This is the same colors die I famously paired with a hit location die in a #ParanoiaRPG session at #GaryCon X, to simulate how the citizens of the Alpha Complex play "Twister." (I always like to include two or three novelty #dice in my dice bag at game conventions, but I'm often guessing which dice will be useful for a given game. This was a day I guessed well!)

#RPGaDay2023 Q17:
FUNNIEST game you've played.

Same answer as for Q11 (weirdest game): #ParanoiaRPG

Working my way through #communitytv and got to the Meow Meow Beez episode, where the community focuses on rated popularity creating a #paranoiarpg -like environment where you wear colours matching your assigned station.
Hillarious, but a little too close to what most social media has become. I just want to connect to a few new people with similar interests and share ideas. I think #mastodon is close to what I am looking for, but I need to remain focussed on connections not numbers.

@spezbaby For me, #ParanoiaRPG will be one of the contenders for "funniest game" in a few days. As for "weird" - it wasn't on my list for that...

... But I suppose it *does* discard/subvert many traditional RPG tropes (co-operating PCs, PCs who survive sessions...) - and was an early game to do so (1984). And maybe I've internalised it by now, but coming at it fresh, Alpha Complex *is* a pretty bizarre setting. So I can see the point of those who do pick it here :-)

#RPGaDay2023 Q11:
WEIRDEST game you've played.

Hands down it's got to be #ParanoiaRPG
So much fun, and very, very silly.

Remembering that time when folks in the weekly rpg group were discussing #ParanoiaRPG and one of my fellow players mentioned how much he hated the one time he played it at a convention, because his character was secretly a communist.

I just didn't have the heart to tell him.

No surprise when, about ten years later, he turned out to be a Trump fan.

Still one of my favorite #ParanoiaRPG memes and a spot-on example on how to roleplay friend Computer.

Neat.

I used to run a fair bit of Paranoia back in the 2nd edition days, and I used secret society objectives like that all the time. Paranoia is 90% fueled by the PCs trying to hose each other and simple little conflicting orders were a great way to nudge the party towards chaos (and eventually to that sweet, sweet, over 100% fatality rate I always strived for)
