(Please note that some flavor material is blatantly stolen from Paranoia XP, published by Mongoose Games. If you haven’t had the opportunity to play this wonderful roleplaying game, I hope you find the opportunity to do so.)


Greetings troubleshooters, and welcome to Sector 44:69:65:21! This is Friend Computer! Be honored, Troubleshooter, that you have been selected for this most honorable mission! Each of you should have received a mission briefing notice which looks like this:
Townie Role PM wrote:Greetings, Troubleshooter! You are XXXXX-X-XXXXX-1, and your friend The Computer has chosen you for a very important mission! You were carefully selected for this mission based on your record, experience, overall flammability, and the rhyming potential of your name. Internal Security has detected the presence of Traitors who seek the downfall of Alpha Complex and Friend Computer. They are clearly identified by ***CARRIER INTERRUPT PLEASE WAIT** and terminate them upon discovery. Proceed to transtube <insert link to game thread here>, confirm receipt of this message in thread and read the mission briefing. Failure to read the briefing carries a minimum penalty of a single demerit, to a maximum penalty of summary execution.

Please remember that your clearance level is XXXXXXXXXXXXX, which carries all the rights and restrictions appertaining thereunto.

Stay alert! Keep your laser handy! Trust no one!
You have also received a win condition which should read as such:
Townie win condition wrote:You win if and only if all immediate threats to the Computer have been eliminated.
Failure to have received such a win condition is treasonous, and as such if you have not received this win condition, please terminate yourself immediately. Beware, Troubleshooters! Internal Security has detected amongst your presence traitors who seek the downfall of The Computer! You are authorized to terminate any and all such threats with extreme prejudice! Here are some indications that one of you may be a traitor to Friend Computer:

• Confessing to, suspicion of, or proof of secret society membership
• Being accused of treason
• Falsely accusing a citizen of treason
• Disagreeing with The Computer
• Suspicion or proof of possessing a mutation
• Failing a hygiene inspection
• Strong desires to overthrow the government
• Refusing service of an assignment
• Being unhappy

Each of the above are treasonous, and should be acted upon as such by all diligent citizens.

Also, please pay attention to the articles at the following links, carefully selected for your clearance level and briefing necessity:


Warning! Failure to read the article at this link is punishable by summary execution!
Secret Society & Game Info – for cursory knowledge only – admiration of secret societies is treasonous!
Another helpful link for understanding the world of Paranoia

For those unfamiliar with the world of Paranoia, these links should help.

Excellent news, citizen! The Computer has established rules which are proven to root out Commie Mutant Traitors with only acceptable levels of Troubleshooter death. They are reprinted below. Quake in your boots, traitors!


- Votes must be in
bold
, preferably in the format of
Vote: Person
. Traitors have been known to be 63.17000000001% more likely not to bold votes.

- Please be attentive and unvote, if necessary, before casting a new vote. This is not required, but Friend Computer asks it of you, Citizen. Would you decline the request of The Computer?

- Lynchings will require a simple majority of votes. Once a player has reached the necessary majority, his pleas are useless and any attempts to unvote will be unheeded, as the offender will be whisked away to the nearest Confession & Termination Booth. You may
vote: no lynch
– majority votes of this kind are necessary to end the day without a death.

- The game is not to be discussed outside of the thread, before or during the game, unless your role specifically states that you may do so.

- Once your death scene has been posted, you’re dead.
Stop typing.


- Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts. It will only give you away as possessing the treasonous skill of Computer Hacking.

- Don’t quote or paraphrase any PMs from moderators. You should be able to pretend in thread that moderators are not a part of this game outside of this thread, other than necessary nightchoice responses, if any.

- If you have a night choice to make, it is due by the posted deadline. Moderators will not wait for you – if you do not submit a choice, tough! No choice will be made.

- If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period, please post a notice to that effect in the thread.
Treat this game as a commitment.
Moderators will try and be fairly active with prods. Be considerate – don’t leave your fellow citizens hanging!

- At any deadline, a simple plurality will successfully lynch a player, using the longest-held-last-vote method to break ties.

- Modeators will try to prod people, but may miss some people. If you haven't posted in a 72-hour period, you may receive a prod. It means you're missed, and we want you playing! Participation is mandatory!

