| Posted: | | | | Hi Guys,
I see beta fun game is up to 22 pages & seems endless, I propose the following:
01. Actors dead or alive a) no stage or character names b) no animated character names Shrek etc 02. Repeat of name/actor last poster is out of game 03. Ten players per game, player number 1 - 10 a) Player #1 selects an actor, only Player2 responds,.....Player#10 name, Player#1 responds, 04. No google, no consulting lists, Honor system, we just use our own brains 05. The game is over at 10 pages or, 7 days PST pacific std. time, starting from post #1. 06. Challenge should a player challenge an actor or post, if challenger is wrong he/she is out or viice versa. 07. Should a player not respond in 24 hrs. from last posters, posted time stamp he/she is out. ex. Player1 Posts Bill Murray 7/1/07 10 am, Player2 has until 7/2/07 10 am to post a response etc. Should Player#2 response come in at 7/2/07 10:01 PST he/she is out. 08. Spelling as long as its 'clearly' understood who is meant Michael Cane, should be allowed, as were using our brains not lists etc. 09. Challenges can be defended using IMDB, Wikipedia 10. The first person eliminated, shall prepare, electronic message, trophy, acknowledgment for the winner congratulatory in nature. The prize should be $0.00 value. 11. No PM'ing hints to players. 12. Should 10 players not have signed up for a game, within 3 day's of proposed game. The game shall commence 3 days from posted start, with as many people, available at that time. Or it's too late after 72 hrs. for the 10th player to sign up. 13. To sign up post that you wish to play. First 10 within 72 hrs. The sign up page, does not count in the 10 page limit. When 10 players are on board Player1 starts a new thread with actors name this would be page one & game over at the bottom of page ten, if it spills over to page eleven it does not count. 14. Any rule can be modified times changed with a majority vote from the current active players. Prior to a dispute or challenge.
If I've left something out or anything needs changing or clarification, no problem, discuss changes. Perhaps a practice game is in order. The game should have a conclusion, with a winner or co-winners, allowing 24 hrs. btwn posts, allows time for work and other commitments. Note every effort should be made by each player to respond as quickly as possible.
Game Ends (wiiner or co-winners declared) Player#1 first post (actors name) Time Stamp, 168 hrs. PST later, or the bottom of the 10th page, which ever comes first. Bottom of 10th page defined as, the next, actors name would start page 11.
Player #1 Rico

| Posted: | | | | Hi Caroline,
From how good you were in the other you will probably be the winner. Caroline's player 2.

| Posted: | | | | Count me in as well, however how about a slight rule change to make the game a little more difficult .... The next name must be made by using the first 2 characters of the surname ... For instance ... First name is Michael Crawford ... so the next name must use the initials C.R - so maybe Christopher Reeve.... Will make the game a lot more difficult and easy to lose Cheers Tom |

| Posted: | | | | maybe it's better we start the game with an easy level and increase the difficulty later. We could e.g. think about using only the letters from the previous posting for the next actor or actors from special tv series etc. | | | Thorsten |

| Posted: | | | | Good Morning Gang,
We currently have 6 players:
1 Rico 2 Caroline 3 Erin 4 Kahless 5 TommyG 6 Ppkchamp
The game will begin when 4 more players are on board, or June 3, 2007 2111 hrs PST, where Rico will have 24 hrs to post an actors name, and Caroline will have 24 hrs (from Rico's posted actors name time stamp) to reply. etc
Caroline responds to Rico, Erin responds to Caroline, Kahless responds to Erin, TommyG responds to Kahless, Ppkchamp responds to TommyG, Rico responds to Ppkchamp, and so forth till elminated or the end of the game, which is 168 hrs from Rico's actors posted time stamp, or the bottom of the 10th page.
Non players post do not count, & a non player's actors name cannot be used by a player. Likewise an eliminated players post the surviving players cannot use that name.
Note: It may be helpful (speed the game up) to subscribe to the thread.
Note: Making the game harder, increases the temptation to use, alternative (illegal) sources, lists google etc.
Okay! Now I have to search for a congratulatory scroll, to prepare for the winner(s).

| Posted: | | | | Excellent. I would suggest a PM to each player to indicate the thread name when the game is started unless this thread is used! | | | <---------Mithrandir, Laverne and Shirley Caroline |

| Posted: | | | | Hi Caroline,
If this thread is used, it may start in the middle of the page (not the top, on page 2 or such) so controversy is possible regarding, end of game, end of page 10.

PS - Hi Darxon your number 7, good luck! | | | If I felt any better I'd be sick! Envy is mental theft. If you covet another mans possessions, then you should be willing to take on his responsibilities, heartaches, and troubles, along with his money. D. Koontz | | | Last edited: by Rico |
