Isn't the rule that you just choose the funniest?

If the players decided in turns, it would make the game even slower - and if I chose the funniest one all the time, that wouldn't be too fun either. So I think it's best to take advantage of existing forum infrastructure.

I've just realized I don't really understand the rules for this. I mean, I know the rules normally, but, I don't quite get hat we're doing here.

Poll's up - sorry, OW.

vjm: To be honest, I'm kinda making them up as I go along... A black card is presented, players post their answers, I make a poll out of them, most popular answer wins. Rinse and repeat.

It's ended up a four way tie, and I know at least two (me and someone else) players didn't vote for their own.

Yeah, I didn't vote for my own. Helgo, you should make a tie-breaker poll between the two tied answers.

Now there's three tied answers.

Poll's up - sorry, OW.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

I did not even vote on purpose, to avoid such shenanigans. Now, if I do, I have the power to choose the winner... *must resist temptation to pick my own*

What if we modified the rules so that the guy who plays the Black Card chooses the winner, not answering his own Black Card. Then that winner will draw the Black Card and he chooses the next winner. This way people don't go voting for themselves.

Isn't that the standard rule?

OW, you're in Oceania, right? I'll try and compensate for that in the future, sorry.

And the winner is:
*drumroll*
Inserting a mason jar into my anus!

You'll find your new cards in your hands. The next black card is:

Why can't I sleep at night?

Spoiler: OW (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: MonkeyHead (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Cheesecake (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Sheb (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: vjm (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Finished rounds (click to show/hide)


EDIT: We can do that, too - but then we'll have to remember who 'played' the black card, since right now I'm essentially just dropping them in from outside. Let's try one more round with the voting - I don't know how much of an issue people voting for themselves really is - and if that doesn't work out, we'll switch.
