sees_all1 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Changing the rules for this because I feel like it, and to make it easier to play. Post a rule for the person below you. E.g. Next post must be underlined.Next post must have no vowelsNP mst b m04r th4n 40 ch4r4ct3rsNext post must include a smiley. [hide=old rules]This game is a mixture of Whose Line Is It Anyway (the points don't matter), and Calvinball (least organized sport ever). Every time you post, make up a new rule on how to calculate the points for your post and every post afterward. Calculate your point value, and put it at the bottom of your post. Rules can be made up about anything, and the order that you apply the rules goes from oldest rule to most recent. The actual winner of this game is determined by the user that calculates the point values of their most posts correctly. The 5 posts before you are fair game for correcting - if you correct someone before you, you get their post. Game rules:Rules must contain a conditional that would reasonably affect at least 2 and no more than 8 of the next 10 posts afterwards. (This is to make sure that everyone's score will be somewhat challenging to calculate, and not a "start at zero, add twenty, divide by six and take the remainder..." where their score is the same as the person before them.)No double posting.No multiplying or dividing by zero, or raising anything to the zero power.No irrational numbers, no imaginary numbers.Honor system - no editing your posts.Winner will be calculated at arbitrary times by anyone able to edit this post - will also reset the rules. EDIT: Allowing a 10 minute grace period to modify your points (but not your rule), in case someone is quicker at posting than you :wink: [hide=sample chain of posts]1 - points come from post number of this thread - 1 pt2 - even posts are worth double - 2 * 2 = 4 pt3 - prime posts are worth 5 more - 3 + 5 = 8 pt4 - multiples of 4 are worth 2 less - 4 * 2 - 2 = 6 pt5 - all post points are multiplied by the number of vowels in posters name - (5 + 5) * 3 = 30 pt[/hide] ____________________________________ Winners: ____________________________________ First rule: All posts are worth 4.Calculated points for this post: 4[/hide] 99 dungeoneering achieved, thanks to everyone that celebrated with me! ♪♪ Don't interrupt me as I struggle to complete this thoughtHave some respect for someone more forgetful than yourself ♪♪♪♪ And I'm not doneAnd I won't be till my head falls off ♪♪ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Squab Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Riiiiiiiiiiiight, um, I'm assuming that the only rules I should be working with atm are in the last post, in which case my score is 100. How about you only calculate your score from the posters last post here, or sees_all1's last post here, whichever you prefer, unless you have no posts here in which case just sees_all1's last post here? Suggestion for actual game rules in original post rule idea. Um... multiply your score by the number of vowels in your forum name +1? My score (0) + 100 * (3 + 1) = 400? Squab unleashes Megiddo!

sees_all1 Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 Wait, we're only doing what the previous post said now? That's stupid and not challenging at all When do I stop only doing what Napalm says? Last time I checked, listening to Napalm isn't an arithmetic functionYou guys troll hard. :mrgreen: For clarification, everyone's rules apply. Rules apply from oldest to newest, and must contain a conditional (so that everyone's score is not the same). Napalm's rule only applies at his level... which is to say it doesn't affect any one else's rules :thumbsup: . Starting from 0,Double your score (0)Only follow Napalms rule at this point (0)Add 100 if your name does not contain an underscore (0)Multiply your score by the number of vowels in your forum name +1 (0 * 4 = 0) And my new rule, subtract 3 from your score if the rule before you contained the word "forum" (0 - 3 = -3)My score: -3. 99 dungeoneering achieved, thanks to everyone that celebrated with me! ♪♪ Don't interrupt me as I struggle to complete this thoughtHave some respect for someone more forgetful than yourself ♪♪♪♪ And I'm not doneAnd I won't be till my head falls off ♪♪ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saradomin_Mage Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 I appear to be completely, completely lost, which is what I anticipated anyway, hahaha.Next rule:If your post contains a rhyme or more,Multiply your score by forty-four.

Sir_Squab Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Here goes. Starting from 0. Double my score, still 0. Napalms rule leaves me at 0. My name does NOT contain an underscore, although it will contain a rhyme or more. +100. Multiply it by the vowels in my name. 3X. 300. Since my post has a rhyme, multiply by 44. 13200. Do I get a prize now? New rule: divide your post count by the number of posts in this thread (up to the point where you hit the "reply" button.) Take the remainder of that and add it to your score. Or, to put it simply, mod your post count by the number of posts in this thread and add it to your score.If that's too difficult, just put "Squab is too hard for me" somewhere in your post and add 10 points to your score.
