Spike, I was just wondering whether you knew about this thing called REAL
LIFE, It's where you leave your computer and go outside!!!

Though I'm not Spike, I think I read about that once... Tell me some more
about it (through private email please, I don't want to give the others
any ideas!)

Real Life?

Erm... Well, I can't speak for Spike, but I haven't heard of it. Is
this something that I should get involved in? It sounds really boring,
after all, it means I'd have to leave my 'pooter, and that's too much.
Especially as the laptop has gone T.U.

Real Life... Nah, don't like the sound of that. Thanks but I for one
will stay in this fantasy world I live in. It's much better. <g>

Isn't that the new, really strange RPG that we were discussing a few
weeks back?
The one with complex LARP rules and things like "Jobs", "Girlfriends",
and "Bills"?

I don't know about that one, I think I might just stick with SR, White
Wolf and Rifts. Some of that sounds really far-fetched, and even _My_
imagination has it's limits.

|Real Life?

I think it's a new game, or somehthing....

I've not seen any reviews in the gaming mags though, so I can't comment on
it....

(With our luck, It'll be by T$R)

There's a book out there just for you Spike. It's called "How to get
on the outernet" or something like that. It's quite amusing,
actually.

That explains A LOT! Now, where does one get the expansion rulebooks?

I think the idea i you write them yourself, based on your Experience
Level.
