I don't really have any bright ideas as of right now, but I don't really like this one. Don't like the idea of The Mole "targeting" a specific player.

Rand a different person to be the mole every round. You accumulate points as a non mole when you're a non mole, and as a mole when you're the mole. think of a standard round like this, with 8 players:

1,2,3,4,5,6,7 non mole
8 mole

Challenge is a quiz or whatever. Players 1-7 get points for every right answer. Player 8 gets points only for wrong answers. Mole cannot be executed.

Say player 5 ends up dying.

Next round:
1,2,4,6,7,8 none mole
3 mole

Challenge is an MS paint chain, with 10 defined keywords. Non moles get points for every key word that makes it to the end. Mole gets remaining points.

and so on?

Not a bad idea. Kind of strays away from the spirit of THE Mole show, but perhaps that's what's needed for forum translation

maybe each elimination has a totally different quiz.

maybe the quizzes are like those facebook quizzes like "Which harry potter character are you MOST like" types of quizzes.

or ESTP type of quizes, of like the quiz from Ultima IV

whatever....

but if each quiz was different maybe you would not figure out who it was that way.

Was it easy to figure out who the mole was here?

It seemed easy enough on the show.

Some of the challenges on the show were so bad :P
