Another rumble game!
Heres the rules to Rumble if you don't know how to play:

| QUOTE |
here's some details that are important but not inherently clear in the rules.
-Burn vs Spend: Spending means assigning some of your energy points for activating a power/attack/defense. The energy spent is replenished at the beginning of next round.
Burning refers to permanentely deducting a certain amount from your energy pool.
If you play MTG, spending is akin to tapping your land, burning is sacrificing your land.
-Bidding: all powers will be listed in the auction AT ONCE. You must then bid on the powers that you want. Not bidding is like bidding 0. You can only bid a cumulative total amount less than 100 (which is your total energy). In other words, you can't bid 99 on every power, win one of them and have your bids retracted all other auctions.
-Discard: At any time, you can choose discard one of your powers, unless stated otherwise. This may be useful if you want to stop the effects on a certain power that you own.
-Curses: These are powers with negative effects and cannot be discarded. They are won by the LOWEST bidder not the highest. You normally want to avoid them as much as possible by bidding high on them. Remember that not bidding is equal to bidding 0. |
I will open the game to 10-12 players. If I get 12 players I will open up 3 teams of 4. Otherwise, there will only be 2 teams playing.
Once I get enough players, I will select captains (Very Active People), who will select players 1 at a time from the pool of players. Then, those teams can talk privately on the strategies they will try to use with the powers able to be bidded on. This period will last about 2-3 days along with the auctioning. After the auctioning period, the ties will be resolved, and the 1st round will begin!
Just remember. Have fun.

If we do get 12 players and need a 3rd team, anyone got any suggestions?
ShortAssassin - August 24, 2007 04:31 AM (GMT)
rookee - August 24, 2007 04:32 AM (GMT)
3rd team name. If we need one.
2 teams are already going to be SuperHeroes and SuperVillains

I think for the first game, we should just stick to two teams.
Please put me on the opposite team to Zombo. :)
rookee - August 24, 2007 02:16 PM (GMT)
I'll take 2 more, then I'll start with the drafting.

Drafting? There are gonna be captains or something?
Can we make a rule that if Zombo joins, me and him can't be on the same team?
rookee - August 24, 2007 02:24 PM (GMT)
Just tell him you don't wanna be on his team. He will most likely be a captain due to his being on 18 hours of the day. I don't think he'll draft you if you don't want to be on his team.
Lord Michael Davis - August 24, 2007 02:37 PM (GMT)
Make me the other captain, I'm on 18 hours a day atm too. :lol:
Kill two birds.

Zombo - August 24, 2007 03:16 PM (GMT)
hey rookee I just a realized a problem with team bidding.
Suppose there's a power you really want... you ask two players on your team to bid 99 on it. It will go into a tiebreaker with those 2 players only, then one player bids 1 the other 0 and you got a power for 1 energy...
rookee - August 24, 2007 03:18 PM (GMT)
How about the whole team gets X times 100 to spend on bidding. Then after bidding, all the energy is split up EVENLY. X is the number of players on the team.
EDIT: So are you in?
EDIT: Oh yea, then the powers are distributed by the captain.
Zombo - August 24, 2007 03:22 PM (GMT)
no thats stupid too, cuz healers who overpaid on energy would have more energy than what they normally would have spent.
the only rule you need is: only 1 member at most of each team can bid on each power. simple.
/in
ShortAssassin - August 24, 2007 03:25 PM (GMT)
How about, if two people on the same team tie for a power, they flip a coin? That way if you try the 99 thing, one of you gets fucked with 1 energy lol.
rookee - August 24, 2007 03:25 PM (GMT)
mmk that works. Only 1 player from a team can vote on a power.
Zombo - August 24, 2007 03:25 PM (GMT)
just need to limit bidding for each power to at most one member of each team. that's easy.
rookee - August 24, 2007 03:26 PM (GMT)
No, the players from a team SHOULD know who is betting on what.
ShortAssassin - August 24, 2007 03:27 PM (GMT)
Ok, Zombo's rule is fine.
rookee - August 24, 2007 03:30 PM (GMT)
1 More person and I can start the draft.

if that means protecting my team for one more round to win in the end, it's fine for me.

Protecting your team? You'll be dead.
Zombo - August 24, 2007 03:55 PM (GMT)
yea taking heat for 1 round protects my team from attack for that round.

I'm spending 1 on defence, I expect nothing less B)
ShortAssassin - August 24, 2007 04:26 PM (GMT)
Come on, one more person. I wanna see the powers by tonight. Bidding is the best part of the game.
Zombo - August 24, 2007 04:27 PM (GMT)
eburt gonna be in probably.
rookee - August 24, 2007 04:27 PM (GMT)
ShortAssassin - August 24, 2007 04:28 PM (GMT)
Rookee did you choose only from our player made powers? Or did you use some from the site as well?
rookee - August 24, 2007 04:32 PM (GMT)
I haven't made the list yet, but I will try to do half from each, which is kind of hard cause some of those powers in the player made thread are over powered.
rookee - August 24, 2007 04:42 PM (GMT)
Zombo and Mats will be captains, due to their inability to work together.
ShortAssassin - August 24, 2007 04:42 PM (GMT)
Yeah, I also don't think we've got enough with just the ones from the player's thread. 10 people. 1-2 powers each. Gonna need a lot.
