Title: Safe Words 15 - Fast Food Frenzy. Game Over.
Post by: Khushrenada on January 25, 2020, 06:30:22 PM
The Khushrenada Corporation activated its focus group testing branch with the mission to figure out which fast food entity they should align themselves on based on the results from the testing done by the branch. The branch then went about rounding up participants to engage in a study on the effects of fast food. They created an online contest in which people could solve clues to find golden tickets that would make them a winner to participate in the study. The winners would be taken to a modern-state-of-the-art living complex where all there needs would be looked after free of charge and they'd even be given a nice living allowance. However, no one entered the contest.

Thus, the focus group then went with the old tried and true method and kidnapped people off the street into a cargo van and then locked them up in a nasty dungeon facility. They based their targets off those that participated in the Khushrenada Fast Food thread. (http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/forums/index.php?topic=32745.0) The participant they really wanted, BlackNMild2k1, was alas not at his office when the Focus Group Appropriation Team arrived as he was out for lunch at the time. After rounding up a few of the so-called NWR Fast Food experts, it was decided that a couple less experienced fast food eaters should also be acquired to make sure all variables were accounted for so the team quickly went around the block and grabbed a couple folks at the wrong place and wrong time.

The Board of the Khushrenada Corporation had narrowed down the field of candidates they'd be willing to align with to 9 companies and sent this list of to the Focus Group branch. The head of the Focus Group, Khushrenada the Clone the sixth, then informed the prisoners participants of what was happening to them.

"You nine lucky individuals have been choosen for this all-expenses paid stay at our third world class facilities. During this stay, you will only have the following options for meal time," explained KtC6 who then listed the nine fast food places that were acceptable. "To make things fair, you shall all be allowed to choose from time to time what you wish as we go down the order of cell... er, uh suites that you are staying in. After a period of time and testing, our crack of team of researchers that will be studying you will come to a result based on this test and you will be free to go at that point. Now, then. Let's get started. You there, in cell, I mean, suite one. What would you like to eat?"

A quick reiteration of the rules and how the game is played

There is a list of companies that will be used throughout the game. At the start of each round, the player would be the last to select for that round will secretly select a company from the list. That choice will be kept hidden from the remaining players and sent to me via pm. That selected word will then be the bomb word for that round.

After the bomb word is chosen, the remaining players must all choose an option from the list. Every time an option is chosen, it is removed from the list for that round. No two players can select the same word in the same round. If a player does not choose the bomb word from the list when they make their selection then they are safe for that round and move on to the next. If a player selects the bomb word, they are eliminated from the game and the bomb word is removed from the list for the rest of the game.

If none of the remaining players choose the bomb word then the player who selected it to start the round is forced to choose their own bomb word selection and is eliminated. The game is played until there is only one player still left standing and that player is declared the winner.


Order of players chosen

For this game, I sort of alluded to it in the opening story post but I used the Fast Food thread (http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/forums/index.php?topic=32745.0) I created many years ago as the basis for creating the order selection. I took a look at the number of posts each player who signed up made in that thread. I then put everyone in the order from least amount of posts to the most amount of posts. Both Steefosaurus and TOPHATANT123 had 0 posts in that thread. Therefore, I then looked at the date each registered and put TOPHATANT123 at the top since he had registered before Steefosaurus and therefore has had more of an opportunity to post in that thread and yet has not done so.  >:( Better start posting in more of my threads people! You may one day by glad you did like ShyGuy.


Message reminders

Once I get ShyGuy's choice for the Round 1 bomb word, I will send a pm to all players alerting them to the fact the game has begun even though some of you may have seen this thread up already. I will most likely send out a pm when it is a players turn to choose for their first choice just to help everyone get back in the rhythm of checking in for Safe Words. After that, it is up to the players to remember to check in on their own unless they notify me to send them a reminder when it is their turn to choose.


Waiting for a selection

A generous time of 2 days (48 hours) is given for a player to select a phrase. If they've requested for me to send them a reminder when it is their turn, a message will be sent to alert them of that fact 24 hours before their time to choose is up. If a choice has not been made by the end of the total 48 period, the player will be automatically given the bomb word choice and removed from the game. The 48 hours begins from the timestamp of the post I make in this thread asking for their selection in the round.


