Fiasco, Sundays at 7PM CST (2-4 players needed)

We will be playing Fiasco , starting with a few of the settings from the main book and branching out. The first setting will be "The Ice", centering around McMurdo Station, Antarctica. In the future I'd also like to do scifi/cyberpunk (Blade Runner, Brazil, etc) settings along with the crime/horror ones. No experience necessary, the game is very rules light and you can pick up most of it in one session. When you apply include a paragraph about a character you would like to play, and what they would do in game. Take a look at the Fiasco Playsets for inspiration. I'll be running these every Sunday at 7pm CST. A microphone is required to play, but you can shadow if you don't have one.
Update The first session went great. We had three people playing George, Juan, and Skip. A summary is below. We have four people playing tomorrow, but could use some more! Game setup Location: Ross Island, world's largest penguin colony. George: Maintenance worker, not all that bright, running an illicit penguin pelt trade with Skip. Juan: Maintenance supervisor, apathetic, addicted to pain killers and tranquilizers. Bookie for the station. Skip: Only pilot for the whole station, paranoid, running multiple smuggling operations. Summary George continuously screws up, Juan almost catches him skinning penguins. Skip is in debt to Juan, but has no money to path him. Skip is rather upset with George, he and George decide to make sure Juan is not a problem by giving him tranquilizers (which he will abuse). George keeps screwing up, and with so much heat on he wants to get out of the penguin pelt trade. Skip needs the money from it and convinces him (at knifepoint) to do one last run. George thinks Skip is out to get him, and tries to bring Juan in on the pelts operation in exchange for dealing with Skip. Juan doesn't care at all and blows him off, but just for fun he tips off Skip that he knows about the operation. Skip is paranoid and furious. He goes after George and tries to kill him, but only grazes his leg. George gets away and hides out. Juan finds him and George asks him to go get some bandages. Juan goes to the infirmary, but is confronted there by Skip. Juan plays dumb but Skip is unconvinced. Juan leaves without getting the bandages and heads back to his quarters. George doesn't have much faith in Juan so he goes to Juan's quarters and waits for him. While Skip is following Juan he gets apprehended by a base officer for possessing a gun. Once Juan gets back to his quarters George sees he has no bandages, so George heads to the infirmary. The medic there reports the gun wound, and he is pulled in for questioning. Surprisingly Skip convinces the authorities that George attacked him and that he shot him in self defense. George gets arrested and eventually dies in prison. Juan gets arrested and convicted for possession, and he too dies in prison. Skip gets just fired.
Are you still looking for players for another game? If so, feel free to message me. I would love to play!
Yep, on Sunday we will be playing the Manna Hotel playset (<a href="http://www.bullypulpitgames.com/wiki/index.php?title=Manna_Hotel" rel="nofollow">http://www.bullypulpitgames.com/wiki/index.php?title=Manna_Hotel</a>) and could use a few more people.
