Boggle: The Game! (Season 2 Signups!)

Now making its return to Mish Mash, it's time for...

Image

You guessed it right...Boggle!


General Rules:
1: Play to have fun, and to win.
2: All results are final, but if you think I've made a mistake feel free to correct me.
3: You may not use any Internet sources to find words except those used for this game.
4: We will be operating using the Merriam Webster dictionary as found online at m-w.com.
5: Do not edit any posts containing submissions. Any post that is edited at all will have every word in it voided.
6: Don't abuse any rules, if you think it's questionable to do something, than either don't do it or just ask.

Game-Specific Rules:
1: All answers will be posted through a private topic that will be assigned to you. Only you and I will have access to it.
2: Each round will last 72 hours, and tabulation afterward will be posted within 24 hours. During each round, once and once only, you will click on the Google Form. Once the form is submitted with your name, you will have exactly ten minutes (I can see exactly) to post in the private topic your submissions.
3: All submissions must be in before the 10 minutes (exactly, both the Google Form and the PT will show me a time) have elapsed. Any submissions after that will not be counted.
4: You are submitting any words that can be found by moving through the board that is posted, from letter to letter vertically, horizontally, or diagonally. Letters can be repeated if gone through twice. For example, if you have the letters A-S-K, you can spell "ASKS" but you cannot spell "ASS" only given those three letters.
5: Words will be scored on the scale below:
Spoiler:
2-letter or 3-letter words: 0 points, cannot be submitted
4-letter words: 2 points
5-letter words: 4 points
6-letter words: 8 points
7-letter words: 12 points
Longer than 7 letters: 20 points

Game Format:
1: Each round, every player still in the competition will compete in one puzzle.
2: Based on the amount of people participating, a certain amount of players with the lowest scores (or who don't submit) will be eliminated: this number will be announced when the round begins.
3: The last round will always be between two players (barring issues caused by non-submissions), and the player with the highest score in this round will be the winner of the game.

Signups will be up until Friday night, at which time the first round will begin!

Champions:
Season 1: Chevre
Season 2: ???

Season 2 Players:
Papi Bear
RedCoyote
Cheery Dog
Aronis
Chevre

Probably not, chances are the post with it will have the deadline there too though.

Well I'm going to have a decent amount of work to do, so I should just be within the allotted 24 hours?

In post 4, Nobody Special wrote:I am confused. Rule 2 says within ten minutes, but Rule 3 says within 15 minutes. Which is it? (Or am I epically dense and those are two separate things?)


It's ten minutes. It was going to be 15, but I changed it to 10 in one place and forgot to in the other.

Okay, I checked with the mods and we will be operating with Private Topics. Also, modified the scoring amounts.

All people who have already signed up have been assigned a Private Topic. If anybody is having trouble accessing theirs (They're locked intentionally), just poke me.

Okay, everybody has submitted for Round One. Sorry about the delay. Time for the results!

With the winning score, a whopping 113 points, we have...
Spoiler:
Chevre!

Coming in second, with 93, we have...

Spoiler:
RedCoyote!

In third, with 69 points, we have...

Spoiler:
Cheery Dog.

In fourth, just narrowly being edged out by Cheery Dog, with 67 points,

Spoiler:
Axxle.

We will switch gears now, to the bottom player. In last place, with no points (submitted after their ten minutes was up, but would have been eliminated anyway) is...

Spoiler:
Pirate Mollie. Thanks for playing.

In fifth place, squeaking by with 45 points is...

Spoiler:
Nobody Special.

The final reveal comes down to Tatsuya Kaname and Feirei. One of them scored 41 points, and the other only 33. Tatsuya, you scored...
33. I'm sorry, but that's the end of the road. Meaning Feirei is safe!


Information for the next round in the next post.

Okay, it's time for Round Two! Once again, the bottom two positions will be eliminated, which will leave us with the Final Four after this round.

We will use the same form, which is located here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1djCBw8 ... WqdlqjbNY/
The submission received page now contains the Boggle puzzle for the second round. Please do me a favor and make a post in your forum before you begin so I can draw the line between the two rounds.

Three days, deadline is Friday night at 6pm EDT (3pm PDT).

I had to go to the bathroom then leave. I have my priorities in order :P

Plus it's not the end of the world if you don't, just saves me maybe ten seconds of effort.

I screwed up in the spreadsheet I was using the the scores. I probably gave people five for a five-letter word instead of four. I'll sort it out when I get home in a few hours.
