Thanks, Wind! This way you get to play, too. Any thoughts on whether I should try to start one soon and finish before the holidays, or wait until afterwards since many people will be travelling soon? Also, how'd people like loser's rule modifications? I personally enjoyed having everyone stay in the game, but I don't want to let my personal bias decide.

I thought of a couple of rule modifications that might make things more interesting and interactive -- a bonus for a one-person minority (such as Pip had this time) -- but a penalty for a 2-person minority (depending on the size of the game, of course)... Or do people enjoy the fact that there's a game where all you have to do is stealthily submit a PM every night and not want a lot of interaction?

P.S. Pip, seriously, just read the story already -- it takes less than 5 minutes. My English teacher told us that he'd originally written an ending and people didn't like it so much, so he changed it to the non-ending -- but then she couldn't tell me what the original ending was! I'd really like to know, but a google search didn't indicate anything about that. It's been bugging me for over a decade now.

Aaargh, now the idea of the lost ending will torment me too D=

As for the game, this round lasted for less than two weeks and with loser's modifications people aren't penalized too much if they miss a day or two, so I'm fine with starting right away. Of course you should ask everyone else too (and then go with the minority of course).

I say start right away. I want to play now

Even with holidays coming up, I think most people will be able to get on for a minute or two each day, which is really all it takes.

I like the lives system. Having an even number of people is dangerous, and it makes things a bit more exciting

That being said if you do run this during the holiday season, the point system would make more sense, as even though it only takes a minute or two do participate in this game, it would be easy to forget in this busy time.

I'm not sure I understand the penalty for a two person minorty rule.
do you mean like?
Majority (7), name name name name...
Minority (2) person person

That persons would lose points? If thats the case, then I disapporove.

As for the one person minority, I was tempted to do that rule, but I didn't think establishing it after the fact was fair.

So the rules I recommend:

• Players start off with -1 points.
• Sending 1-3 questions gives you 1 point.
• When a player answers in the minority, the gain 1 point
• If you are luck enough to be the only person to select one choice, you will recive a bonus point
• If you miss one round, it's ok
• Any additional rounds missed without a concrete excuse, you will lose 1 point
• If you get to -3 points, you are eliminated
• First person to 5 wins /list]
  
  As for my tiebreaker idea, it might be best for me to PM you if you are interested.
  
  
  That being said, start NOW!
