The Liar Game - Corn - 2009-04-06
Even if the PM is fixed, you still have to follow the rules.
-Slightly tweaked the rules on 4:29 EST April 8th...
No, this is not the manga....just a forum game I (re)made.
Basically, the situation is that your host, ClawofBeta, had made a lot of money on Shawn Johnson nudes, and can't decide what to do with them. He has invited 7 (could be more or less) of you guys to his mansion, and locks each of you in a room. You cannot get out of the room. However, there is a phone where you can privately chat with each other (private messages), and a computer which has been programmed so only this thread pops up. There is also a huge,
shaped button.The idea is to get the most "points." You get can get points either way.
-If all eight people don't hit the button, they each collect 9 points.
-If two to three people push the button, then they collect 2 points each.
-If four to six people push the button, then everyone else collect 3 points each.
-If only one person pushes the button, then he gains 5 points.
-If everyone pushes the button, they all lose 5 points each.
-If you don't PM me at all (look at red text below) you lose 4 points.
These rules can change after every round.
[SIZE="4"]You private message me to tell me if you pushed the button or not.[/SIZE]
The person with the most points gets a bunch of
s and bragging rights.Each round would take 1 day, starting at today, 6:01 EST.
Alliances are perfectly acceptable, which is the key to this game. Oh, and also lieing, reverse psychology, and reverse reverse psychology, and reverse reverse reverse psychology, and reverse reverse reverse reverse psychology...
Host - ClawofBeta (Pre Round 1)
1. Myles - 0 points.
2. FelixTM - 0 points.
3. Stereo - 0 Points.
4. Providence - 0 Points.
5. Throws - 0 Points.
6. Nalek 24 - 0 Points.
7. »-Chris-> - (-)2 Points.
8. y0y0y0y0shi0 - (-)8 Points.
The results of each round would be posted.
Round 1
1. Myles - 0 points.
2. FelixTM - 0 points.
3. Stereo - 0 Points.
4. Providence - 5 Points.
5. Throws - 0 Points.
6. Nalek 24 - 0 Points.
7. »-Chris-> - (-)6 Points.
Ooh, what a turn of events! FelixTM and Throws attempted to use reverse psychology, but failed. Stereo and Myles tried to hide their attack but this round, but it didn't work. Nalek24 just plain lied (or was it reverse reverse psychology?) but fell flat on his face. Chris was masturbating in his room and forgot about the entire game altogether.
However Providence...used reverse reverse psychology! Everyone else was too trusting in everyone else! But that greedy douchebag wanted to grab points for himself, and what a risk he took! He was the only one who pushed the button, earning 5 whole points!
Providence now has a huge lead, with Chris with a huge behind!
Signups are still allowed, but you have start out with -8 points. Ouch.
Rules are slightly changed.
-If all seven people don't hit the button, they each collect 9 points.
-If two to four people push the button, then they collect 2 points each.
-If four to six people push the button, then everyone else collect 3 points each.
-If only one person pushes the button, then he gains 5 points.
-If everyone pushes the button, they all lose 5 points each.
-If you don't PM me at all (look at red text below) you lose 4 points.
I don't notice any alliances, folks! That's the key to win!
Next round ends tomorrow, Wednesday, April 8th, on 6:00 PM.
Round 2
1. Myles - 0 points.
2. FelixTM - (-)4 points.
3. Stereo - 0 Points.
4. Providence - 7 Points.
5. Throws - 0 Points.
6. Nalek 24 - 0 Points.
7. »-Chris-> - (-)10 Points.
8. y0y0y0y0shi0 - (-)6 Points.
Ah, we have a daring newcomer attempting to win the prize, and he started with -8 points! However, he actually made it! Congratulations to y0y0y0y0y0y0y0y0y0y0y0...erm...y0y0 for actually winning 2 points! Also, Providence is in a huge lead! It's going to be near impossible to stop him!
And we have an event! The PM server is down! That means people who are taking forever to decide just lost their points! Ouch! This means you guys, FelixTM and Chris!
Also, sorry for the delay.
Round 3
This round is crazy! It ends tomorrow, Thursday, April 9th, 2009 at 6:00 PM!
And you need to find out a way to get the button pushing method to me with the PM servers down! It can be most ways - but it must have this format.
[noparse]I, (insert forum name), is/is not pushing the button.[/noparse]
I altered the grammar on purpose. Failure to follow format will result in the loss of 1 point.
Attempting a visitor message*? You're running the risk of other people looking on! IRC? You must know how to bold and invite me to private chat!
New Rules-
-If you push the button, you win 1 measly point.
-If at least 5 people don't hit the button, then they all gain 3 points each, and the people who push the button loses five points!
-If you don't do anything, you lose 4 points.
You cannot join now, too!
*You can edit as many times as you want until 6:00 PM. Editing after that will end in an automatic -5 points!
Also...if you PM, you lose 1 point. But is it worth the risk?
Super Round
Better start preparing, heh. This round lasts one whole week! Even odder, Round 3 results will not be posted during this Super Round!
This round officially lasts from April 9th, 2009 at 6:00 PM EST to April 16th, 2009 at 6:00 PM EST.
In fact, judging how active you guys are in Round 3, this may be the last round! Lol!
Now...there's only one way to decide to push the button or not in this round...visitor messages, only. No IRC, private messages, etc. You will lose 3 points if you disobey this.
You must post in the visitor message
[noparse]I, (insert forum name), am/am not pushing the button in the Super Round.[/noparse]
Failure to follow format in this format will result the loss of 2 points, and editing/posting after the time restraints will result in a loss of 3 points.
Rules- almost the same as last round.
-If you push the button, you win 1 measly point.
-If at least 5 people don't hit the button, then they all gain 3 points each, and the people who push the button loses ten points!
-If you don't do anything, you lose 4 points.
Now, the results will be in a week! Hope this thread doesn't die, heh!

The Liar Game - Providence - 2009-04-06
I pushed the button.
The Liar Game - Stereo - 2009-04-06
I assume since there are only 6 people, if nobody pushes the button we all get 9 points?
