Okay, but an rpg about the nixon admin, or an rpg group made up of the nixon admin?

Baloogan: Dec 5, 2004; Fun Shoe

either would work for me

in the nixon administration RPG group Kissinger would be the DM
Nixon would play a paladin
ford would play a warrior
mcnamara would be the annoying new kid who munchkins everything, definitely some sort of goblin rouge or something
hag would be a sorcerer or warlock or whatever
sperro agnew definitely either a theif of a magic archer

or, in the nixon administration RPG the setting would be right before nixon was to resign, the night before or the night the day before
and its late at night at the white house and nixon (played by the DM) is drunk & high, crying, and running around the white house through secret passages
and its the party's job to try to talk nixon down and get him to resign
players could be ford, kissinger, random marine seargents, secret service etc
there are piles of secret bunkers under the white house, complete with like mad scientest labs and the CIA is testing LSD and summoning arcane horrors deep underneath the white house etc
and so the team has to go find nixon, face the lovecraftian horrors of the white house, deal with an international crisis involving high level discussions with the russians, also possibly there are rumors of an assassin somewhere on the premices!!
protestors gathering outside too! and its a dark and stormy night

create new datetime column.
populate that column with converted reg-dates (should be a simple UPDATE command).
make a few small code changes to use that column instead of the old (just grep for where it's used).
delete old column.

A one-shot written with this plot and the Cortex Plus Drama system would be amazing, here's how it is used in Smallville RPG:

quote:

Cortex Plus Drama is used in the Smallville Roleplaying Game, which was the first Cortex Plus game. It has the most complicated character generation; the players start by drawing a relationship map that step by step ties the player characters to each other and the gameworld. Instead of attributes and skills, the important factors are considered Relationships with other characters and Values (Duty, Glory, Justice, Love, Power, Truth in Smallville) and each relationship and values having a statement attached and you can use the dice when acting in line with the statement. A character can also challenge a value statement and possibly reject it, allowing them to use it three times in the dice pool on that roll - but using a smaller die for the rest of the session every time they want to invoke that value or relationship.

When a character loses a contest and doesn't give in in Smallville they take stress (Insecure, Afraid, Angry, Exhausted, and Injured) which can be used against them - or they can use at the cost of increasing the amount of stress they've taken, and being unable to act beyond d12 stress.

Make sure you let CNN explain the implications of this before you watch it, which you probably shouldn't do, because watching it is illegal.

Yeah I mean besides evidence of superpac collusion this is pretty whatever... And since nobody prosecutes Clintons for anything because they'll have you murdered... It's probably not going to go that far.

The only leak poo poo that could actually make a big impact would be something that can fit in a 5 word headline and is something that is damnable without legal action...
