Game Description

Many thousands of years ago- or perhaps millions- the Earth was turned into a glassy husk. No-one remembers now what happened; few even know of Earth's history now. On that day, the few people who survived had their minds and bodies digitized and were allowed to live in a computer simulation of Earth in its prime. Life was peaceful, and generally pretty good for everyone.

But the vast, intelligent super-computers that ran the simulation grew bored watching over this mundane reality, and so ventured back into the ruins of what was once the Internet, dragging up all of Mankind's old novels, television shows, video games, and even a handful of internet memes, and making them real in the simulated universe. Things since have been... interesting. But generally pretty nice.

But there is something outside, something no-one has seen for thousands- perhaps millions of years. And it's now turned its eyes to the computer-simulated universe you live in...

This will hopefully be a roleplaying-heavy game, and that just doesn't work if your posts are unpleasant to look at.

Yes, again.

So Who The **** Are You?
I'm Schilcote. I LIKE TO TALK FACETIOUSLY IN ALL CAPS LIKE THIS GET IT LIKE THIS YEAH ITS GREAT ISN'T IT. I'm perhaps the most dependable GM on here - no seriously. I, like, almost never drop games. I stick around 'till the players leave. I've even had games finish. So don't be worried about spending an entire evening working up a character sheet for a game that will never happen not that I'm bitter about that at all guys nope not like that happens EVERY TIME.

I Don't Use GURPS, What The ****?
GURPS is an easy system to get into. It is! I swear!

If you don't even have the sourcebooks, and aren't willing to drop fittydolla on them, you can instead grab yourself a copy of GURPS Lite (just "buy" it and check out normally) for the low low price of nothing. You'll also want to get your hands on a copy of GURPS Character Sheet; it's also free and makes character creation an order of magnitude less painful.

In the shortest of terms, most of the mechanics stuff will boil down to you deciding to make a roll or me telling you to, you looking up the level of your skill, then putting "[dice=john shoots the demons]3d6u##z[/dice]" somewhere in your post, where ## is your skill level plus the difficulty modifier I give you.

So there goes THAT excuse.

I Take It You've ****ing Done This Before
gee what gave you that idea
Why do you have to swear in every question?

**** You
That's not a question.