Game on.

Never be that hungry. Welp. Based on the disastrous results to lolmonade's bowels after mixing curly fries with onion rings while you have the meats, the Khushrenada Corporation has decided to distance itself from a partnership with Arby's. We shall now clean things up in order to start Round 2 of the testing.

I'll bow out of the game as the rules states, but I won't stand for this blasphemy - Arby's is delicious and top-tier fast food.

Oh, you have to give it up for that Simpsons line though even if you like Arby's. One of the all-time greatest burns. I'd debate you a bit about how great Arby's is but I feel like the fact that you went down first for liking Arby's is all the defense I need. Hi-yooooooooo!


Meanwhile, Insanolord is safe. Enjoy those cool treats.

Next up is BeautifulShy who can select from the following menu options:

McDonald's
Subway
Burger King
Wendy's
Taco Bell
KFC
Papa John's Pizza

Lets go with Wendy's.   Hopefully my sister gives me luck for working there.

The thing with Arbys is everything is a cut above except their centerpiece. Weird lunch meat style roast beef. Great fries, great chicken, top tier sauces. But then the paper thin piles of meat which I admit I get a hankering for once in awhile, but the beef is several notches below. Also their salads are worse than McDonalds and Wendys.

Post by: ShyGuy on January 28, 2020, 10:22:17 AM
McDonalds made a big improvement when they switched to the fresh quarter pound beef patties, saving them from being a bottom of the barrel fast food establishment. Their fries are well regarded although I think they have went down in quality, and their breakfast sandwiches have gotten very small. I have a weakness for their chocolate chip cookies.

Player choice is a thing.  You decided to not show up for the Mafia game and you chose to select McDonalds.

In any case not everyone can win each game. Good Game Stratos.

I was so worried last round since if the bomb word wasn't found when it came to my turn it would be either me or Nickmitch selecting the bomb word and that was that.  Phew.

Everyone knows the best pizza is your local pizzeria or Dominos. Silly Papa Johns.

Hahaha. Yep. That's why I threw it in here instead of Pizza Hut. I kind of thought Arby's would be more the "joke" choice at first but then I thought I'd add Papa John's instead for an even more of punching bag type option. However, no one really bothered much with making jokes or comments about it or Arby's so..... *shrugs*

Oh my goodness! I suppose you probably eat your Snickers bar straight from the wrapper also. Although your methods of food consumption are uncouth, you are still safe.

Hmm pondering my options...
Hmm Wendy's TOPHATANT123 might pick because of my sister working there and using that info against me.  So no Wendy's
Subway while good eats and healthy the spokes person isn't the best.
Dairy Queen might be an option but I was going to pick that in the previous round so no to that. 

So I am left with Burger King.   Hopefully the Impossible Whopper will lead me past this round along with the 2 for $6 deal with the Impossible Whopper, Whopper, and Spicy Chicken Sandwich and Grilled Chicken Sandwich.  Tasty.

Bomb word has been selected. We are now at the halfway point of this game. In an odd twist, with BeautifulShy going down last round, all the players who were an even number in the selection rotation were all eliminated first leaving just the odd number players remaining. So 1,3,5,7,9 are still in and 2,4,6,8 are gone. But the odds are going to have to start taking each other out now.

First up this round is nickmitch. He can choose from the following favorite menu options:

Subway
Wendy's
Taco Bell
KFC
Dairy Queen

Papa Johns is a middle of the road fast food pizza place. It's not bad but has few things that set it apart. The cheese is perhaps the most bland of the national chains, and it doesn't have any sides that really stand out. One thing I do like is the garlic butter sauce that comes with each and every pizza. I feel like the use to heat this up when you got your pizza but now it comes cold.

Burger King is a bottom tier fast food place for me. The charbroiled flavor tastes artificial, the fries and chicken are unremarkable and their breakfast is the worst in their class. A lot of Burger Kings I have been in have been very dirty as well.

I would imagine that it warmed up being in the box with the pizza over any other intentional pre-heating. And assuming it is like any other national chain's sauces it is already liquid at room temperature because they don't use normal oils that solidify at room temperature.

