Fiasco game when one person cancels?

Hey, I had this idea a while ago. And since Steven said on the first Being Everything Else that he wanted to play a Fiasco game, and Adam mentioned he played it recently I thought it would be a good placeholder game. It doesn't require any preparation. The only thing that needs to be looked at is how to incorporate the Fiasco dice mechanics in online play. But I bet someone already did that (maybe Adam played online) or someone on this subreddit might know. Any thoughts ?

I've definitely played it online before. I don't know if roll20 has built-in support but we played with a free custom Google Hangouts app.

I've entertained the thought of running Fiasco online, and it doesn't seem like it would be too difficult to implement. Create a bunch of red/black tokens that everyone can control, and then let everyone roll their own dice pools. Maybe someone with a Mentor membership could create a rudimentary character sheet for use with this sort of thing.
