Recent PARANOIA RPG links of interest
- Duane O'Brien, whose innovative experiments in proppery we have covered before -- see his real laser pistol (March 1, 2009) and real plasticreds (October 14, 2008), as well as "Straight-style PARANOIA can work" (May 28, 2009) -- recently posted two interesting PARANOIA-related entries on his blog ChaoticNeutral.net: "On Writing Up a Module" (June 24, 2009); and an excellent introduction to PARANOIA for convention games (June 22), which includes a dandy two-page .PDF handout summarizing the setting, rules, and appropriately servile attitude. Commendation point, Duane!
- Mongoose has announced forthcoming French translations of several roleplaying lines, including PARANOIA. The Mongoose French-language forum thread Paranoia - date probable discusses this, or so I (a non-speaker) assume.
- PARANOIA in the real world: Military theorist John Robb (Brave New War) on his must-read Global Guerrillas blog analyzes the simple steps in leveraging information terrain (July 9, 2009) -- in this case, using a few internet rumors and videos (such as "Chinese Commies Massacre Uyghur Innocent Workers") to provoke the bloody Uighur uprising in western China.
- Both Duane and loyal citizen Jaagup Irve noticed this Telegraph (UK) story about Japanese railway workers who face enforced daily "smile scans." Also covered on Slashdot, where many commenters instantly noticed the PARANOIA angle.
- Jaagup also sent a photo from Ground Zero in Manhattan, showing a Port Authority ad with the civic-minded message, "Now's the time to report something, not when it's on the news. If it looks suspicious, it is suspicious."
He asks, "What could one possibly report there? 'Hello, I would like to report suspicious activities near the former World Trade Center. They've been constantly building nothing there for eight years.'"