Well, well. Finally have a round that goes the distance. It comes down to Mop it up. If she gets it right then she's in the Final Four with control of the bomb word. If she's wrong then Insanolord squeaks into another Final Four. How fitting that she'll be choosing between the two more ladylike options:


Wendy's

Post by: Khushrenada on January 31, 2020, 06:39:55 PM
So, I'll talk a bit about this after but I am going to retroactively divide these games up into seasons after the suggestion made in the sign-up thread for this game. Season 1 will consist of games 1 - 10. Season 2 will consist of Games 11 - 15. This game will mark the end of Season 2. This means Stratos will be the points champion of Season 1. ShyGuy who has currently been leading in points will finish 1st in total points for Season 2 no matter how he finishes now. Thus, he will not be denied the impressive record he has racked up of late.

While it may take away from some of the drama knowing that result, there is still the normal drama of who will actually win the current game in question. Let's take a quick look at our Final Four of Safe Words 15.
Title: Re: Safe Words 15 - Fast Food Frenzy. Round 6.
Post by: Khushrenada on January 31, 2020, 06:49:18 PM
Nickmitch - He started Season2 off strong by winning Safe Words 11. Unfortunately, only odd number games seem to be good for him as he placed 11th in Safe Words 12 and 7th in Safe Words 14. He made it to 3rd in Safe Words 13 and has cracked the Final Four again in this game, Safe Words 15. In Safe Words 11, he was able to outlast ShyGuy who placed 3rd in order to win. But in Safe Words 13, ShyGuy outlasted him to win while nickmitch placed 3rd instead. Overall, this is nickmitch's 5th time making the Final Four. He's placed 3rd twice, 2nd once and 1st once. Nickmitch is searching for his second Safe Words win. Will he get it or end up 3rd (or some other form of heartbreak) again?
Title: Re: Safe Words 15 - Fast Food Frenzy. Round 6.
Post by: Khushrenada on January 31, 2020, 06:54:36 PM
ShyGuy - The most dominant player in Safe Words of late and especially Season 2. He's made the Final Four in all 5 games of Season 2 except for Safe Words 12 where he just missed it by placing 5th. He placed 3rd in Safe Words 11, 5th in Safe Words 12, 1st in Safe Words 13 and 3rd again in Safe Words 14. ShyGuy is also one of three players to have won 2 games of Safe Words. He is still looking to be the first player to win 3 games and his survival into the Final Four this game gives him another crack at that record. With his consistently high placements through Season 2 he has safely ensconced himself at the top of the Season 2 Points Leaderboard. He's playing for style points and would surely like to finish it strong with another win. Can he do it?

EDIT: One other thing that came to my attention after writing up about ShyGuy. This makes his 8th appearance in a Safe Words Final Four. This means that when we play Safe Words, there is over a 50% chance that ShyGuy will make it to the Final Four. That's crazy!! He's made the most Final Four appearances and yet this game marks the first time he has gotten to the Final Four in 3 consecutive games. This ties him with Stratos and Insanolord for most consecutive Final Four appearances. Only UncleBob has done better as his record of 4 consecutive appearances from the first four Safe Words games has yet to be matched or broken still. But by getting to the Final Four this game, ShyGuy has the opportunity to match that next game if he can make it to the Final Four then. Obviously not something we'll be able to see the result of right away but something to keep in mind for next time.
Title: Re: Safe Words 15 - Fast Food Frenzy. Round 6.
Post by: Khushrenada on January 31, 2020, 07:00:07 PM
TOPHATANT123 - A semi-regular for these games, TOPHATANT123 returns after an absence of missing Safe Words 13 and 14. Safe Words 11 did not go his way as he placed 8th in that game but he did redeem himself with a 3rd place finish in Safe Words 12. TOPHATANT123 has won a game of Safe Words before which was Safe Words 9. Like nickmitch, he's hoping to win his second game and join that small club of players who have two games. TOPHATANT123 has not had many Final Four appearances. Overall, the times he's cracked it have been Safe Words 9 which he won, Safe Words 10 where he placed 4th, Safe Words 12 where he placed 3rd and now Safe Words 15 where his placement is yet to be determined. Can he make the most of this Final Four opportunity?

