Hey there, all you puzzle-lovers(Or money-lovers, whatever)! Look what's back! (Again)
During Moosewood's term, I regretted how little this event was done(We did one game, to be exact.) So, back at the beginning of Limedoils' term, I asked them if they wouldn't mind sponsoring a continuation. In response, they gave me a wonderful $1,000 grant with which to fund the prizes for the game.
Well, since then, I've been pretty busy, so I haven't had the chance to run it. Well, with school about to start back up, I want to squeeze this in before the summer is over. So here it is, for the third time, Solve the Clues, Type Them In, Solve the Puzzle, WIN THE MONEY!!!
I realize that this has already had another thread, but I've decided to completely restart the game, since many of the players signed up in the old thread are now inactive, and simply to have a fresh start.
For this continuation, I've decided to revamp(anyone know what that even means?
) the game, changing things up a bit. One of the largest concerns about this game is that the nature of it favors those who are online more often. Well, I've managed to think up a fix to that. For this edition, I will be holding sign-ups. Once the sign-up period has ended, you will all be put into a bracket(size depending on how many people we get). Then, I will host a series of matches where two individuals will face off. These will be held at an agreed-upon time which will be determined by the two players and myself. The winner of the bracket will take home a large prize, and there will also be small prizes for each individual match (the exact amounts will depend on the number of players). The puzzles for each same-level matchup face will be the same, so everything is equal, and bookworm doesn't miss a puzzle.
Yes, I realize this complicates things, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask. It will also probably take longer, but I think it's worth it to have a better game.
Of course, if you all feel differently, we can switch back to the original format.
With that, sign-ups are now open! You may sign up any time between now and 11:59 PM PDT August 15, 2015.
8 players would be the ideal number, but I will figure out a way to make it work with more or less.
