Minority Rule 2.0 [Game Over!]
« on: November 16, 2013, 04:00:27 am »

Minority Rule 2.0

Helloes all! This is a game I've hosted before on other forums, tweaked for a new and hopefully improved experience. Minority Rule is a game of logic and chance. The objective is to be the last one or two players standing.

After registration, rounds will begin. Each round, the host will provide a random pool of Items to choose from. A total list of all possible Items is located below. Each player will privately pick an Item (through PM) from the provided Item pool, and at the end of the round, picks will be tallied. All players who picked the Item with the most number of picks are eliminated, hence the name Minority Rule. In addition to this main rule, Items have other conditions that may result in elimination, so it's important to choose wisely. The number of Items in the pool will always be fewer than the number of players remaining, as to guarantee eliminations every round. For example, if there are 8 players remaining, there will only be 3-5 Items in the pool to pick from. Also, if two Items are tied for most picks (after Item effects have finished triggering), all players who picked the tied items are eliminated!

At the start of each round, players may be announced Hero status from the results of previous rounds. Hero status lasts for that round, and allows the player to pick any Item in the game, regardless of whether it is in that round's pool of Items. A player cannot remain a Hero for more than 1 turn.

Preliminary list of possible Items:

Registration begins now - post something like "I'm in" to register. Any number of players is acceptable; the more the better!

I'm in. Seems fun.

On a side note, what happens if Pride and betrayal are both the least picked items?

Betrayal becomes the most picked item, nothing happens to Pride. If Pride started out tied for the most picked Item, it will become the absolute least picked Item, so it cannot tie with any other Items.

Ow sorry, I meant what happened if Pride was tied for the most picked item, and betrayal for the least picked item.

For example, a four way tie when there're only 8 players and 4 items.

Pride becomes the least picked item (technically it would become an item with zero picks). Betrayal becomes the most picked item (infinite picks).

Oh, a rule I forgot to mention - if two Items are tied for most picks (after Item effects have finished triggering), all players who picked the tied items are eliminated!

But there's laughter and oh there is love, just past the edge of our fears.
And there's chaos when push comes to shove, but it's music to my ears.

^Liar Game is what initially inspired this game!

Round 1 has begun!

The Item pool for this turn:

Death
Once
Power
Once (Clone)
Chaos


Note: Picking Once (Clone) will trigger Once's effect, but picks are counted separately from the real Once, if that makes sense.

You have until 8:00 PM PST, 11/18/2013 to PM me your pick (approximately 28 hours after this post is made). Each turn afterwards will last 24 hours. I will be updating the thread every day between 8:00 and 9:00 PM PST. I'm not sure how often everyone visits the forum, so if this isn't enough time, let me know and I'll extend the deadlines.