Post by: Khushrenada on February 01, 2020, 02:06:09 AM
I'm trying to make the point that a season can be any number. 2 games, 8 games, 40 games (probably not that long actually  ;) ). We can vote how long we want the season to be (or some other method) and change it up from time to time. (Although yes, we also played the game a lot more regularly at first and now it is pretty much a yearly thing so let's shorten the season.)
Title: Re: Safe Words 15 - Fast Food Frenzy. Round 6.
Post by: Khushrenada on February 01, 2020, 02:35:21 AM
Insanolord - I can pretty much copy what I said about him last game.

- Has never won this game. LOL!

- Has been eliminated in the first round of three Safe Words games (Game 4, 8 and 9) which is the most by any player (although Lucario has now tied this record by being eliminated in the first round this game but Lucario's also won two game so....). He's the only player to be eliminated in the first round in two consecutive Safe Words games.

- He was also the second player eliminated in Game 10 and the third player eliminated in Game 3 and Game 13.

- Sucks.

But let's review things for Season 2 anyways. Finished 5th in Game 11, Finished 7th in Game 12, Finished 6th in Game 13 and nearly won the whole thing in Game 14 but fortunately for everyone he just placed 2nd. Frighteningly enough, that is the second time he almost won this game also placing 2nd in Game 7. However, since this game is not divisible by 7 then hopefully we've got nothing to worry about him making the Final Four again, right? RIGHT?!  :o

This makes his 6th appearance in a Safe Words Final Four. He also made it to this level in Games 2, 5, 6, 7 and 13. This ties him with Stratos for 2nd overall in most Safe Words Final Four appearances. (ShyGuy is the only player ahead of Insanolord and Stratos to have more.) He is also tied in 2nd place with Stratos and now ShyGuy for most consecutive Final Four appearances from when he had a three game consecutive Final Four appearance streak thanks to games 5,6,7. It was Stratos 6th appearance in the Final Four last game that finally led to him winning his first game of Safe Words. Will the 6th appearance be the same lucky charm for Insanolord? Really, though, how long can he keep getting denied? With another opportunity in front of him, will he finally be able to capitalize and do the unthinkable and win this game?! Or will the fact that ShyGuy is in the Final Four with him again just like he was in both games Insanolord placed second continue to be the kryptonite that somehow keeps this game from going his way?

Wendys has been on a downhill trend since Dave passed away. They used to in my top three but no more! That being said they still do some things okay

They changed their fries for the worse a long while back
The consistency of their burger patties has gotten weird. Like it's over ground and soaked in something.
Their value menu items have gotten pricey and tiny!

Top tier all natural lemonade. I think it even beats Chick-Fil-A, but just barely.
Their chili is still great
Their salads are solid and compete with McDonalds
Their nuggets are probably the best outside of dedicated chicken places.
The frosty holds a special place in my heart.

That means the pressure is on for ShyGuy. Either him or TOPHATANT123 will advance depending on ShyGuy's choice between:

I mean, that somehow seems to be the case considering his post. Yet, he still had like 36 hours to check back in and figure it out. Plus, I was pretty clear at the start of this game:

After that, it is up to the players to remember to check in on their own unless they notify me to send them a reminder when it is their turn to choose.

and

A generous time of 2 days (48 hours) is given for a player to select a phrase. If they've requested for me to send them a reminder when it is their turn, a message will be sent to alert them of that fact 24 hours before their time to choose is up. If a choice has not been made by the end of the total 48 period, the player will be automatically given the bomb word choice and removed from the game. The 48 hours begins from the timestamp of the post I make in this thread asking for their selection in the round.


Considering ShyGuy has shown up before in this thread to talk about fast food restaurants in general and knew he was in the final four which had clearly begun, he should know to check in and keep up at this point. Let's say I give him more time and then he chooses the Safe Word. Is that fair to TOPHATANT123 to have extended the time? Unless TOPHATANT123 wants to do it then I have to make the ruling. I've got no way of reaching TOPHATANT123 to get an instant answer. But, moreover, the responsibility and decision shouldn't be put on him in the first place. He's got to be the nice guy and give ShyGuy an opportunity only to get eliminated if Shy chooses right when he would have advanced if he said no? I'm the host and it's my duty to enforce the rules as they are outlined. This way TOPHATANT123 can say later that he'd have allowed more time to still look like the nice guy while I'm the villain.

