Please, don't bring up MovieTown.  <ick>

But, the way that I run it is pretty much like a supernatural Mad Max
(it could definitely be said that FotNS has some cheese to it, but I
won't bring that argument up).

There are certain things that I DO like that ARE cheesy.  S-Mart
Overlord, the Wizard's Tower and the Killer Tomatoes are three
examples.  Yeah, there's a lot of cheese, but I usually wade through it.

I do get the feeling that survival is not that hard, though.  But, then,
that's partially my fault.  I have my group living in a military base in
Nevada that had been "reorganized" into a city.
