Task 13

This game will be played with all players in one pool, so 12 players. It will have 4 rounds, with bottom 4 being eliminated round 1, then bottom 2, then bottom 2, then final round...so 12 players, 8 players, 6 players, 4 players

There may be slightly different rules each round, but they will all be played similiarly to the first round


Round 1 Rules: pm me a # between 1-127 and a person's name from the below list. I will rank you in order of closest to my rand() number to furthest from my rand() number. Then I will go down the list and switch you with the person that you specified. After everyone's switch has been made, that will be the final order and the bottom 4 drop out. Top 4 in round 1 will also get 2 rods each for their team. Additionally, before I post final list, I will let each mole see the list and switch their place with any one person that they wish. Mole who was closest to my rand() number gets to make their decision first. Also, if 2 people guessed same number in a round, i will rand() to determine who is first on that list.

Note: you may specify yourself as the person; thus u wouldn't do any switching when it's your turn


Ask any questions on this thread; no discussing strategy with anyone; get me your first pm (#/person) by Monday 2pm...next week we'll try to do 1 round/day so be around next week once per day to see the current player list and pm me your choice...if everyone pms me early, then this will move faster as well

Player List:
Spook
DMK
Jack
Boiler
Kyro
FMX

Tokyo
Monk
Alex
Btmagnet
Zurvan
Chuck

example:

Durron/Jared/VR play the game


Durron - 5/jared
Jared - 3/jared
VR - 6/durron

Rand # - 1

Original Order:
Jared
Durron
VR

Jared switches with himself = jared/durron/vr
durron switches with jared = durron/jared/vr
vr switches with durron = vr/jared/durron

jared was mole so switches himself with durron = vr/durron/jared as final order

kyro
zurvan
btmag
dmx
monk

do you mean we name 2 people now to switch, and neither can be ourselves? and what do you mean you go through the list twice? order, switch, then switch again? i'm not seeing what's the significance of that.

no, just name one person...the difference is u cannot name urself this time

i'll run through the list twice...doesn't change anything u do...may change order tho

example:
durron 10 jared
vr 5 durron
jared 1 vr

number = 4
so,
vr/jared/durron
durron/jared/vr
durron/vr/jared
jared/vr/durron after one pass
jared/durron/vr
vr/durron/jared
vr/jared/durron after two passes

so it changed the outcome

Task 14: Minority Report

This game is a variant on sheep. I will give you 10 questions with TWO choices. You want to choose the choice that gets the LEAST responses. If there is an exact 50/50 split on them, then nobody scores. You get points = # of non-moles who said your choice provided your choice was the minority choice. One more caveat: if your team's mole chooses your choice, then you can't get any points for it, even if it was the minority, but your answer still counts for the total # of non-moles saying that choice.

So both teams play together, so 12 people + 2 moles. That means that up to 5 non-moles could choose a minority answer.

Example: Yes or No?
4 Pinpals say Yes, 2 say No, mole says No
1 Isotope says Yes, 5 Isotopes say No, mole says Yes
total: 5 yes, 7 no -> yes is the minority choice
4 pinpals get 5 points each
0 isotopes get points


Any questions, ask away
The 10 questions will be up soon; u'll have until Monday morning to send answers

Task 14 Results

The minority answers were:
Wolf
OOT
360
Tornado
UK Office
Chuck Norris
Drew Carey
Intelligence
Skill
Snow Skiing

The Pin Pals Mole got Wolf/UK/Chuck, so Pin Pals players who said those minority answers won't get any points for them.

2 players scored 24 points total for Pin Pals
3 players scored 39 points total for Isotopes

Isotopes get 7 rods and Pin Pals get 4.

Bonus: 1 player swept the board with ALL minority answers. They get 1 bonus rod for Pin Pals for doing so.


Aside: I shoulda done inverse scoring, so if only 1 person said a minority answer, it should be worth more than if 4 people said it...oh well
