The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:
> Wise Oracle, whose knowledge of rolls and roles surpasses even Gygax
> himself...
>
> If there were a Role Playing Game devoted to you, what would it be
> like?
And in response, thus spake the Oracle:
} Our scene unfolds in a dark chamber, danger weighs heavily on our
} heroes as time runs out... Actually, the lights are just dimmed in
} Paul's parents' basement, and the only things that are running out are
} the Cheetos and cokes.
}
} Steve: Paul, Another email is dropped into your mailbox.
}
} Paul: I read it.
}
} Steve: (rolls dice) It's another MIME encoded question. The answer is
} "Zot"
}
} Paul: I delete it.
}
} Steve: Another email is dropped into your mailbox. (Rolls dice) This
} one is a well articulated question, and the answer is both witty and
} insightful.
}
} Paul: Really?
}
} Steve: No. It's another MIME encoded question, the answer is zot.
}
} Paul: I delete it.
}
} Richard: I send a question, using my +3 keyboard of humor.
}
} Steve: (rolls dice) Your question is received by a novice who really
} seems to get off on the totally fictional power trip of anonymously
} telling complete strangers they must grovel to him. He replies with
} "No grovel. ZOT!!!"
}
} Steve: Your return question is (rolls dice) an open ended question
} involving a class struggle presented in a refreshing and humorous
} manner.
}
} Richard: Using my +3 keyboard of humor, and my +1 Woodhouse omnibus, I
} craft parody with Howard Dean as Wooster and his campaign manager as
} Jeeves.
}
} Steve: (rolls dice) Success. Your answer is outrageously funny, and
} is sure to reach across broad sections of readers and score 4.6 in the
} digest, if the priest selects it. (rolls dice) The question goes to
} Tim.
}
} Tim: Richard, you misspelled color, neighbor, and humor with extra
} "u"s and reversed the "er"s at the ends of your words. I also have no
} idea what a lift and a lorry is. I delete it.
