Round 3 Challenge


In this challenge we will be playing Majority Rules with a fun twist! Your goal is to try to respond to a series of questions the way you believe the majority of the group would respond. Unlike regular majority rules, if you are in the majority, congrats in theory you are safe! You will have two or three choices each round.

The goal is to guess what you believe the MAJORITY of people would guess, not what you personally would pick (unless you think you are of the personal opinion of the majority).

1. At some point in the next 24 hours, please fill out this link. You will select “Starting” to start your time and “Finishing” to submit your guesses. There are 25 prompts, but it shouldn’t take you more than 20-30 minutes to fill out, if that. (probably less).

2. Once you’ve submitted, you are done! Congrats! Just be sure to fill this out before the 24 hours are up or you could be automatically nominated.

3. If at any point during results all players except for 1 guess the same answer, all players will continue to the next question and the 1 will be up for elimination.

4. If at any point there is an even split, all players will move onto the next question as there is no “majority”.

5. If at any point one person is already nominated and only two players remain, the player of the two that submitted the slowest will be the nominee.

6. Except for the above three rules, anyone who is in the majority in any round is safe! Only players in the minority will continue onto the next round until only 2 players remain or we have 2 nominees.

7. DO NOT DISCUSS THIS CHALLENGE WITH ANY OTHER PLAYER.

We will do our best to be able to answer questions but cannot guarantee we will be around when you start this challenge, so be sure to get all of your questions answered before you begin :] Best of luck players!

Your deadline is tomorrow at 9pm EST: (expired on 2022-01-21 21:00:00)

Hello everyone!

We have one rule to add to our current ruleset going forward.

|10| Anyone who fails to vote by a deadline as stated by the moderators will be announced as having not voted and the vote will proceed. Only votes cast will count. Multiple offenses of not voting could result in consequences as decided at the moderators discretion. The point of playing this game is to vote when you can vote and actively not voting goes against the spirit of this game. Please vote :)

This will be edited into the main ruleset momentarily.

Hello everyone!

It's time for some friggin results! Tonight you get to deal with me mwahahahahahaha.

Let's not dilly dally shall we?

Prompt 1 asked you to pick between Cake or Death


Let's see who said
Death
first:































No one!



Congrats you all are in the majority and are sa-

Oh wait right. Because no one got it wrong although you are safe, we have to put someone on the block, so you all are back up for Prompt 2!

Prompt 2 asked you to pick between Up or Down.


Let's see who picked
Up
:



































Everyone!


Congrats you are all sa-

Oh right we just did this.

Onto Prompt 3 which asked you to pick between Right or Left.


Let's see who picked
Left.

































Ariel picked Left
and....



































no one else did :(

This means that Ariel is for sure on the block. But what about the rest of you?

"3. If at any point during results all players except for 1 guess the same answer, all players will continue to the next question and the 1 will be up for elimination."

This means that we still need someone to join Ariel on the block.

Prompt 4 asked you to choose between In or Out.


Let's see who picked
Out
.








































bipolarchemist picked Out.












































Silverclaw picked Out.


































and
Ethel picked Out!


This means if you are not Ethel, Silverclaw or bipolarchemist (Or Ariel rip rip :( ), congrats you officially have survived being on the block this round.

Now we are looking for the next 2-1 majority between the final 3.

Prompt 5 asked you to choose between Bulbasaur, Charmander & Squirtle.


Let's see who picked
Squirtle
.








































No one of the remaining three picked
Squirtle
.

Let's see who picked
Bulbasaur
.












































No one!!!! This means
all three picked Charmander
and move onto the next prompt.

Prompt 6 asked you to pick between Chicken and Beef.


Let's see who picked
Chicken.




















































You all did!


Three still vying to avoid the block, all three have answered the exact way up until this point. Will Prompt 7 finally determine the 2nd person on the block?

For prompt 7 you had to pick between Chocolate and Vanilla.


Ethel chose...















































Chocolate.


bipolarchemist chose...














































Vanilla!


This is it folks.
Congrats to Silverclaw who is officially not on the block
as whichever choice he has decides the 2-1 majority this prompt. However, what did he pick and who else is safe?!

Silverclaw picked...









































































Chocolate!!!


This means
congrats to Ethel, you have also avoided the block.


Our final blockees are Ariel (who lost prompt 3) and bipolarchemist (who lost prompt 7).


