Actually, I posted such a thing to the list a long time ago; it's on my
webpage (see my url).

I won't repeat it all, but basically it relied on Urban Brawl/Cermak
Blast to 'disguise' the Anti- Challenges (Anti-Astral Barrier, Security
Decker, and so on) that can hose particular decks. Humanis Policlub
Members helped to reduce the threat of Trolls; there were no "anti"
Specials, however -- except a few Rough Nights and Riots.

The Runner side of it was fairly weak, but interchangeable; typically,
I'd only use one or two Runners, assisted by Just a Rumor and Rampaging
Mutant. (In fact, I think there were only twelve or so Runners in it,
at all.)

The deck was created before Underworld and Corp War came along, however;
I'd have to reformat them some to take advantage of some new cards
(particularly Shady Manager).
