SETUP RULES

• The game is played in teams of two players. Players may find a partner before signing up, or they may allow themselves to be paired off by me. Feel free to join the queue at any time. I will not oblige any team preferences (meaning that you either pair yourself off, play with who I give you, or don't play at all).
  
• The "guesser" and "clue-giver" roles will be decided by the teams prior to the game. If there is no preference, a two-sided dice tag will be flipped to decide which player will play what role.
  
• Games will be played to the best of five. The first team to get three passwords correct (
  ☑ ☑ ☑
  ) will win the game.
  
• A team does not have to stay together, but all rankings will occur by teams. For example, if Player A and Player B win two matches together, this A & B team will be ranked for two wins. If Player B swaps with Player C, making a team of Player A and Player C, then this will count as a new, unranked team (regardless of Player A or Player C's previous team rankings).
  
• Winners may continue to play until they are beaten by a challenging team or retire.
  
• If more than two teams are in the waiting queue, champions will be "retired" after 5 wins, and two new teams will battle it out, the old champions are welcome to join again at the bottom of the queue. If there are only 1 or 2 teams waiting, champions will continue until a win while there are more teams waiting or defeat.
  
• Use of outside resources (e.g. dictionary, thesaurus) is not permitted.

GAME RULES

(Taken from and modified from the previous games)

Matching

• The Moderator will decide on a password. The password will be an English word which will be given to both of the clue-giver players. I will then use a two-sided dice tag to determine which team gives the first clue (1 being the first team signed up/champions, 2 being the second team/challengers).
  
• The first clue-giver will then post a
  one word clue
  in
  bold
  tags, preferably. The contents cannot be more than one word, nor can they be hyphenated or elaborated on within the post in anyway. The word cannot be the password, a made-up word, a proper noun or "too similar" to the password
  
• If the other team believes the clue breaks the rules in anyway, they are allowed to appeal to the Moderator for an impartial decision. The Moderator also has authority to stop play at any time and give both clue-givers a new password for any reason.
  
• The guesser from the same team tries to guess what the password was from the clue-giver's clue. They guesser will then post a
  one word guess
  in
  bold
  tags, preferably.
  
• Each team gets three turns to guess the word. If the guesser's guess is correct during the first turn then that team scores six points and ends the round. The guess can have a different form than the password, so if the word is "fish", the words "fishing" and "fished" would be acceptable.
  
• If the guesser is incorrect, we move on to the next team which will follow the same procedure. If the password is guess during this turn then that team scores five points and ends the round.
  
• We continue on in this pattern, subtracting one point for each clue. If no correct guess has been made after both teams have had three turns, the word is revealed and nobody scores a point. The round is replayed and the points remain the same.

Scoring

• During the game itself, the first person to tick three passwords will be declared the winner of the game.
  
• Rankings will go by wins first, then total points, and then losses.

I forgot about PersonalIdiot!

He was remembered by your rules post.

[Cheery Dog]

CD's wiki is my favorite wiki.

Kanye got rid off all it's previous ugly for me.

We're still waiting on the last of dv's game before we start here.

[Cheery Dog]

Oh look it's my turn to start.

The Bulge and Bins with be playing McMenno and Malakittens, could I have preferences for who would like clues please.

[Cheery Dog]

Can we still sign up while the game is ongoing?

If so, /in with...whoever is available

YOu sign up to join the queue as listed in the first post.

[Cheery Dog]

Since neither of the challengers committed to something, I'm going to coin flip.

McMenno 1 and Mala 2 (for who will give the clues)

Original Roll String: 1d2

1 2-Sided Dice: (2) = 2

Password will be sent tomorrow sometime, if you feel the coin flip was in error, you may swap.

[Cheery Dog]

and now flipping to see who will start us off.

1. Bins/Bulge
2. McMenno/Mala

Original Roll String: 1d2

1 2-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

[Cheery Dog]

Implementing Prod rules.

I'll try issuing prods at 48 hours, and then if you don't take your turn 48 hours after that, your move will be skipped. Meaning if a clue is posted, the guesser will have to guess without it, or if the guess isn't given, the next clue will come from the other team.

Unless there's better options?

[Cheery Dog]

Bins gets the point.

Team	Passwords	Points
Bins & The Bulge	☑ □ □	4
McMenno & Malakittens	□ □ □	0

Mala will start the next round.

[Cheery Dog]

Password is only one word, and all of them well be.

Unless there's better options?

I know I didn't prod again, but I think it still applies to the prod he was given before posting.

[Cheery Dog]

The password still isn't that.

If whoever is next (PMs shortly) could tell me who is going where, we'll be able to start the next game tomorrow.

[Cheery Dog]

and yeah I'm not sure why Mala went for using Kayak, besides just that it was there. When I selected vessel as the password I was just expecting things like ship/boat to be the clues.

