Very cool And you weren't lying about the spoilers - all I can say is, if you are in the game, do yourself a favour and only read your own sheet.

I would have been very happy to have been "double tapped" by forest gimp. It would have been the only real PvP moment of the whole con.
Sooo...now that we're all online "chummers" I could go for a "sleeper cell" game. But who is it?

Sooo...now that we're all online "chummers" I could go for a "sleeper cell" game. But who is it? There is a moment built into the scenario, when the PC's workout that Thatcher is a mutant, that I make the Foresst Gimp player make a Int+Religious Knowledge Roll - Fail (minor) - The Gimp realizes that the New Church has known all along that their Saint was a mutant and this is why he has been tasked with preventing the missions completion. Because of this betrayal of his core beliefs will his indoctrination hold - the Player must decide. Pass (minor) - The Gimp realizes the above AND that he is now a liability, that the New Church cannot suffer to live, as well. Same question is posed to the player Pass (extraordinary success) - All of the above as well as realizing that the other PC's must die AND that the bomb must be stopped, that this mission was basically a one way trip for Gimp. Same question is posed to the player. Each time the Gimp Player has rolled with it ie: Gimp's indoctrination holds . . . I suspect players like being douchbags to each other Aaron

Well one so rarely get the chance for player on player action…
That didn't come out quite the way I thought it would but I'm going to stick with what I just said.

Well one so rarely get the chance for player on player action… That didn't come out quite the way I thought it would but I'm going to stick with what I just said. Those are the way those things generally sound... Yeah the FIASCO game probably had the greatest player ON player interaction. Those moments are a tough call for a group that only generally know one another; especially if said group is full of a bunch of genuinely NICE bastards. I am rather happy to say that my game of MONSTERHEARTS with Hyvemynd was one of the better examples of "Hello, I'm D.T. Pints and you are ? Oh that's lovely, I will now try to murder your character." Your Murderous Ghosts had the potential for truly devious players to take out their end of con crazy ideas on some poor individual and I really enjoyed that game. I hope we have more of this for Jackercon II. Perhaps just a warning label on the box, "This game MAY include player on player action. Or just an opportunity to shoot your friends in the face." Cheers, Curt J.

That is the best and worst thing about murders ghosts. And the reason why one of the things I like best about murderous ghost is the reminder at the bottom of every section in the player book that says hey if you are entirely too creeped out by this you have the option to end the game and now. It's not a win condition for the player, but it really kind of is.
My Life With Master also has some delightful possibilities for player on player violence.

"MY Life With Master"? This sounds like an... intriguing... game.
