Write Your Own Story RNG

[Wakuzanym]

I was bored this afternoon, so I made a spreadsheet randomizer to create new "Write My Own Story" scenarios. The average scenario it creates is… average. Two or three characters (including the psychologist, cop, etc.), moderate intensity, medium-length moderate winter half-way through, and 52.5 days until the ceasefire (I like longer games :P). However, things are somewhat more likely to be harder than easier.

This can result in some pretty weird scenarios. Anton, alone, with a severe winter start? Good f-ing luck with that one.

The RNG will also list the 8-20 locations minimally required. Again, because it's random it may well create some weirdness: a short game with nothing but snipers and thugs or a relatively long game with no locations actively trying to kill you.

Anyway, link to the Google Sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vsHt8PVrKknkldXO08i4VtL1mXqcwKZUXJmGPZtQqxA/edit?usp=sharing

It's set up so anyone can view but not edit it (I hope), so I don't know that it will look at all random or just however it looked when I last closed it. You'll probably need to copy everything to a new Sheet. To force a new randomization, you need to change a cell. (For example by typing something into that top-left cell.) It's also set up so you can add to or get rid of those 'custom' characters. If you do that, only change things in the 'Chars 1' column; everything else updates itself. As it's set up, you can add up to ten more characters beyond the seven 'custom' characters. You know, so that you could potentially get your sociopathic dream team of Roman and three police officers completely by chance.
