System: FATE core (with some variants from FATE toolkit)
Format: PbP
Players: Infinite(?) (Or until this gets too cumbersome)
Description: Welcome to the greatest city-state in the world! Metropolis is the leader in culture, economics and technology. But there is a brooding resentment deep underground by the people who lost their jobs to robots, and vicious back-stabbing schemes by those who wish to rule the city-state, and even the world.

NOTE: This game will be played in a sort of Fiasco sandbox style where play is more free-form, there will be no assumption of a "party", PCs are just another person, free to make deals and backstab each other.

This is basically me and a few non-goon friends running one shots and short games of our rpg backlog, as well as a few favorites we all enjoy. Our schedules all suck, so this was made to be extremely pick up and play. We mostly play pretty rules-light games and dig the indie/storygaming scene.

People dropped from this and we're down to a regular roster of about three, me included. I'd really like to keep this going, so if it's something you're interested in, feel free to join!

Game: The Lord of the Tower [CYOA] - Like Wacky Races, but with a tower.
System: Wingin' it.
Format: CYOA
Players: 2 slots left for Fourth Wave Full up!
Description: A mysterious tower full of treasure burst out of the ground a year or so ago, and a whole town has sprung up around it to watch heroes try to get to the top. Aiming for a casual, playful roguelike style - expect unfair deaths and rerolls and lots of player influence on the world inside the tower. Even when people die, the tower gradually unlocks its secrets, so even though they're playing as separate characters the whole thread is working together to get to the top.

Currently on our fourth wave of people - currently 4 people have died, and one has quit, escaping from the tower due to despair as his wife's love for him was sucked from her very memory courtesy of a foolish choice he made! Joining in this wave gives you a decent bonus to all rolls since you'll be going through floors that other characters have already passed through. It's rules-light and friendly (except for the constant threat of death)!

edit: Filled up! Should open up again in a week or two!

Players: 2-3 more players to shore up some drops.

Description: Sigma Protocol is an elite international cooperative espionage agency, performing only the most difficult jobs, employing the world's greatest spies.

You are not one of those spies.

Problem is, a shadowy mercenary group called the OSIRIS Initiative has either killed or driven into hiding all the decent spies in Sigma Protocol. You're all that's left.

Good luck.

Recruitment is open again!

Currently the team is working undercover for a crime boss in Touluca, El Patólogo. He's having them knock over El Banco Primera Nacional, which conveniently also houses a private vault owned by the OSIRIS Initiative which surely houses... uh, something. What, exactly, is in there isn't exactly clear but it will undoubtedly be helpful in your nebulous investigation into whatever it is that's happening. Or get you arrested and disavowed. One of the two.
