Week 1 Elimination Reveal

Quote:
For this elimination challenge, you have to create as many paperclips as possible.

You have 20 minutes (inclusive) from the timestamp when you open this PM until I receive a PM with the screenshot of your score (should also show the date/time on your computer). Every minute the PM is late will cost you 10% of your total score.

Sorry Eleanor, I saw your explanation (computer crash) but I have no way to verify it and the rules were explicit.

Time for week 2! The outgoing HoHos are eligible to compete in this competition. You are playing Rocky Road.

Each player starts with 15 rocks. In each round, you must move 4 rocks. You can move these rocks to another player(s), throw them away, or any combination of those options that you can dream of. Once everyone submits I will reveal the rock counts but not the actions chosen. The player with the most rocks and the player with the fewest rocks will be eliminated from this challenge.

The final 2 players will be your HoHos this week and will have the same safety/powers as last week.

You have 24 hours from my round start to send me a PM with your choice. If I don't receive a PM, I'll assume you're throwing away 4 rocks. In a tiebreaker, the PM I receive latest will be the elimination. You can send a placeholder PM and then update in the future, but once all PMs are in submissions are locked.

Clarification: Can we discuss this with other players (either in-thread or out of thread)?

Yup the first rule of communication always applies unless I say otherwise

13k deserved to be beaten, definitely did not get the mechanics of the game in time. Ran it again a second time and got 63k.

I think you need to get your rocks off without help from any of us.

I thought about this, but once we get rid of our rocks we are inherently at a disadvantage as we have the least number of rocks. So helping other people move farther away from us (giving them more rocks) felt like a bad idea.

Well this guy is a complete liar. I'm not sure if that means we should keep him around as known lying entity, or go ahead and oust him since we can't control him?

Weird time to gamble too. Like, if you say that early, maybe you sway some votes and/or just sort of happen to get lucky that it comes true. But at that point in the day, many people have probably already cast.

Haha yeah for sure. First stone throw there just seems like a huge crapshoot either way too
