"It is the end... but the moment
has been prepared
for."

The Great Quantum Leap Forward is a GURPS game for five or six players set in near future Something Awful. The players are normal goons who got shifted through time forward to the year 2015. Things are have changed - some a little, some a lot. You missed the rise and fall of Helldump and Laissez Faire and arrive in a world of New GBS and Let's Play where Traditional Games is a discussion forum and the actual games are hidden even deeper in the forums' hierarchy. Oh, a Lowtax has gone missing.

Characters have to be built on 75 points and are normal, everyday goons, so no supernatural or exotic advantages/disadvantages. I'd prefer you stick to the Basic Set, but if it makes sense for your character to have something from other books, pass it by me.

Make sure your character has a realistic spread of skills. Some professional skills, some everyday life skills (Driving, Cooking etc.), some hobbies etc. Gear is limited to what your character is carrying, any unspent wealth is in the character's bank account which will not be accessible immediately on arrival in the future.

I don't mind making your characters something like a caricature of goon stereotypes (or invented stereotypes from 2015!). This isn't meant to be a super serious game after all.

This game is a good opportunity for GURPS newbies to learn the system! Vets are welcome, too, of course.

Do you have him chained up in your basement or something?

I remember Onto. He'd start up five games and started to drop them when he got bored. Meanwhile, he'd start up more new games.
