Random Page Clip: The Jesus Christ Campaign
This storyline was run for one summer only, and had a number of players that were only able to attend for that single summer. This was also the first real run at a large, mythical and massive scope storyline that I'd ever done and I must say it turned out wonderfully.

Conspiracy Theory(s): Blow Up a Large Satellite
| This falls under so many categories it's hard to keep it straight - which is probably by design. Apparently NASA thinks that blowing up part of the moon in search of ice is a good idea (they should check out northern MN anytime from Sept to May if they want ice that bad). Dollars to moon donuts says the rocket/missile doesn't actually hit it's published target but instead goes haywire and accidentally hits the spot where the US landed on the moon thus erasing one of our most glorious achievements ever - and just in the nick of time before the Chinese get up their to see for themselves.