- However, if twice people request you to be prodded, and for sufficient reason, The Computer may see fit to replace you without prior warning. Well, you actually
do
have prior warning...right now. ;)

-
This game will begin in Day.


- Remember, it’s a game. Happiness is mandatory.

More excellent news, troubleshooters! Before your mission begins, everyone gets to receive
Mandatory Bonus Duties
!

Four troubleshooters are needed for the all-important duty of Happiness Officer. Please determine among yourselves who will assume this noble and rewarding task.
You may find your answer to the following question may help you determine if you are fit for the position:
Do you think Commies are happy? If not, then why are they willing to endure termination rather than stop being Commies?

Congratulations,
Cogito Ergo Sum
,
Sarcastro
,
Barromán
, and
Mojo
! Friend Computer has determined that you have met the rigorous qualifications of
Happiness Officer
, and have been delegated as such! Unhappy traitors, fear them!

Happiness officers, it is your duty to check for signs of Sub-Standard Morale, keep morale high, and make sure the other Troubleshooters have lots of fun. Feel free to try out your best jokes when the time is right!


Three troubleshooters are needed for the all-important duty of Hygiene Officer. Please determine among yourselves who will assume this effective and nonflammable task.

You may find your answer to the following question may help you determine if you are fit for the position:
Would you pursue a Commie into a filthy, debris strewn corridor even though it might damage your jumpsuit? If yes, why would you intentionally endanger The Computer’s valuable property? If no, why would you deliberately allow a Commie to escape?

Also I would be honored to accept the position of hygiene officer. One time someone tried to set me on fire and they failed. I think that qualifies me.
Oh hai.

I am certainly willing to be a Hygiene Officer.

And the answer, of course, is no. Those commies obviously ran through that corridor just so everybody else would, too, so be careful not to fall into his plan.

Congratulations,
PlaysWithSquirrels
,
stark
, and
DiamondHawk
! Friend Computer has determined that you have met the numerous qualifications of
Hygiene Officer
, and have been delegated as such! Unclean commies, fear them!

Hygiene officers, it is your duty to maintain an acceptable Team Hygiene Level. Be sure to polish the game thread from time to time as necessary, and be sure to report all instances of filthy talk to Friend Computer for appropriate punishment. (Appropriate punishment ranges from a stern warning to summary execution.) Dirty hands can prevent the proper lynching of traitors, causing troubleshooter missions to fail! Uphold the sanctity of your position with all due rigor!


Four troubleshooters are needed for the all-important duty of Communications and Recording Officer. Please determine among yourselves who will assume this critical and exogenous task.

You may find your answer to the following question may help you determine if you are fit for the position:
Is The Computer everywhere? If no, please list all places The Computer is not. If yes, why is a Communications and Recording officer necessary?

Greeting, fellow Citizens. I am delighted to serve Friend Computer in every way possible.

I am happy to volunteer for the wonderful fun task of Communications and Recording officer. Friend Computer is everywhere; even the commies know that, that's why they are so afraid and unhappy in their treason.

But Friend Computer knows that a hardworking clone is a happy clone and so he has kindly provided us with duties such a Communications and Recording officer so that we might work hard and be happy and in so doing prove our loyalty to him.

Congratulations,
dahen
,
Maz Medias
,
M4yhem
, and
Coron
! Friend Computer has determined that you have met the numbered qualifications of
Communications and Recording Officer
, and have been delegated as such! Unregistered mutants, be recorded by them!

Communications & Recording Officers, it is your duty to ensure that all votes are properly tabulated and correct. Furthermore, it is
your
duty to request votecounts as necessary. Failure to do so may result in traitors votes being unnoticed, or worse, may give communists the impression that we are not a free, democratic society, giving aid to their treasonous movement! You must stand up for The Computer’s democracy at all times!



That leaves
StevieT92
as having been carefully selected through a rigorous screening process as the
Team Leader
.

Team Leader, it will be your task to ensure proper participation by all troubleshooters. You may request prods on troubleshooters who have fallen derelict on their duty to root out enemies to the Computer, and the Computer will use its most excellent wisdom to determine the appropriate correction for the troubleshooter in question.


Now that the roles have been properly assigned, the mission can commence.

Daycycle 1 begins. With 12 surviving, it will take 7 to lynch a suspected traitor.
