The Games of Xiz [[Weakest Link]]

[Xiz]

ROUND 7 WILL BE DECIDED SOON

Rules of The Weakest Link:
In each round the aim is to answer enough questions about random topics through skype correctly to reach your 5000 credit target within the time limit. The fastest way is to create a chain of nine correct answers. Get your question wrong and you break the chain and loose all the money in that chain. But, if you say 'Bank' before the question is asked the money is safe. However, you start a new chain from scratch.

In the senario of a tie during voting, the strongest link will choose who he/she wants to be voted off. Same applies for a 3-way tie.

(For more information and examples of how the game works, see links below)

x) In the case of a tie from round 9, a sudden death game will take place.

Requirements to Play:

- Must have Skype
- Must have a microphone & headphones

Additional Rules:

- No cheating. I know this will be hard for me to moderate, so I will be going off of trust, and hoping you will not use the internet for guides. NO KEYBOARD STROKES/CHATTING ALLOWED DURING THE GAMES. Any sounds from keyboards will result in immediate disqualification and banning from any of my future tournaments.
- Be silent when it is not your turn. Only speak when you are spoken to. The interference in the Skype call will cause confusion for the other players. Breaking this will cause immediate disqualification.
- In each round, the questions will get progressively harder. Each game will have AT LEAST 40-50% QUESTIONS RELATING TO FFR
- During the voting period, each user MUST type me who they want to be voted off via private message on skype. Then, when called upon they will reveal via voice who they want voted off. (To prevent changing)
- Each game will be recorded and youtube'd
- COMPETITORS WILL BE CHOSEN AT RANDOM FROM THE LIST OF WHO IS SIGNED UP. I will ask at random for you to join, the first 9 who join will be added into the game first. Once you have lost, you are done.
- If you get chosen as the weakest link, you will be dropped from the call. Before the drop you have 5-10 seconds to say your final words.
- If a player is AFK/disconnects from a round, they will be disqualified.

The statistical strongest link can be determined by:
number of correct answers.
questions answered that are of high values. (AKA harder questions in the round)
most money banked for the team.




Conversely, the statistical weakest link can be determined by:
number of incorrect answers.
questions answered that are of low values.
least money banked for the team.
most money lost for the team answering questions of high values incorrectly.
time spent/wasted on answering a particular question.




In the situation of a tie-breaker
The strongest link will choose who he/she wants to eliminate.*

Thesunfan
J-rod123
Ryuyasha
Jake Furgeson
Cammygoeswrar

Results:
After a few speedbumps, everyone managed to work together and get up to a grand total of 65,000 credits. Round by round players kept getting eliminated. However, I don't think the contestants understood how to play the game, as the voted off the strongest link 5 times in a row at the beginning. In the final round, Jake Furgeson and Cammygoeswrar were the last two contestants standing. Some of the hardest questions were asked, and each contestant struggled to answer questions correctly. However, Jake was able to hold off Cammmy with a 1-0 score in the final round, earing 65,000 credits.

Results:
Things went ALOT more smoothly this round. Players now understood the grasp of the game, and worked very well together by frequently banking. They managed to get at least 1,000 credits every round, giving them a grand total of 48,500. In the end, Thesunfan and Ryuyasha were left standing. The battle became heated as the two kept neck and neck as they both had 1 point each. Then the question of "Who is known as the muffinator on FFR" was asked, and Ryuyasha answered correctly, being Charu. Ryuyasha walked away as this rounds winner, walking away with 48,500 credits.

Results:
Contestants really didnt prove themselves this round. There were a lot of easy questions that were missed. I should have probably chosen actual contestants instead of these monkeys I found drunk in a gutter. Regardless, two shined through to the end, being Megamon88 and Femanic. At the end, Femanic was able to hold on early to a 1-0 lead over Megamon winning a grand total of 95,500 credits.

[j-rodd123]

sounds fun, i'll most likely sign up closer to the date!

[thesunfan]

this does seem fun.
I really hope you try to impersonate the host as closely as possible.

[TheSaxRunner05]

Dr who special! Lol. Definitely interested if I'm free.

[dragonmegaXX]

I would actually love to do this. Any chance you could make it earlier or later though? I work from like 4:30pm-12am server time :c

Also if we can get a solid group of 9 we could just do it whenever we're all free

[d4u7211]

sounds good, I'll give it a try

Absolutely. I was actually thinking of doing that. I was planning on making a Skype group, like a lobby. When I see 9 on I'll just do it then, ya know? And there will absolutely be more then one game. And the current time / day is vague. Until I get a solid group together.

I'm going to adjust it to see when everyone is free.
You know... I might do a doodle or something with everyone and separate groups like that....

On a side note:
- Once I have at-least 18 people I will send out a doodle, to see what time everyone is available for The estimated Jan 19th Date. Those who cannot make it will be in the second group, which will happen on a different date (probz the day after)

- During the voting off period, users will need to Private Message me their choice for who to vote off, to prevent changing their answer.

[TC_Halogen]

I'd play this, but I live under a rock and would probably embarrass myself. This is such an excellent idea, though. I would love to see some awesome video editing in addition to the gameplay!

Oh, by the way: if you're playing a game-show style game, you need a serious prize.
