The year is 2027. Augmentation is on the rise - initially heralded as a way for victims of tragedies to be able to seamlessly reintegrate into society, mechanical improvement quickly became a sought-after voluntary procedure. Starting out on the black market and only available to the wealthy and privileged, it has since crossed into legitimacy and is now available on the mass market. As the popularity of mechanical augmentation continues to increase, groups have formed in protest of mass adoption of this technology.
Sarif Industries has recently found out about a potentially destructive EMP device that could completely set augmentation technology back decades. While currently only a prototype, the device employs a design that is easily mass produced. The device has been retrieved, but everyone on the task force knows that it won’t be safe until it’s locked inside the Sarif Industries research facility.

Hello all! This is my first time being a game mod, despite playing in quite a few games over the past couple years. A few things. The rules are pretty standard.
-This game is of moderate complexity, but not horribly high power.
-This game was reviewed by ganderin_dan and Wheat_Grinder.
-I will let players spectate, but appreciate the offer to replace instead.
-If you have any questions, please PM me.
As this game is a Mini, there will be a maximum of 12 players allowed. Signups will be open for 72 hours. If signups are not filled afterwards, it will be open until filled. Assuming more than 12 players /in, slots will be filled as follows:
-Players with 0 games will get 4 entries
-Players with 1 game will get 3 entries
-Players with 2 games will get 2 entries
-Players with 3+ games will get 1 entry
Based on the above, players will be /random-ed in.
When you sign up, please provide the following:
-Your preference (/in, /replace, /spectate, /out)
-The # of games you are currently in
-Your favorite example of deus ex machina in any form of media
-Your favorite party beverage
Most memorable Deus ex machina has to be Jotaro's instant ability to move while time is stopped in part three of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. So...badass!
I don't really drink much of anything besides water...

Love me some Deus Ex! I have to /barn Dagaen on wishing this was based around the first game, though.
I don't know that I have a favorite deus ex machina moment, but a memorably ridiculous one is God (literally) blowing everyone to kingdom come with a nuke at the end of The Stand.
/in. I need a regular game of Mafia. Plus I miss Generic
Favorite drink is either Mexican Beer (Pilsen-type beer in a salt-crusted glass rim with lemon pulp and ice) or anything with layers (especially shots).
Favorite Deus Ex Machina is... Idk, does Superman reverting time to save Lois Lane by making the Earth spin clockwise count?
My favorite DEM is probably the ending of Dodgeball. The treasure chest literally says Deus Ex Machina on it.
Party drink: We have this shot here in Montana we call a Chuck Norris. It is Cherry McGuilicutty + Liquid Ice Energy Drink and it is amazing. It might just be a local thing because I have tried to order it elsewhere and not had any luck.
1 more empty slot! I will still leave the sign-up thread open until 8pm even if it fills in the event that more than 1 additional person wants /in and I need to random it.
I just realized my previous post was potentially misleading. I'm still leaving the sign-ups open for another 2 hours (until ~8:30 EDT) as originally noted.

My favorite party drink is vodka redbull.
I'll allow it. I'm not really interested in having multiple hydras, but one is fine.

What do you know, it's almost like we were the surviving players of a game that just ended and are looking for a new one.
