Title: *NEW* One-time game! "Minority" sign-ups.
Post by: that Baby guy on June 25, 2009, 02:22:43 AM
I read about an interesting, relatively short game.  It plays very simply:

I ask a question that only has two answers, for example, "If you had to choose between dogs or cats, which would you own?"

You send me a PM with the answer to that question.

Whoever answered the question with the answer the least people choose goes on to the next question.  Whoever answers the question in the majority loses the game.

Any round where the number of players who choose each answer is equal will be a draw, and no players will lose.  Any round where the number of players that end up moving on will be equal to two will result in a random third player from the previous round moving on, chosen by a random number generator.

Sign up, and the game will begin the day after the day after the current mafia ends.  The game will have 12 hour shifts, and if you don't manage to answer within it, you will lose.  It should move pretty quickly the first few rounds.  This is meant to be a bridge from one mafia into something that could be light and fun, so we'll see how it goes.

Any questions?

Hahaha, no, no that's an example question.  This is sign-ups.  I'll change the sample to something less mafia.

Quick, add some racial slurs so EasyCure will play!

What if there is a tie? Everyone moves on?

What if only one person signs up? Is he the automatic winner? Or loser?

Why don't you just have it that everyone that replies to the first question is in, and move from there.

Pretty much that's what I plan to do.  Even if you don't sign up, if you answer the first question, you're in.

However, this is to create awareness, show when the game begins, at least, and people like to sign-up for things, anyways.

And... uhh.  Hey, if you, Stogi, and nickmitch decide to play, you might have an advantage, you know...
