[b]What is Modempunk?[/b]

First, take a pessimistic outlook on the 80's. Unemployment is at an all time high. The price of gas is in the 6 digits. Movies studios start going bankrupt when people can no longer afford to go to the movies; Piracy is rampant. Crime is rampant. 

Then you add rampant speculation. Anti-piracy laws get passed, and now you need a license to own a personal computer, just like owning a gun. The dollar goes into a hyper-inflation spiral, and banks start issuing their own currency, 1800's style, only this time they put it on floppies and called them "Cred-points". And so on.

[b]How do you play?[/b]

The system is really dead simple, being that you only really ever use 1 12-sided die (A d12) for all checks, and playing fast and loose with the rules is encouraged. You should really check out the [url=http://1d4chan.org/images/e/e8/JnJ_Modempunk_rightways.pdf] rulebook,[/url] (It's right after the Joints'n'Jivers rules). The whole thing is about 15 pages, It'll take you about 5 minutes, tops.

[b]Do you have a plot?[/b]
Nothing specific, but I'd rather figure out if anyones actually interested in playing a game like this first, and then figuring out what the story is actually going to be.

Heres the char sheet right away if you're interested:
