Eighteen people gathered together in a small hotel convention hall. These are eighteen people with a vision for a new tomorrow. The United States is losing its hold on the populace. As the years passed, more laws were written to limit civil liberties, more politicians fell into the hands of the wealthy: corporations, special interests, sometimes just kooky old men with money. It became such common practice that politicians became officially sponsored mouthpieces for corporate America. Jose Dominguez, the current President, finishes all of his speeches with a thank you to Ameritrade for their continued support of his office.

Today is the start of something new. Today starts the rebellion. The stated goal of the movement is freedom, equality, and prosperity facilitated by technology. It saddens you to see the land of the free ruled by special interests and corrupt politicians. You seek to bring about a new world order for the good of all Americans, and you're going to do it by taking down the old system and rebuilding a new one based on modern systems, and to that end, eighteen experts in various fields of information technology have gathered together to get the ball rolling. At least, that was the plan.

Without prompting, a warning dialog pops up on the screen projected onto the far wall: "Unauthorized transmission to forbidden site detected: https://sops.dhs.us.gov/A10324/current_ops/...tar/reports.cfm. This transmission needs your permission to continue. " One head turns, then another, then another. It takes a few moments for people to parse the URL. Then, as if inspired by a single, transmitted thought, eighteen mobile PCs slam shut, and everyone eyes each other warily. The government already knows. Worse, someone inside the room just tried to contact the Department of Homeland Security. There are spies among us.

Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaave Amerrrrrrrrrrrrrrica.

Save..America? Not much worth saving, there. I'd rather move to Canada.

Xavius, can you put up a list of who is playing? Cool concept!

Shiri, why are you typing in red and green? You never do that, even if it was for emphasis...Explain yourself!

That's blue, and I can't tell you!

Vote: Exeryte

If it'll get him to talk this time, that's cool by me.

Vote Shiri

For suspicious behaviour.

He edited his post (and lied about it!!) and changed the color of and now he is denying it. I have proof!

It's already up top, silly.

His post wasn't blue, he's just changing colors.

Unvote: Exeryte
Vote: B_a_L_i

You're obviously photoshopping it to pin our rainbowman down.

Double post lagging, ignore.

...what? I don't know what you're talking about but I'm pretty sure Balizar didn't do anything wrong! I post previewed it like that, but I couldn't get it to work properly, so I didn't post it (so far as I can tell.)

Anyway, I'd go for an OMGUS but I don't think Balizar needs it, he was active last game (obv.) Pressure Exeryte to get some talky out of him!

..Are you supposed to be posting in white?

Wow, ok.

Shiri is posting in different colors. It must be some part of his role. Shiri, you've got to admit this is a bit suspicious. You "not being able to tell us" is just plain weird.



Obviously photoshopping? I pasted the screenpic four minutes after he posted, and all I did was save it then upload it to my photobucket account. You cant be serious? Shiri edited his post, plain and simple!
