want to run this thing over IRC. 24/7 freeform with intermittent GM run quests. cyberpunk/fantasy, like if you threw neuromancer, buffy the vampire slayer, escape from new york, supernatural and deus ex in a big blender. got the setting, history, races, classes, groups, roleplaying rules. got the room all set up and everything.

hell if i can get the mechanics sorted out.

i need something simple. it takes ages to run stuff over irc. need it quick, quick, quick, easy to understand, cinematic, room for advancement (everyone wants their character to level up and get new toys, yeah?), and most of all balanced. it's the internet with random people. there's always gonna be the ones who try and break the system. gotta be balanced.
