Ready, Aim, Fire! (Experiment)

**Kugyince** · 06-12-2007, 10:10 PM

There will be a 500 point entry fee for this contest. The object of this game is to be the last man standing. Last man standing will receive 500x points. In the event of a draw, each player to make it to the last round will receive their entry fee back.

In an x-player games each player has x+1 choices. They may PM me to fire once each day at any player, including themselves, or the air. All PMs/shots are do each day before midnight EST. Any player that doesn't submit a target on time will automatically be considered to shoot air. Any player shot by any other player is out with two exceptions; if you shoot yourself and someone else shoots you, they die -and- if you shoot yourself and no one else shoots you, you die. An example will help you.

Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Adam, and Eve are playing. A player's shot will be represented as player->shot.

Round 1
Matthew->Matthew, Mark->Luke, Luke->Luke, John->air, Adam->Mark, Eve->Luke

The only person to shoot Matthew was himself, so he dies. Luke also shot himself, but Mark and Eve shot Luke too, so they die and Luke lives. Everyone else lives because no one fired at them.

Round 2

Luke->Adam, John->Adam, Adam->air

Now Adam is out of the game, and Luke and John battle it out.

Round 3
Notice that if Luke shoots himself, John wins by shooting air. If Luke shoots John, John wins by shooting self. And if Luke shoots air, then John wins by shooting Luke. These remain true if you switch John and Luke.

Luke->air John->air

Oddly enough, they both live.

Round 4

Luke->John John->Luke

Both players die, and the game's a draw.

**Dudebro** · 06-13-2007, 05:18 AM

I'll play if someone wants to spot me some points.
When does this start?

**Kong** · 06-13-2007, 06:02 AM

I'm in.

You've got the points now, Dudebro.

**Dudebro** · 06-13-2007, 08:04 AM

Thanks Kong, I'll check this thread as soon as I get home from work @ 11pm EST. If we're started by then I'll PM my shot.
Is there a badge for this contest?

**sabby** · 06-13-2007, 09:38 AM

Are we using silver bullets?

Anyhow, I'm in.

**darkshines** · 06-13-2007, 09:49 AM

Count me in.

**wanman** · 06-13-2007, 10:19 AM

When does this start?
Start it next Monday and am in.
(Having Exams right now, 8/13!)

:@: Sabby , At the weekends, you'll be shooting air most of the times!

**chubbs5678** · 06-13-2007, 02:49 PM

Count me in too.

**Kugyince** · 06-13-2007, 08:18 PM

This contest is for points and a contest win. I just thought a non-game related contest was in order. You need points to buy your way into badge contests anyways.

This contest will start when entries start to slow down, most likely Friday or Saturday.

:@: Wan: I'll be posting the results during the wee hours of the morning, most likely before you even wake up. So if you have five minutes before school or after you'll be all set as well.

**joeguy300** · 06-13-2007, 10:13 PM

i'd play if i had points.
(how do u earn points?)

**Kugyince** · 06-13-2007, 10:22 PM

Posting gets you minor points. The fastest way to earn points is to compete in the Game of the Week contest. A sixth place score alone will net you 500 points.

**chubbs5678** · 06-14-2007, 12:23 PM

You can play now, joeguy. You can also get points when people donate them to you. This pretty much only happens before a contest. So if you ever want to enter a contest but don't have enough points, just post like you did saying you don't have enough points and someone will most likely give you some (unless if its a lot of points). So heres your points.

**joeguy300** · 06-14-2007, 12:42 PM

thanks chubbs but i think it's full now....
