Is it possible to play the games Paranoia or Everyone is John, online?

it's possible to do any game on line, why would it matter?

Both involve a bit of secrecy so PM's to the GM should serve as pretty useful

Oh, good. I asked because I didn't know if it was possible, with the secrecy and bidding things. I could see Paranoia working, but what about Everyone is John? Would that have to be done in turns?

I believe any conference platform made for gaming should work. They are basically a chat room with tools like dice rolling and player/dm identification and character sheet sharing. Most also include, as any decent chat, private messages.

I agree that it should work just fine, the only drawback is you can't see the expression of that dang commie mutant terrorist that you are unobtrusively taking out with your mutation given to you by the commie terrorists :)

Works best somewhere with "whisper" functionality*, like Myth-Weavers.
