i am not a person with varied ttrpg experience at all, being someone who has largely played extremely homebrewed d&d and some systems that are basically designed to be 'better introductory systems than fucking d&d', basically. but i do find ttrpg design interesting and sometimes go looking for weird ones to read just like, for fun. so while i have never (and will never, good GOD) run it, ftr i am imagining something like Synnibarr (1st ed), a game i know is notorious for having a deliberate focus on courting rules lawyering players.
like, look at this:
Tumblr media
minimus would not write synnibarr per se, but he would write a game with that shit in it like 'yes, this is reasonable, you need to have checks and balances to make sure nobody fudges anything, which is basically a sin i think'
post-canon concept where minimus finally gives up on the idea of writing an excruciatingly exact book of rules that will explain how to live life on the basis this uhhhh doesn't work, and instead takes up ttrpg design as a hobby, resulting in the most unplayably dense yet technically balanced game of all time. attempting to read the lookup tables might result in a breakdown. nobody is sure if it's supposed to be a parody subtly mocking obnoxious rule lawyer types or not.

Darlings, let's do this again, properly this time. Less you forget what I'm about
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Do you vote for the one you like best or the one you hate most? Yes
Propaganda under the cut, provided by your local bastard politician fanatic
Nova Prime: Served under Prima as Nova Major. The only one in this list that held the real Matrix, but he didn't become Prime because of it, he became the leader of Cybertron when he united it after the 13 Primes break up during the First Civil War (not to be confused with the Autobot-Decepticon Civil War). His reign was supposedly the most prosperous but it had all the seeds that would later make Cybertron get worse. He actually had a hand in ruling and did things like gettting the Cold Contruction program going. He fucked off to do expansionism and went MIA, returned 6.2 million years later to try to merge this universe and the evil universe he got sucked in. Is defeated but comes back again some years later and is stopped again.
Nominus Prime: He somehow became Prime after Nova dissapeared around the same time the Functionist Council was established. Notorious bigot whose reign was characterized by social disparity. However by the time of Chaos Theory he's more of a figurehead with the Senate being the ones that really do the ruling, but before that, it's said that it was the Coucil who called the shots, so for good or bad, I don't know what this dude ever actually did besides looking pretty. His contribution to the narrative is to be put in a coma and then dying, he has no spoken lines. His own Senators sent an attack on him to try to get to his matrix and dispose of him to put their own puppet Prime when they figured the thing was fake. In the alt timeline, the is the Council that kills him alonside the rest of the Senate. This guy just doesn't seem to have anyone on his team. But hey, he actually stays dead. Doesn't have any good shots in the comic so I had to use his reference sheet for this poll.
Sentinel Prime: The aforementioned puppet Prime that Proteus put on the job after killing Nominus. Also doesn't seem to do any legislation, but he does lead the Cybertronian Security forces, so that's something. Got Orion's boyfriend empurated and shadowplayed. The Council lost even more influence during his time. Megatron kills his whole senate and then him. He didn't really die and was wearing a suit the whole time, because he's really a servant of Onyx Prime that was waiting for his return. So it's revealed in an executived mandated-event in a plotline that you could erase and wouldn't really change the overall plot, but it allowed us to learn that he things romance is for people who are deranged.
Zeta Prime: Was friends with Shockwave who tought him such a trustworthy guy he left his boyfriend in Zeta's care. When Orion was this close to turning against the establisment, Zeta somehow becomes Prime after Megatron "kills" Sentinel and gets Orion to stay on his side only to constantly manipulate him and use him for propaganda. Pretends to be all cool and progressive and did technically do away with official functionism, but didn't fix Cybertron's inequality and secretly brainwashes people and other nasty stuff, but he is rulling. When he couldn't deal with the Decepticons he lost it and became worse until Orion got fed up and joined Megatron in killing him. Also actually stays dead. Pretty sure he only exists bc they killed Sentinel too early in the timeline. I have to constantly remind people who he is because they forget about him or get him confused with Sentinel.
