SETUP RULES

  • A game will be played with as many players as would like to sign up. I require that there be at least 20 players signed up to play before we begin.
  • Players are welcome to join whenever they'd like, but any player that starts after the first round has ended will start on the same level as the player in last place.

DA RULES

Wheaton's Law

Don't be a dick.

Object

  • The player with the lowest position when one player reaches the highest position (position seven) is the winner. If more than one player is tied for the winning position, those who've reached position seven are out of the game and the rest will continue until there is a clear winner.

How to Play

  • A category will be given each round such as "Name Five Pieces of Exercise Equipment" or "Which Player Reads the Most Novels." All players must then PM me their choices as answers for the current category.
  • I will give a deadline for PM submissions of your answers and, at deadline, will post them all. The point is not to give the correct answer(s), but to give the most popular answer(s).
  • Outside help (e.g. Internet searching and/or discussion of the current topic with other players) is disallowed; answers must be actual attempts to fit the category -- none of this giving of answers that don't fit just for laughs or to match others outside of the category.
  • If a player plans to be away from the website for a period of time, they are allowed to PM me in advance so that I may send them upcoming question(s) to answer preemptively.
  • Players that do not submit answers before the deadline will automatically drop a position in addition to the player with the lowest score. All players are given three "strikes". If you do not submit your answers before the deadline on three occasions, you will be dropped from the competition officially (although you are still welcome to continue playing for fun).
  • At a certain point based on moderator discretion, I may switch the game to be solely binary choice questions, to expedite the ending.


Scoring

  • All players start at the same position (position zero) and only move from this position if they have the lowest score in any given round.
  • If there is a tie for least number of points, all those involved in the tie move forward. If all players tie, all will move forward.
  • Players score zero points if they give an answer that matches no other player during a round.
  • Players that give the same answer score a total amount of points equivalent to the number of players that also gave that answer.
[/list]


Example Play

    CuddlyCaucasian to Xalxe via PM wrote:hmmm... my answers are
    dumbbells, stationary bike, barbells, treadmill, and pull-up bar
    !

    Thanks for bring this game back, btw. You were always my favorite <3

    kloud1516 to Xalxe via PM wrote:Did you know I am at Disney and am always doing lots of exercise to impress the princes?

    dumbbells, stationary bike, rowing machine, free weights, and swimming pool

    animorpherv1 to Xalxe via PM wrote:what is exercise lol

    Let's go with
    Pull-up bar, Stationary Bike, Barbells, Dumbbells, and Rowing Machine
    .

    I bet you use them all, you big hunk you. ;)

    Xalxe wrote:All three players have got their answers in. Here are the totals.

    Dumbbells (3) - CuddlyCaucasian, kloud1516, animorpherv1
    Stationary Bike (3) - CuddlyCaucasian, kloud1516, animorpherv1
    Barbells (2) - CuddlyCaucasian, animorpherv1
    Pull-up Bar (2) - CuddlyCaucasian, animorpherv1
    Rowing Machine (2) - kloud1516, animorpherv1
    Free Weights (0) - kloud1516
    Swimming Pool (0) - kloud1516
    Treadmill (0) - CuddlyCaucasian

    animorpherv1 scored 12 points.
    CuddlyCaucasian scored 10 points.
    kloud1516 scored 8 points.

    kloud1516 moves down a position this round for having the lowest score.

As it's Game X and I am Xalxe, I couldn't resist the first question.

Players may PM me their answers to sign up at any time! Once we have 20 players I will announce the deadline.

Question 1
) Name 3 words that begin with the letter X.
