Here's a guide for using Mythic GME and FU RPG by Mats Lintonsson .

I personally often use FU's dice system as an oracle instead of the yes/no-function of GME.
Mythic GME and FU certainly play nice together.

After some discussion about a collaborative solo-rpg game, I want to get a firm number of people who would participate and start getting email address. Respond to this thread, send me a PM, or email me at bmarkslash7 gmail com.

If only a couple of people are interested, I would propose a sequential game, where one person has an adventure and then passes the system to the next person in line.
If many people are interested, I would propose a simultaneous game, where people check out (and yes, return) resources to use in an adventure.

Alex Yari 's (fun and awesome) Un-solo experiment started me thinking about non-solo components for solo-rpging. One thing I thought about was exchanging characters or sending characters off to be in someone else's game. Another thing we could exchange is a rulebook (taken from Dyson Logos's awesomeizing, see https://plus.google.com/+DysonLogos/posts/af3QCyCLCYf). Within that rulebook, we could add house rules, change sections, include adventures that have occurred as well as characters that exist. The basic idea would be to use the rules and information in the book for your adventure or two, add and change whatever you wanted, and then send the rulebook to someone else.
Interested?

It isn't for me, I don't think, but he is including a free introduction solo adventure PDF.

So I had a couple of personal breakthroughs today.
So I had a couple of personal breakthroughs today.
First is the use of a dry erase surface. Writing on a paper has such a feel of permanence that I hesitated to simply jot things down as I played a session, so I kept getting drawn into prose which slowed down the action. However the new plexiglass on my wargame table also makes a great dry erase surface, which by its nature is transient. I was jotting and doodling away as I went, seeing my progress accumulate before my eyes.
The second was that I say down at the table with no plans or anterior motives. I didn't know the setting or the plot, much as I would were I setting down to a more traditional game with a GM. Roy cubes and the ME, and a few other tools lead the way. Here again the dry erase helped, because I simply jotted down the first logical thing that popped in my head.
I'll attach a couple of photos, including my untimely demise in a crypt I tried to shelter in during a sudden snow storm in th mountains. I was looking for a victim snatched by cultists, because apparently even random generators love the classics. Never found the poor soul.
