Q: How many players?
A: Any odd amount will do, though I have the right to terminate the signup process at anytime when the player-count reaches 10 or more.
-
Q: How do we play?
A: Each round, each player has 3 "voting points". He may give those points to other players, by posting "Give X point(s) to <name>" until the target number of points are achieved. You can't give points to yourself, and you can't sit on your points. You
MUST
give them to someone else within an allotted time-limit, or you get a strike. Once all points have been distributed, the player with the most points becomes the Executioner. He chooses to eliminate someone from the game, by posting an execution scene. Then, a new round will begin, with 1 less player. You must write flavor for your kill. Failure to write flavor will result in a "Flavor Strike" and a prod. Two Flavor Strikes, and you die. It doesn't have to be creative, nor does it have to make sense!-
Q: What is the proper way to give points?
A: Post in Bold, like this.
I give __ points to ________.
-
Q: What's the length of a round?
A: The point-giving stage lasts a maximum of 4 days, or until someone hits the target score. (After that stage, if you have leftover points, you get a strike. Three strikes, and you die instantly). The execution deliberations last a maximum of 2 days. If the Executioner fails to post their kill, then one prod shall be given. After 24 hours, if the Executioner still fails to post their kill, they will be
MODKILLED,
If a player is active through 3 rounds consecutively, they receive an anti-strike. This will either remove a strike already dealt, or shield against a strike.
Only one anti-strike may be held at a time.
-
Q: What happens when there are only 2 players left? How can an Executioner be chosen?
A: The players previously eliminated from the game become the jury. They vote for the
WINNER!
-
Q: What happens at the end of the round, if two or more players are tied for points?
A: The other players in the game hold a vote to make one of the tied players an Executioner.
-
Q: What if this vote is tied too?
A: The player most recently executed casts the deciding vote. If there is none (due to Round 1 or modkill) then the elected is who got there first.
-
Q: What if there are three people, and all of them are tied?
A: The recently executed picks the executioner
-
Q: So, basically it's a game of politics?
A: Well, duh.
-
Q: Can you post the thread and play too?
A: I don't see a rule against it
-
Q: The rounds are going too fast!
Fine. If you have leftover points by the time majority is reached, and the round has lasted no less than twelve hours, you will not receive an activity strike. If the round lasts less than 12 hours, down to the second, you will receive no strike, meaning a round lasting 11 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds OR LESS will NOT net you a strike.

You may take back your points after you have given them until all votes are in, or a majority is reached
You may not take back a vote after you have given it, excluding the Final 2
You may not take back a vote after you have given it, excluding the Final 2
The champion of last round (animorpherv1) is automatically pre-in'd. He may choose to /out at anytime before the game starts
Players may divide their flavor up to 3 parts. This is in case people have an idea but not enough time to write the whole thing down. Deadline will be extended by 12 hours when the 1st part is posted, and 6 hours when the 2nd part is posted.
There will be no suicides. None. Should you choose to kill yourself, you'll kill the first player alive below you instead. (It's also against the spirit of the game)
