Spak-Spang contacted me and said he didn't think he'd be able to do the hosting job he wanted to do with his game after all. I didn't realize he'd already mentioned that in his original post of his sign-up thread. While Mop it up had volunteered to host a round, I'm fine doing it for another round.... and so I shall!

So, let's get this game rolling. I'd like to get this started on March 30, 2015 so you've got 5 days to sign-up. (Which is how long it takes some of you to choose a word. Hi-yooooo!)

For this game, there won't be any changes. The last person to choose in a round will be the one to choose the bomb word like last game. After Phil's little run, I think a lot of players want their chance to try and emulate that and I do like the mind games it can create.

I am curious about changing up the words that are chosen each round. However, I'm not sure how that may affect things. Part of what may make the game so interesting is how the word selection stays the same creating dilemmas as to whether a player should keep choosing the same word or not and when a word no one cares about now suddenly becomes an important choice when it is one of the last few remaining. Whereas with new words every round, you have a blank slate with no history on them from previous rounds. Thus, I've put a poll on it to see the players thoughts as to whether we should try it or not.

Aside from that, it will be the same method and pattern as before. There is no time limit to choose and we do it in order of the player selection that is listed at the start of the game. I would like to do another theme game if for the benefit of maybe being able to add a bit more specific humour to the proceediings. So, if there is a theme you would like to see, feel free to mention it when you sign up.

Your childhood sweetheart,

I'll sign up like I said before.

I prefer the words to be random completely like the first game. I find variety in it.

Silenced · « **Reply #2 on:** March 25, 2015, 05:58:17 PM »

I'll try this out.

Afterwards I'll hold my banning power over everyone to start a fascist forum rule.

Welcome, welcome.

I like the idea of the old words being slowly eliminated. It feels to work with the theme of the game.

Consider me signed up.

I came so close to completely wrecking the last game, I just know I can do it this go around. Let's do this!

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #8 on:** March 25, 2015, 09:46:42 PM »

I am OUT this game. Sorry.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #9 on:** March 26, 2015, 12:06:55 AM »

I keep playing until Khush figures out how to make a good game!

I wish I were as optimistic about how long I'm going to live as you.

Stratos · « **Reply #11 on:** March 26, 2015, 12:28:12 AM »

In for the win!

NuclearSpeed · « **Reply #12 on:** March 26, 2015, 11:53:26 AM »

I'm in and with a new strategy ready to go. We'll see how well this one works.

Mop it up · « **Reply #13 on:** March 26, 2015, 08:06:05 PM »

I think the game worked fine as it was last time.

Stratos · « **Reply #14 on:** March 26, 2015, 08:35:10 PM »

Where's my vowel?!

oohhboy · « **Reply #15 on:** March 26, 2015, 08:58:34 PM »

Who do I ~~kill~~ Ban first?

Khushrenada · « **Reply #16 on:** March 26, 2015, 09:01:32 PM »

Only being able to choose one person may be the hardest part!

Khushrenada · « **Reply #17 on:** March 30, 2015, 11:21:28 AM »

Bump for any last minute sign-ups.

UncleBob · « **Reply #18 on:** March 30, 2015, 11:34:34 AM »

Yeah, I figured you would want in after signing up in Spak's thread. Was waiting to make sure though.