Therefore, ShyGuy whiffs it and is out. Apparently, he couldn't choose between the two after all.

While making up his mind, ShyGuy had an epiphany. Unfortunately, the epiphany sounded like the Taco Bell gong and the ringing in his head made him lose his bearings and he fell into the deep fryer and died. His death caused the Taco Bell employees to lose all motivation and fail at their work like ShyGuy failed in Safe Words.

This caused the Taco Bell to shut down which started a domino effect leading to the entire Taco Bell company shutting down. This means that in the future, Demolition Man John Spartan had no where to go to eat and starved to death. Thanks to ShyGuy, crime wins.

TOPHATANT123 begins this round. He only has the following options to choose from before they're gone:


Subway
KFC
Dairy Queen

And so we come back to NWR_Insanolord. With a correct choice, he makes it to the Final Round for a second time in a row. A wrong choice and it is nickmitch who advances. What will it be?


KFC
Dairy Queen

nickmitch made the mistake of "doubling down" on more KFC. Unfortunately, KFC just wasn't prepared to handle all the buckets of chicken being ordered this game and this was the result:

The BNM method (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBSvLE3LxOk)


The blast took out nickmitch as he tried to decide between the potato salad, macaroni salad or coleslaw.

According to the colonel, nickmitch was laid to rest in a 12 piece bucket, a big box meal and a family feast. Because the C in KFC actually stands for corpse.

This brings us to the Final Round. NWR_Insanolord vs TOPHATANT123.

TOPHATANT123 is trying to join the two-time winner's club and Insanolord is still trying to get his first win. Somehow, you've let him make back-to-back Final Rounds. Moreover, you maniacs have now given him control of the bomb word for the Finals. What are you doing to me? If the unthinkable happens, it is all ShyGuy's fault and he should be banned from the forums. I know await Insanolord's selection for the Finale.

Subway

Dairy Queen

I'm honoured to have reached this stage, no matter what happens it's been a good game.

Now, onto the selection. I have a history with Subway, I've already picked it twice including in the round immediately preceding this one. To pick it again would be madness, on the other hand, Insanolord also picked Dairy Queen in the round preceding this one. Would they pick the same safe word twice?

The question is if Insanolord decided to change or stay the same... People tend to choose change when given the option, if Insanolord also has the same thinking they would expect me to switch from my answer Subway to Dairy Queen. Also what's a Dairy Queen, is it like an ice cream parlor?

I'm going to make the assumption that Insanolord expects me to switch, so I'm going to stay the same. LET'S GOOOOOO SUBWAY.

The World War 2 veteran hired yesterday thought the Flamethrower Burger meant it was cooked with a flamethrower and brought his in to work since he was familiar with using it. Unfortunately, he ended up causing a huge grease fire and catching Insanolord in its flames as well. Insanolord ran outside, hjacked a vehicle to get himself to the hospital and promptly crashed into a trash can. He died in the garbage fire.

This means that TOPHATANT123 IS THE WINNER OF SAFE WORDS 15!!!

He has now won his second game of Safe Words joining Nuclearspeed, Lucario(fan99) and ShyGuy as a two-time winner. Another brutal heartbreak for Insanolord. You guys are cruel. At least eliminating him in the opening round didn't get his hopes up so much.

How strange that the option which advertises being low fat and sort of healthy was the option that ended up surviving to the end. Well, the results don't lie so the Khushrenada Corporation will partner with Subway to promote Safe Words. To thank TOPHATANT123 for his invaluable service in helping to choose the right promotional partner, the Corporation has decided to make TOPHATANT123 the spokesperson for Safe Words and have him appear in the commercials with Subway's spokesman. We've set the appointment for 1:00 PM July 6, 2015 which, as you can tell, is right now. In fact, here's Subway's representative now.....

