RULES:
The game starts with 15 players, each of whom have 3 lives. Each player has been assigned a numbered position by random.org. In the first round, a question is asked to each player (every player's question will be posted at the same time). A correct answer to a question keeps the lives intact. An incorrect answer means a life is lost. This is then repeated with one crucial difference: if a player answers their question incorrectly after getting their first question wrong, they are automatically eliminated from the game.
Round 2 starts with the player with the lowest number that has not been eliminated. An incorrect answer costs them a life and passes control to the player with the next highest number. A correct answer gives the player the right to nominate any of the other players to face the next question. A correct answer from the nominated player gives them the right to nominate; an incorrect answer costs that player a life and gives control back to the player who nominated them.
NOTE: You cannot nominate the same player two questions in a row, nor can you nominate the same player that nominated you immediately after gaining control.
Round 2 continues until only three players have lives remaining; they advance to Round 3.
At the start of round 3, each player is given 1 point for each life they had remaining at the end of Round 2. All three players are restored to three lives. The round begins with a series of questions on the buzzer. All correct answers in the round are worth 10 points, and an incorrect answer still costs a life. After a player reaches 30 points, the player breaking that threshold is given the option to either take a question for themselves or nominate another player to face the question. (The note above does not apply here.) If a nominated player answers incorrectly, control stays with the player who nominated them; if a player gives themself a question and answers incorrectly, the next question is asked on the buzzers for control.
Three incorrect answers eliminates a player REGARDLESS OF THEIR SCORE.
Only 40 questions are available in the round. If multiple players remain after the last question, after converting any remaining lives into points (10 for each life left), the highest score wins. If at any point two players are eliminated, the remaining player automatically wins, although they are still required to continue until they finish the last question or run out of lives.
NOTES:
Players may appear in consecutive games, but they must sit out a third game before playing again.
Deadlines are 24 hours for everything (though this will be relaxed if circumstances dictate it). If you miss a deadline for a question, you will lose a life; if you miss a nomination deadline, the dice will decide who faces the next question.
