During the RPG Round-up at Winter Camp XXXVII, Doug Wilson, Steve Donohue, Gabe Church, Joe Warren, and Alex Downie sat down to play a story game called Fiasco. In Fiasco, the players create relationships between their characters then assign them needs, locations and objects before finally starting to play. In our game, Joe and Gabe were best friends, Joe and Steve were the two weirdest kids in school, Steve and Alex were a pair of angry nerds while Alex and Doug were identical twins and Doug had met Gabe while doing community service. Alex and Steve had the School Yearbook on a bad disk drive and were planning to restore it while secretly putting on some photos to shame Gabe. The photos came from Joe and were of a party at the lake that got a little wild. Meanwhile Gabe and Doug had found a bag of money while doing community service and the drug dealer whose money Gabe had found was looking for him and, in a case of mistaken identity, Joe.
The plot revolved around the thugs chasing down Gabe and Joe for the money while Doug, who had the money, turned it into the police for the notoriety. Meanwhile Alex fixed the drive and Steve got Joe to give him some photos which he inserted into the yearbook. There was a lot of mistaken identity involving the twins and Joe and Alex sharing the same name as characters. The game resolved with a lot of bad news for everyone. Gabe was nearly killed by thugs but was instead wounded when the SWAT team shot the thugs. Alex tried to fake his own death but was caught. It was revealed that Doug was mostly a poser just out to do things to make himself look good. Joe was forced to give up his tree house after the fire and Steve, who was arguably one of the most guilty, actually came out looking good when he won a lawsuit against the police after charges were dropped.
A good time was had by all. (SD)