AUGUST 15, 2015

The Khushrenada Corporation today announced they are shutting down the Safe Words division of their company. The Safe Words brand came under much scrutiny and was highly tarnished by an ad campaign the past month that heavily featured disgraced spokesman Jared Fogle with his supposed best friend TOPHATANT123. Investors were already critical of the long term viability of the Safe Words brand and it's potential for financial growth citing recent incidents with long delays between matches, player unengagement and highly unpopular player Insanolord coming close to winning the game the last few times. Subway was also flabbergasted that the Safe Words division carried ahead with the promotion when they had fired Jared as their spokesman on July 7, 2015 and have launched a law suit against Safe Words and the Khushrenada Corporation for still branding Jared as their company representative in the ad campaign. With the recent promotional boondoggle causing shares in the company to dip, the CEO of the Khushrenada Corporation has announced that they are ceasing all Safe Words activity effective today and will be reorganizing their resources and focus to the Mafia department and working on growing a brand that has had much better public engagement. On hearing this announcement, TOPHATANT123 released a statement to the press simply stating, "I regret everything." We will continue to report on this story as it develops.

Time to finally get to the real reason why people play Safe Words: For the points!

As mentioned in previous Safe Word games, the players are all ranked by the F-Zero GX racing point system based on their position. Based on how the contestants finished in this game of Safe Words 15, these were the points handed out to them for the game:

TOPHATANT123 - 100
NWR_insanolord - 93
nickmitch - 87
ShyGuy - 81
Mop it up - 76
BeautifulShy - 71
Steefosaurus - 66
Stratos - 62
lolmonade - 58

Post by: Khushrenada on February 06, 2020, 02:42:42 AM
Now, after Safe Words 14, here is a reminder of what the All-Time Safe Words Leaderboard looked like.

1. ShyGuy - 1059 points (14 games played)
2. Stratos - 1024 points (14 games played)
3. NWR_insanolord - 955 points (14 games played)
4. nickmitch - 938 points (13 games played)
5. Mop it up - 906 points (12 games played)
6. Soren - 802 points (12 games played)
7. Lucario - 738 points (10 games played)
8. Silenced - 502 points (7 games played)
8. oohhboy - 502 points (8 games played)
10. UncleBob - 478 points (6 games played)
11. TOPHATANT123 - 442 points (6 games played)
12. Triforce Hermit - 430 points (6 games played)
13. lolmonade - 360 points (6 games played)
14. Nuclearspeed - 342 points (5 games played)
15. Khushrenada - 319 points (5 games played)
16. Steefosaurus - 257 points (3 games played)
17. ObbyDent - 180 points (3 games played)
18. Evan_B - 165 points (3 games played)
19. TofuFury - 139 points (2 games played)
20. Spak-Spang - 116 points (2 games played)
21. Ceric - 100 points (1 game played)
22. (tie) Fatty The Hutt - 93 points (1 game played)
22. (tie) Phil - 93 points (1 game played)
22. (tie) Pokepal148 - 93 points (1 game played)
25. (tie) BlackNMild2k1 - 76 points (1 game played)
25. (tie) Zap - 76 points (1 game played)
27. BeautifulShy - 71 points (1 game played)
28. ejamer - 47 points (1 game played)
29. Hypotheliciously - 41 points (1 game played)

However, as mentioned, I've decided to divide that board up into two seasons with season 1 consisting of games 1 to 10 and Season 2 consisting of games 11 - 15. Apparently, Safe Words didn't get high enough ratings to justify another full season but not such low ratings as to cancel it completely. Anyways, after the split, the two seasons look like this.

Season 1

1. Stratos - 729
2. Shyguy - 709
3. Soren - 673
4. Insanolord - 649
5. Nickmitch - 635
6. Mop it up - 620
7. Lucariofan99 - 539
8. Unclebob - 478
9. Silenced - 436
10. Triforce Hermit - 430
11. oohhboy - 372
12. lolmonade - 360
13. Nuclearspeed - 342
14. TOPHATANT123 - 293
15. Khushrenada - 226
16. ObbyDent - 180
17. Evan_B - 118
18. Spak-Spang - 116
19. Ceric - 100
20. Phil - 93
21. Pokepal148 - 93
22. BlackNMild2k1 - 76
23. Zap - 76
24. TofuFury - 58
25. ejamer - 47
26. Hypothelicously - 41

Season 2

1. ShyGuy - 350
2. Insanolord - 306
3. Nickmitch - 303
4. Stratos - 295
5. Mop it up - 286
6. Steefosaurus - 257
7. Lucario - 199
8. TOPHATANT123 - 149
9. oohhboy - 130
10. Soren - 129
11. Fatty The Hutt - 93
12. Khushrenada - 93
13. TofuFury - 81
14. BeautifulShy - 71
15. Silenced - 66
16. Evan_B - 047

