FFR - Race To A Billion
The Big Rules
Right, here, in the Race to a Billion "studio" that is actually a random thread in the middle of nowhere, to win, you must avoid opponents' bombs and be the first to get $1,000,000,000!
This game consists of rounds, and there will be 4 players in each round. The square amounts will be under a 6*4 grid.
At the start of each round, the four players playing in that round will PM me a bomb placement. If I don't receive the bomb placement in 48 hours then I get to pick the square for their bomb without telling them. Each player takes it in turns to pick a square, getting cash, bonuses, minigames or bombs. If the board is clear, or if there is only one player left, they have won the round and are guaranteed in the next. Newcomers are guaranteed in the next round after they join.
Timeouts
When it comes to your turn I will give you 72 hours (Tres Dies) to pick your square which you will post here. If you time yourself out then you will automatically be exterminated from the round without warning. You will also lose the relevant cash amount as if being bombed.
If your AVx is less than 1, then it will get reset to 1 just as you time yourself out. This means that if you have one of those horrible negative multipliers you can't escape your inevitable fate by procrastination.
Winning a Round
You win a round if1. The other players have hit a bomb
2. When the board is clear
You recieve the bonus of 50k (or more if you picked a bonus square) and an extra $2,500 for every square remaining! If there is more than 1 winner the prize is split!
Square Types
Cash Squares
Cash Squares
These range from $2.5 MILLION down to the realms of -200K. They are quite straightforward. What you get is multiplied by your AVx and added to your score.
Bonus Squares
All Values Multipliers - What the square does is to show the effect on the multiplier itself, not the values. So if you get a (AV+7) then your new AV multiplier is 1+7=8. If you then pick a (AV/2) then it becomes 8/2=4. If you then pick a (AV*-1) then it becomes 4*-1=MINUS 4 and you really don't want that to happen. If you then pick a (AV^1/2) then you'll be playing a completely imaginary game with imaginary cash and imaginary bombs and you REALLY don't want that to happen.
End Of Round Percentages - These go from -10% to 60%. These are added to your total score at the end of a round if you win.
More Squares
- This is the square that you must try to avoid. At the start of each round, players PM me with the square they want to put a bomb in. If you hit a bomb, you are eliminated from the round. You lose $50,000 if you're the first to be bombed out; $40,000 if you're the second; and $30,000 if you're the third. When you get bombed I will reveal what was behind that square when I designed the board for that round. It won't, however, have any impact on the round, no matter what the square is. It is possible for multiple bombs to be placed in the same square. If you hit one of these, then you lose the relevant cash amount multiplied by the number of bombs in that square.
- The BLAMMO is placed by the person last bombed out of the previous round (timeouts don't count). Once hit, there are four buttons to choose from. These are:1. Block the Blammo
2. Eliminate someone else (at random) in the round
3. Eliminate yourself
4. Being put in a threshold situation (your time limit is reduced to 24 hours and you lose $75,000).
If a BLAMMO is in the same square as a bomb then the bomb takes over and the blammo has no effect, unless someone has immunity.
- This square "yoinks" you out of the round and "yoinks" someone else in!
- This puts two extra bombs on the board anywhere I want. Anyone can suffer an untimely fate by finding these...
- This puts two extra bombs on the board anywhere I want. However, only you can hit them. If someone else hits them, then the square that is placed behind it will have effect.
- Every cash amount picked is multiplied by 2!
- Every cash amount picked is divided by 2!
- *guess*
-Those who use Windows Vista will know EXACTLY what it does!
- This resets your AVx to 1.
- If you pick this square, then a person still active in the round (including yourself)will be picked, at random, to be immune to all bombs in the round. But not blammos.
- You miss your next go. If the others are bombed out before your turn, then you still win the round.
- Self-explanatory.
- If there are only two players left in a round, this could be an advantage, as the other player will have to keep picking squares until he bombs himself out. However, if you win, you won't be allowed to play any minigames. For obvious reasons there won't be two of these squares in the same round.
- If you win, your winnings for the current round are taxed by 15%. >:3
- This square adds $50,000 to your score immediately, and a further $50,000 to your score for every one of your goes until you get bombed.
- For every square that has been revealed, you are told how many of the eight surrounding squares have bombs in them, just like in the Windows game of *guess*.
- You get to keep this until you use it. If there is a square already revealed on the board that you really want, then you can use it on that square when it comes to your turn, and it will apply to you. If you get bombed then you will lose the Copy & Paste square.
- All the other players in the round donate 2% of their grandtotal to you, regardless of whether they have been bombed out or not.
- You keep this little beauty for as long as you want. For one time, you can shield yourself from a bomb blast.MINIGAMES
note that you will only be able to play the minigame if you win the round
note that you will only be able to play the minigame if you win the round
- 16 squares. You must find the penguin quickly. There is a $2,048,000 top prize, but it halves each time you find a bomb.
- 9 squares. Here, you must not hit nine until the last square. Numbers ONE to NINE will appear. You keep picking squares until you hit the square with NINE behind it. The longer you last, the more cash you get.
- A board of 24 squares appear. 2 C's, 2 A's, 2 S's, 2 H's and the rest BOMBs will appear on the board. The game is over when you pick one of a C, A, S and H. The fewer the turns, the more money you get.
- A board of 15 squares consist of 3 each of BOMBs, $500s, $5,000s, $50,000s and $500,000s. The first triple revealed is added to your score, but 3 BOMBS remove $50,000 off your score. Hidden Squares
you will be PM'd when you find one of em.
1. Defuse - You can defuse your bomb. It stays with you until you use it.you will be PM'd when you find one of em.
2. Deflect - It passes a bomb to someone else. It stays with you until you use it.
3. Bomb Finder - You will be PM'd where one of the remaining bombs are (not the one you placed)
4. Nitrous - You are guaranteed in the next round and you can place 3 bombs!
5. Force Bomb - You can force bomb someone else in the round, just PM me.
6. Broken Fuse - You are guaranteed in the next round, but you cannot place a bomb!
