The Cybernetic Council built many simulations of various games, series, and movies over the next fifteen years or so that I was a Founding Day participant in. We fought power-hungry empires. We fought to keep the world from falling into ruin. We fought against or with time travelers from the far future or far past. We fought the moon. The key is that we generally stepped in sometime in the first half of the story, when the world was still good. If we could stop the Big Bads from burning down entire nations in their quest for power, we could stabilize the world as a nice and happy place that still felt like the world everybody knew. We built worlds, and I visited them all. I brought friends to them, and I made friends in them. And many of those friends woke up.
