Assassins round 5 signup thread

Postby umop ap!sdn » Wed Nov 08, 2006 12:41 am

Yeah, long overdue, I know. :P Finally got around to cleaning out my PM folders.

For this round, there's a twist - there's no play thread. Anywhere on the board that you get your target to post their word counts as a kill, if they did so in response to you. This can include, but is not necessarily limited to:

- Quoting a post of yours provided they use their kill word outside of the quoted portion;
- Answering a question of yours (no matter whom you asked);
- Addressing you by (screen)name in reference to something you posted about.

I know, there's some gray area here but I will attempt to always follow the spirit of the game, namely to get your target to say their word.

If you make a kill you must PM me the link to their post unless I see it before you check back, in which case you'll already have received a new target and words.

The posting frequency rule should be board-wide, but I think the responsibility should be on each player to keep track of their target's frequency. Anyone agree/disagree?

I'll leave this thread open for counterassassination attempts and *BANG* posts.

I'm looking at maybe starting the game either Sunday night or Monday.

Who's in?

BANG!

Your kill word was "won".
No trees were killed in the posting of this message.

Not any more. "In" was your kill word.

I'll give it another go. Maybe I'll be able to keep up with the one-post-a-day requirement this time.

I want to play!!! Did you guys start already? :(

Mickal might want to play too, he missed the last game. Someone should see if he noticed the sign up thread. (I just noticed it today myself)

BTW: Congratulations on becoming a moderator, hippie!!!! I knew you'd make a great moderator!!!

What happens is someone types the kill word, but misspells it?

Um... okay. Lol, you and Moose are more excited than I am.

And I haven't actually *done* anything yet, BTW... :P

That brings me to the point I wanted to make in a more forceful way than I could possibly have imagined. What if someone's spelling/syntax is so mangled nobody can figure out what has been said?

It still counts. :twisted:

I can't believe I am such a flake... lemme clean out my PM folders (again!) and then we'll start. Glad to have our last minute player(s) in the game. :D

PM's have gone out and the game is now in play. Since there's no actual play thread, I'm leaving this thread open to announce the deaths in.

Have fun everybody!