Votes are due tomorrow at 9pm EST: (expired on 2022-01-22 21:00:00)

Round 4 Challenge


In this game of Scattergories, you will be given 20 categories, each with a letter. (I & L just to show how i and l will appear). Your job is to come up with a single 3+ letter word that starts with that letter that fits that category. For example, if you got “Food, R” you could put rice. You could also put raspberry. Either one is fine. However, "raspberry ice cream" wouldn't be okay because it's more than one word. However, if two people give the exact same answer for each category, no points will be earned by those who answered the exact same. You will want to do this as quickly as possible.

1. There are a total of 20 points that can be earned in this challenge. This assumes you get no duplicate answers.

2. You are allowed to use whatever outside resources you want! Aren’t we nice? :)


3. Although you are allowed to submit “Starting” as many times as you want, you may only submit “Finishing” once. Once you finish, your time will be locked. Your time will start from the first time you select “Starting” and hit submit.

4. You will have a 1 hour max out time. Any guesses submitted after 1 hour will not count. If there is a score tie in this challenge, the person who submitted slower will be put on the block. You’re incentivized to go as fast as possible for that reason!

5. You will have until tomorrow at 9pm, (expired on 2022-01-23 21:00:00) to complete this challenge.

6. Just so you know, being on the block might not necessarily be a bad thing in the near future ;)

When you are ready to begin, you will click this link.

We will do our best to be able to answer questions but cannot guarantee we will be around when you start this challenge, so be sure to get all of your questions answered before you begin :)

Hello everyone! Results time <3

Let's just dive right into it because we spent a lot of time calculating this and researching all of your very colorful answers. D3f and I had to make a number of judgement calls based on what was an acceptable response and what wasn't. I don't really want to take a bunch of time explaining everything we didn't accept, so if you have questions, let me know. This was...an interesting experience to judge. We were pretty lenient this challenge. Just take that into consideration when reading these results. we were also pretty lax on spelling since that wasn't a stipulated rule.

In addition...
Silverclaw opted to submit "*shrugs*" for every response in every category and as it fit none of the categories he has submitted a score of 0. As such I have left him out of all the rest of the categories below.

I have double checked everything I've posted above and we calculated from a google doc so it's possible that via the powers of dyslexia I might have fudged something in this public post. Both d3f and I verified the scores before posting so if something looks wrong, please let me know, it's likely a typo from me. Thank you for patience.

Thanks Malkon for scoring this challenge, I know it was a shitty amount of work but I wanted to make sure we were as consistent as possible when it came to scoring.

CHALLENGE(?) FIVE


Do you remember when we said “being on the block might not necessarily be a bad thing” in the last challenge? Well that comes into play now! The person who survived the block last time is now immune and will begin a chain vote. The next name they say publicly is safe. That person will then choose someone to be safe, and so on and so forth. When we get down to the final 4 players, one will have just been chosen to be safe and will choose one final person to be safe. The final two people not chosen will be the two nominations for the round.

1. Please don’t be a jerk for this challenge. Although there is no time limit on when names can be submitted, the idea is for this not to take forever and to keep within a 24 hour period. Please try to have some idea of what you are doing before you are chosen to be safe so that we aren’t here forever. If we start to find people are taking too long, we may interject and put a time limit on this, but we really don’t want to because of time zones. So until you are safe, please try to check regularly and make your decisions quickly.

2. Once you are safe and make your pick, there’s nothing else you specifically have to do for this challenge.

3. All choices will be made publicly,
bolded and in this forum thread
, so you don’t need to wait for a moderator and just post yourself. If you see someone else post “I choose [insert name here]” in bold, that can be assumed as a final submission and the person named can go without needing confirmation from the moderators.

4. We will do our best to update the list as we are around and able to do so, but if we aren’t around please keep track yourself. Nothing’s going to be worse than picking someone else who is already safe again and then things get awkward if your choices are outed and we go back and are like “soooooo that’s not a valid choice” because then we have to untangle your tangled web. Please pay attention.

5. If we find a mistake, we will back track the choices to the last correct submission.

Ethel When you are ready to make your first choice, go ahead and post in the thread publicly!

We will do our best to be able to answer questions but cannot guarantee we will be around for all of this challenge, so be sure to get all of your questions answered before you make your choice.

VashtaNeurotic
Aronis
Ariel