However, even this I'm going to update and change a bit because it is time to give hosts of this game some points. It won't be the full 100 points I always joke about but it will be a significant amount. Hopefully, it means more people would be willing to host a game since they won't have to suffer in the overall points category if they really care about that. I'll also update this with the amount of games played and hosted by a player in a season. Then I'll make a post adding the points from this game to what the Season 2 current total gets updated at and then we'll have officially ended Season 2. After that players can vote on how many games they think a Season 3 should consist of.

That's correct. I have not added in this game's points yet.

EDIT:

In order to not bump this thread and mess with the current game, I'm just going to put these totals here. After much debating as to what is fair, I've decided to go with 70 points for hosting. I was leaning towards 76 as though hosting would be the same as making the Final Four but decided to cut it back slightly to more 5th place finishing. It's still a high point total but I wanted to still have making the Final Four worth it just a bit more. So, if you want a quick 70 point boost to your totals then just host a game!

Giving the hosts points, though, actually changed things for Season 1 and put someone else on top. No, it wasn't me.  >:(

Mop it up moves from 6th to first because of getting points for the two games she hosted. Sorry, Stratos. When looking at the point averages, Stratos was at 72.something over 10 games but Mop it up was at 77.something over 8 games. So, she was doing better than Stratos in averaging points per game. Thus, her getting further rewarded with getting points for hosting a game seemed fair rather than her being denied. It made me wonder if I was giving too many points for hosting but trying other point totals to lower things and create some perfect formula proved elusive. Even if I went with 60 points for a host, making it like finishing better than 9 but worse than 8 still would have Mop it up finish ahead of Stratos. With some games only having 8 players, it felt weird to give the host less points than anyone playing and immediately losing while they had to still do all the work of running the game. It goes back to Mop it up having a better average so let's put the points at 70. As well, Mop it up is only 1 of 2 people to host 2 games of Safe Words. Who might the other person be...?  ;)

14. TofuFury - 81 points (1 game played)
15. Silenced - 66 points (1 game played)
16. lolmonade - 58 points (1 game played)
17. Evan_B - 47 points (1 game played)

This tally comes from adding the points earned in Safe Words 15 to the points accumulated from players in Games 11 - 14 as well as adding in points for hosting.

Another reason why I'm happy enough with the 70 point total for hosting is for how Season 2 ended. This was a big test case in determining how weighted hosting should be since I hosted 4 out of the 5 games played. The one game I did play I ended up in 2nd. So, if I gave the host the same points as the 4th place finisher then I'd have "made the Final Four" or better as it were through the whole season. But I also knew that ShyGuy had a heck of a run during these 5 games as well and was very dominant. Would giving the host points take the Season 2 crown from ShyGuy? The answer is no. Even I had stuck with 76 points for hosting then my final position would have been 3rd place. Lowering the points for hosting to 70 just knocked me down to 4th. Because ShyGuy still placed better and had a sick 431 points acquired out of a possible 500, his average per game was still greater than my average for hosting. Trying to determine how many points a host should get based on this season, 70 points could seem low and maybe a host should get more if they'd still end up behind other players despite Final Four points. But based on a point differential between me and ShyGuy of 60 points at the time Season 2 ended, he'd have to tank two games for me to likely surpass him if I hosted those games depending on the amount of players and what the low finishing points might be. He could possibly regain the lead on the next game after if he placed high enough keeping things competitive. Thus, length of a season is another factor leading to how Mop it up's hosting points enabled her to keep up her average and surpass Stratos while ShyGuy could overcome mine by getting high finishes in a short sample size.

With that, I officially make 70 points the hosting bonus and conclude Game 15 and finally wrap up Season 1 and 2 of Safe Words. Onwards to Season 3.

Wait I know it is late and probably not making sense in my head but the 71 points was from a previous game and not the 71 I scored in SW 15 so they would be added together right?

That's correct. I have not added in this game's points yet.
I figured as much since I remember playing in one other game before 15.

Also Congrats TOPHATANT123 you seem to be winning a lot on these forums lately.
