Mayday

By Interactivities Ink, Ltd.
Players: 14
Genre: Communist comedy
Are
you a traitor to the glorious communist revolution? Do you uphold the
principles or have you been corrupted by the forces of Greed, Power, and
Corruption? And if you are loyal, can you ferret out the traitors before you
are sent to Siberia?
Mayday
is the primary holiday of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and of
communists throughout the world. It is a day of pride, of hope, and of
ambition. The decline of socialism means that it is also well down the path to
the isle of lost holidays, doomed to join St. Crispin’s Day and International
Talk Like a Pirate Day. Mayday is about the human condition, the frailty and
fragility which prevent us from achieving the goals we value. It is about both
ambition and disappointment.
Inspirations
include not only history but Arthur Miller’s The Crucible and Shirley Jackson’s The Lottery. Although it is not intended to refer to the ILF/SIL,
the Pentagon CCB, the career of Bill Clinton, Ted Kennedy, Howard Dean, or any
other committee of devoted and dedicated individuals which seem doomed by some
force stronger than fate or destiny to implode catastrophically, some readers
may find inspiration in these events.
