Find a Helm of Opposite Alignment and join society in a helpful way.
What if you are Lawful Evil?
But if he was Lawful/Evil and put on a Helm of Opposite Alignment, he would be Chaotic/Good and be highly unlikely to join a society at all, what, given the distrust of authority and thirst for independence and self-determination.
I've run Rifts games that lasted for years.
You have to get over the
"ZOMG! IT'S NOT TEH BALANSED!!!" and it's allright.
It's got some really cool stuff. Shooting stuff with giant robot guns is fun.Oh, and the original Cyberpunk started in 2013, so.....
As I've said, I had a lot of fun with the system in the FRPG, TMNT, Heroes Unlimited, etc. For some reason though, with the introduction of MDC, the whole thing takes a general nosedive in playability.
And for the record, I really dig Glitterboys, and giant robots in general.
Now if someone would just come out with a game where the giant robots are piloted by zombies...

I have a question for those of you hoping that all the stupid people kill themselves.
Who will clean up all the bodies?
Japanese Robots. They actually have a corpse disposal robot in prototype.

I hear crime scene clean-up is a high paying field, not to mention a growth industry.
I like how everybody hopes "the stupid people" will wipe themselves out. If everybody thinks everybody else is a "stupid person" that leaves how many "smart people"? And what are the criteria for being "stupid people"? Common sense or fancy pants book learning?
Somehow this will become a scenario like The Twilight Zone where there's one guy left to read his book until his glasses break. What then, Poindexter?! HUH?! What then?!

It's my fault. Sorry.
Steve Jobs is well known for his Reality Distortion Field. I seem to have inherited a mutation, where most people in a specified range become stupid. The range seems to vary based on some unknown variables, but the effects remain constant. The worst part is I'm not channeling the missing intelligence; I guess it is simply lost as excess heat (this is SW FL).
Hopefully I can get a grant to study this phenomena. I'm a little worried that my disruption of their cognitive abilities may become permanent, but at least they don't seem to be distressed or pained by the effect.
Let's change the game here.
Assuming that 2012 is correct, the world really will end in a few years. What will cause it?
Nuclear war, everyone's favourite way to meet Jesus in the clouds?
Swine flu, because it did mutate, and nobody trusted the government to vaccinate them?
Gray goo, a.k.a. Things Man Was Not Meant To Know, slurping up the world?
A solar-born massive EMP destroying every electric circuit out there?
GMO-tainted humans born in some defense lab, needing neurons for sustenance?
The seas boil due to Al Gore actually being completely right?
Something with the size of Texas makes a little vertical hello?
Aliens coming to take our women?

Nuclear war will dose the ley lines with massive amounts of potential psychic energy, opening gates to numerous other dimensions through which d-bees and demons will come, leaving a post-apocalyptic world where magic and superscience battle for control of the megaverse.
Nah, Kevin Siembieda is never right.

Hey! iPhone doesn't need a keyboard, iCar doesn't need tires, and Macs don't get viruses!

So you agree with me.
Am I the only one who finds doomsday predictions outrageously arrogant? Why would that happen in our lifetime, and not the millions of lifetimes past or future?
Ever been hit by lightning?

Man, I'm already strapping on my hockey equipment and gluing crystals to my forehead.
Beauty way eh.
Actually, Aliens come in the guise of Beautiful, Scantily-Clad Women.
They kidnap all the men on Earth,
... then reveal themselves to be brain sucking monsters.
:)
Will they have tentacles?

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day. :)

I vote for a supernatural plague which turns half the world's population into demons and leaves the surviving women sterile. Then we hear rumors of a group of fertile women who have been living by themselves somewhere and we have to risk life and limb to find them and save the human race before the demons find them and kill them.
The way I see it, it's all down to the genre and time period you like best.
Vertical hello means Armageddon, starring the worst movie physics ever. The 90's.
Genetically modified organisms means chainsaws and shotguns and malls, in the 70's.
Things Man Was Not Meant To Know is victorian dresses, horses, hunting rifles and sanity loss in the 1880's.
And so on. Them gaming genres are mighty useful for lots of things.
Personally, I much prefer the more civilized age of Iä, Iä, Iä, f'thagn...

I'm hoping, assuming I survive the initial cataclysm, that I'm taken and used for food by the Xiticix. Feed me to your larvae, superior bug-people!
