Title: Driving Game

| QUOTE |
The game is played with 10 drivers. There are 9 legs to the race, where one racer is eliminated after each leg. Thus, the last man standing wins.
Each driver starts with 1000 speed points.
During each leg, the drivers PM to the moderator the number of points they wish to spend for this leg. These points will be deducted from their pool (initially 1000).
Once everybody submit, the choices are NOT revealed to the public.
Instead, the moderator will reveal 1st, 2nd, 3rd and who went out and the other particpants in order.
There are incentives for finishing first, second and third. First place receives 20 speed points, second 10 and third 5.
The person who finished last will naturally be eliminated from the game.
In case of tie, the person who submitted FIRST will be the one who arrives faster. |
You will start with (x*100) speed points, where x is the number of 'drivers' and play (x-1) rounds.
If 6-10 people want to play, I'll run a game. To play, you will have to PM me how many points you want to spend. There will be a new round each day, so you gots to be on UCPSB once/day to play this game.
You have 1000 points to spend.
Once only 4 people remain, no bonuses will be given out.
24 hours to send your spending!
GO!

Too late FB man. I will perhaps, if this game proves successful, run another game.
ShortAssassin - August 23, 2007 10:03 PM (GMT)
Seems like its easy enough to play to be successful. Not hard to host either. We should have one running constantly.

I think we should have one running so long as there is interest.
ShortAssassin - August 23, 2007 10:21 PM (GMT)
Yeah, as long as people join. It would be sweet to have like an epic 30 person race.

Holy shit, what'd all you do? 120?
Eriror - August 24, 2007 02:43 PM (GMT)
...Damnit. Spent way too much. I thought you guys would be thinking differently.
Rookee, 9 rounds, 1000/9 = 111 per round. You probably did 100.
CPC - August 24, 2007 02:49 PM (GMT)
Can you post the order everybody came in?

I did 100 too, and I'm not out... Maybe I submitted first. <_<
Lord Michael Davis - August 24, 2007 02:56 PM (GMT)
I modified the rules. You only get to see who is 1st, 2nd, 3rd and out.
rookee - August 24, 2007 02:58 PM (GMT)
Lol, I did 50. I thought someone was gonna think everyone was going low. Anyways, till next time.

It's more of a guessing game now :)
Zombo - August 24, 2007 03:20 PM (GMT)
that's stupid... if you dont show the rankings its too much about luck. giving rankings but not the points give you a good guessing game... thats not how the game is played
Eriror - August 24, 2007 03:33 PM (GMT)
I agree with Zombo..
Sent my spendings for round 2.
Lord Michael Davis - August 24, 2007 03:42 PM (GMT)
R gay. I'll give rankings for other rounds then.
Zombo - August 24, 2007 03:43 PM (GMT)
nonono i want the rankings for this one, or I can't evaluate how many points to send
more specifically, i want to know how many ppl paid more than me.

Perhaps you do want rankings for this one.
But you're SOL.
Zombo - August 24, 2007 03:48 PM (GMT)
why? it's not hard to compute if you know what everybody spent.
as for tiebreaks just pick the one who sent earliest. if you forgot who that is, then randomize those ties.

I actually have them in order on my little notepad file that keeps track of this game :)
You're just SOL. Stop whining.
Zombo - August 24, 2007 03:54 PM (GMT)
you never even gave the reason, wtf?
how can people play if you dont give rankings?

Everyone else (except eriror) seems fine with no rankings for this round. You are the only one complaining. Stop whining <_<
Eriror - August 24, 2007 03:56 PM (GMT)
Geez Mats, come on. Play the game it's supposed to be played!
