There is, before you, a tall corkboard. The game will be played in a number of rounds, depending on the amount of signups.
Every round, you will choose to place a thumbtack at one position. After all tacks have been placed, we will tally the scores for the round and add them to your total score. If someone else places a tack where you placed one, both tacks fall off, and score 0 points. After that, any and all remaining tacks will score point equal to the height of the tack, MINUS the difference of the height of the tack beneath it.
For example, Monty, Alex, Ani and Pizza are playing in a round of Thumbtacks. The scoreboard is 55 units high. Monty places his tack on 50. Pizza places his thumbtacks at 35. Alex places his thumbtack at 20, and Ani places his tack at 35. Pizza’s tack and Ani’s tack both fall off and earn 0 points. Monty earns 30 points (50 – 20) and Alex earns 20 points (20 – 0).
The player with the lowest
In the event of a tie, the person who scored the least amount of points in the current round is eliminated. If that still results in a tie, an extra elimination round is played between the tied players.