I was hoping MTD would have managed a reply in that time. Maybe I should just delevop some other rule

First Clue Giver

Original Roll String: 1d2

1 2-Sided Dice: (2) = 2

1. The Bulge
2. StrangeCoug

[Cheery Dog]

Not responding when he's picked up pretty much is an indication of that, or it is in my mind.

[Cheery Dog]

The Bulge hasn't picked up his prod, so

@Bins

, do you want to attempt to go without a clue, select a new teammate for this game, or step down completely and send the next team on the list in?

[Cheery Dog]

Economics is close enough to economy to count!

[Cheery Dog]

Our is it?

I think I'm going to have to cancel points from this because I revealed early or take away from last round as solution/solve was of the same similarity (but I wouldn't have given solution as correct if it came up then)

[Cheery Dog]

Rebuking Solve, allowing Economics.

Solution was given as a clue, therefore the reason it's gone is "Too Similar"

[Cheery Dog]

The extra T doesn't stop that being the correct answer.

The Bulge will start us off again

[Cheery Dog]

That should give them the game, CD.

DV and BPC, you're up next!

[Cheery Dog]

It means that I've forgotten to update it (you should currently be at 1200%). Wins/Losses times 100% so that I'm not stuck with giving someone that only played one game that best win percentage.
I'm not actually sure why I've got any of those records.

Back /in, mod! You ought to know this! I will play until AcRv dies.

I assume that's something that was in DV's game thread that I ignored. Best to just make sure by /inning each time you need it anyway.

1. Bulge
2. Mit

[Cheery Dog]

I'm not going to force retire bins/bulge on a forfeit.

[Cheery Dog]

It would work if I can get someone to do that. I was going to come ask you if it was forfeit from your prospective as well before moving on.

[Cheery Dog]

I'll prod Bulge then so this game can continue.

[Cheery Dog]

Still one possible point.

Next password is being sent out, Wickan will start.

[Cheery Dog]

I'll try to fix that tonight when bli update that opening post with stuff again.

Looks like we need a new password in here though.

[Cheery Dog]

I think I might understand what could be going on, but I'm leaving this as it currently is for the time being.

[Cheery Dog]

I think you should attempt to guess at the current password first so we can see if you actually need a new partner this game

[Cheery Dog]

We do need to get you a new partner now then. ( unless the next password is also guessed straight away)

The two lower teams were formed by individual ins if you're looking to steal someone.

[Cheery Dog]

I've given the next password to Wickan.
Xof's partner will get it once I have confirmation from someone that they're willing to take it. (I don't have anybody in mind at the moment)

[Cheery Dog]

To clarify, whose turn is it?

It's now yours. I'll update the OP.

My problem.

This was the correct password, and I gave out another before posting here.

[Cheery Dog]

Reminder to self to do scores here before giving out the next word

[Cheery Dog]

I should stop looking at this from my phone, I forget about doing stuff when I get to the computer (although I guess 12 hours isn't as bad as it has been in the past)

Champions win again!

[Cheery Dog]

RedCoyote & AcRv will be the first team to return into my arena as we head into Game 9.

[Cheery Dog]

RC possibly hasn't been on the site for 3 weeks. Bugger

[Cheery Dog]

by the way, me and CMM want to /in again. Felt I should announce it if there was any uncertainty haha

I think I already put you back in the OP, but I guess it's good to have it confirmed.

Anyway, coin flip time

Original Roll String: 1d2

1 2-Sided Dice: (2) = 2

Wickan 1, RedCoyote 2

[Cheery Dog]

That was apparently a tough set of words, is that the lowest winning score ever?

DeasVail and lilith2013 are next up.

[Cheery Dog]

So this is PeregrineV's and Wickan's retirement game. Can they finish it undefeated?

Flipping for who will start first

Original Roll String: 1d2

1 2-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

1. Wickan
2. DeasVail

[Cheery Dog]

Are we retiring if we win?

I put in the 5 wins rule, and they don't have to be as carry over champions. You can of course still join the queue again once that happens.

[Cheery Dog]

That's six guesses so the password has expired.

I'm not sure how Wicksn's clues actually relate. Even if verbose was the closest to the password. (In correct letters)

[Cheery Dog]

Team	Passwords	Points
PeregrineV & Wickan	☑ □ □	5
DeasVail & lilith2013	□ □ □	0

[Cheery Dog]

We appear to have lost Wickan (hasn't picked up the next password I sent last week)

[Cheery Dog]

The champions are still on form after that gap.

[Cheery Dog]

(but I'm not)

New password has been sent out.
There was something about my phone connecting badly when I posted that last message and me never checking it actually went through. (which it didn't)

[Cheery Dog]

I got lazy on the assumption B_E has flaked and the rules I wrote when I started say I'm meant to retire the champions after their 5 wins.

Although I'm not sure why I let the OP get that far behind.

[Cheery Dog]

I can start rerunning it if CD is getting tired of it.

Since I still haven't done anything about this, I guess I can give it back to you?
