not available
at my security clearance?

The 11th is good for me (you sure you don't mean Friday the 12th)

i can run a 1984 style campaign but it wouldn't be paranoia rules or
even the paranoia setting

if this is ok, how about 11/1/2001, my place - however no alchohol 
allowed if its here ;-)

scuse the slow response but have been offline since dec 21st:

mid jan sound good for paranois sesh - haven't played it in a while. I
would offer to GM it but I'm not very good. Raining concrete slabs didn't
go down well nor did the slippery slimey slope of salamanders.

Yeah, and now that Greg's had to pull out as well it looks like it won't
happen.  But let's sort out a date for some time in January.  Around the
middle of the month.  How are Friday the 12th and/or 19th for people?

Eek!  I know we had a volunteer to GM this, but I disremember who.  Was it
GRE-G-MCC or DAV-U-CRO?  In any case, a coupla days isn't enough time to
prepare a game properly, so perhaps the GM should use one of the games
published by WEG.  I have a few but they're languishing in my parents' attic
so I'm not much use.

Greg's flat is very nice.  I'm sure you'll all like it.  If you can find it.
He tends to tell people the wrong address.

I haven't made any plans yet but was thinking about going down to the
foundry NYE evening and hanging around there until 2001 then playing it by
ear from there on.  Anyone fancy that?

My New Years Eve plans have gone tits up too.  This could be the ideal
opportunity for that drunken Paranoia game we've been promising ourselves
for so long.  Yes, it *definitely* has to be drunken.
