Psych Out (Abandoned?)
« on: April 17, 2009, 03:57:05 pm »

I feel like there needs to be more Psychological Mind Games here, so I'm going to start some.

Psych Out

Everyone starts out with 10 points.
Before each round, everyone votes on one of two “answers.” These votes are tallied, and the one receiving the least amount of votes will be the correct answer. Those that chose the wrong answer will lose 1 point at the end of the round. Those who do not vote will lose 2 points. If there is a tie, I'll choose one randomly.

During the round, you may vote for what you think is the correct answer at any point. You will be told whether you are correct or not once you vote. If you are correct, you will win a certain amount of points, based on how many were lost and when you answered. If you are wrong, you lose 3 points. If you do not vote, you lose 1 point.

The person with the least amount of points at the end of each round, loses. If there is a tie, all those tied lose.

If you guess correctly, you will win a certain percentage of the points, such that:
If there is 1 winner, they win 100% (1/1) of the points
If there are 2 winners, they win 66% (2/3) and 33% (1/3)
If there are 3, they win 50% (3/6), 33% (2/6), and 16% (1/6)
If there are 4, they win 40% (4/10), 30% (3/10), 20% (2/10), and 10% (1/10)
And so on.

You can give away points and trade points for just about anything, as long as both players agree on the trade (Giveaways only need the giver's approval). All trades will appear at the end of the round. All trades may be canceled before then. Giveaways cannot be canceled.

Also, leave me in any pms for this game.

Now, the other rules are: There are none. Feel free to lie, cheat, make teams, quote mod, make up quotes, and deceive to win. Don't trust anyone, and don't think you've won until you've won. Win by any means necessary.

Also, does this seem like it'll work?
