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
  • Xalxe wrote:Okay! Everyone, PM me five pieces of exercise equipment. Your deadline is 3 days... go!
    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.

Forgot something pretty critical xD It's in the OP now.

Also, while we wait on 18 more players, first question:

Question 1
) Name five things that you prefer to buy in person rather than online.

A deadline will be announced once we have 20 players.

Do I REALLY suck? That's up to you to decide.

Retiring from LSG's and Mish Mash, for the most part. If you want to contact me, I suggest going outside and enjoying what the world has to offer, instead.

Definitely DID suck, in the end...Probably.

I believe there's more than enough in my inbox to get going, so deadline will be in (expired on 2017-08-14 21:23:59) from now.
Scratch that, I'm still short one.

The question is being scrapped in favor of a new one; the reason for this is based on my misunderstanding on processing submissions. There will be no more prompts to be more specific from here on out. To speed up the game, so long as you are /in or submitted an answer, you are still recognized as in the game and will be subject to a prod if you're about to miss the deadline.

Question 1
) Name five movies released in the last 10 years that you think everyone has watched.
