So we played a few games of Fiasco out in Bama, and the consensus seems to be that it's ridiculous fun.

Would people be interested in trying out a game over Google Hangout? I have all the dice, so when it comes to divvying those up, I can make little piles for everyone and just call out which dice are left.

I started work on a Fallout playset sometime ago which is still a work in progress, but if people like the idea of it I can put my head down and finish it, so that we could maybe actually play it next weekend?

I would be down for that, though I'll happily sit back and NPC if any new people want to have a go. :)

Are there any fancy rules for creating your own set, or is it just a case of looking at the sets that are already out there, and trying to make it match? Might be fun to try and pull together some playsets based on our RP settings at some point, and see if the gits and shiggles spark off some awesome threads or anything.

Oooh, or maybe a Dark Banana Fiasco. :ohno

You just have to come up with enough relationships, needs, objects and locations to fill out all the places on the playset sheets.

The only 'rule' (more of a guideline I guess) is that you should be gearing everything towards creating as much trouble as possible for whoever is going to be playing it. So relationships should be dysfunctional, needs should be questionable, items should have the potential to cause mayhem, etc.

It's worth having a look at the Fiasco Companion book for some tips on what works well and what doesn't. You can get the PDF of the companion here for 12bux: http://www.bullypulpitgames.com/store/

As far as playing goes, I'm happy just to 'facilitate' the game and let other people play too :)

Inicidentally, there is already a playset which would lend itself well to Dark Banana style characters: http://www.bullypulpitgames.com/downloads/index.php?file=playsets/lb01_dragon_slayers.pdf

I'm not drawing a ghoul...I'd never be able to speak after enough ghoul dialogue.
