Party (a Whose Line is it Anyway game)
Okay, I asked SkipMagic if I could make this game and got the green light. Many thanks to him.
This will be the game of Party. At least that's what I think it's called on the show. For those of you who have seen and are fans of Whose Line is it Anyway, you'll know this game. It's the one where there's a host of a party and the other people are all guests, but each one has a certain something about them that makes them weird. A disorder or quirk, if you will. And what they do is behave and act and talk with this disorder and the host has to try to find out what is each of his guests disorders based on the things that they say and the things they do (each guest has a different quirk). Online, this is how it would go. There will be two teams. The hosts (or guessers) and the Partygoers (who have the disorders/personality quirks). The Partygoers will all be PMed by me with a different sort of disorder that they need to show, at least once somewhere, in EVERY POST THEY MAKE IN THIS GAME TOPIC. For example...there may be a partygoer is is a constant misspeller. So obviously in every post they make when the game starts, they'll have a misspelled word. Or one might think he's Elvis..and thus all of his actions and posts would be things like "Say, you see Lisa Marie around lately?" or maybe start singing "You Ain't Nothin' But a Hound Dog". Whatever. There is no limit or rules as to how you show your disorder if you're a Partygoer. Just as long as you show it in every post you make after the game starts, then you may be as original and funny as you like. The Hosts (there will be more than one) will then each get one guess per Partygoer to find out what their disorder is. If they can successfully guess all the quirks, they win. If not, or if they run out of guesses for any one player, then the Partygoers win. A few small rules. Partygoers MUST post. This is so the Hosts can interact with you and talk with you and try to get reads. Really, anything is game in this game. Partygoers may talk about anything, interact with each other, talk amongst themselves and show their disorder however they want...just as long as they do it in every post in some fashion and not mislead it. I would be the judge on if a Host guesses correctly. And that's just about it. This game doesn't usually last very long. I'd say about three or four or, at the most, five days. But it's often very fun and very hilarious to participate in or even just read. So who's up for it? I already have a list of people who have pre-signed up. NAF1138 MadtheSwine dotchan HockeyMonkey I figure I'll give this sign up a full day and then start the game tomorrow early evening. Please note, this is NOT like mafia at all. The Partygoers will all get a PM from me before the game on what their disorder is, and all they have to do then is just show it, act it, behave it in every post during the game any way they wish. And that's it. And the Hosts just interact and talk with them until they feel sure enough to make a guess on someone. Easy yet really fun game, see?

If you're still curious about how it's played, take a peek at this YouTube video.

By the way, want to play, SkipMagic? |

Oh, thanks but no thanks. I'm not much of a message board game player. I'm a grumpy moderator, see; I ruin fun, not help it thrive.

I'll play.
Question -- will the hosts cooperate with each other, or are they competing amongst themselves to ID the quirks? |

Idle, when do you think this is going to start, if it is sometime today (and I just had to uncapitalize that D
)I am going to have to bow out of this round. It's my birthday this weekend and I don't expect to be around a computer a lot. But I am so in for any round that start Sunday-Wednesday. You let me know what you think. |

I'll use random.org to decide the teams, but there will probably be only about two or three Hosts. |

Yeah, the game will start today. Probably end around Tuesday (maybe Wednesday).
It's not a game one has to be around for or online for constantly, though. Just one of those where you post whenever you have the chance. List of players so far: MadtheSwine dotchan HockeyMonkey dnooman SSG Schwartz Barrington hawksgirl fisha CaerieD Autolycus twickster hocow fluiddruid lightingtool anyrose Taber Drain Bead Annie-Xmas Eighteen by my count. This game can, really, have any number of players. It's not one of those that last longer the more players there are, it's one that is more fun the more players there are. ![]() So sign up will only be for another three hours or so and then I'll random.org the teams and start PMing disorders/personality quirks. |

Okay, well, let's get this game started.
Through random.org, the three Hosts/Guessers for this game will be: hawksgirl anyrose fisha And all the rest of you are Partygoers: SSG dnooman hocow HockeyMonkey Taber Barrington Autolycus MadtheSwine fluiddruid Drain Bead Annie-Xmas twickster dotchan CaerieD lightingtool Partygoers, you have all already been PMed their personality quirk/disorder. Feel free to start posting in here as much as you want and talk with the Hosts, each other, or even just yourself. Hosts, you may make guesses at any time by putting, in bold (example): Guess: Mad the Swine is posting drunk. However remember that you all only get ONE guess each for every Partygoer. So if all three of you use up your one guess that you all have for, say, MadtheSwine, then the game is over and you have lost. I'll be keeping track of who makes guesses on who. I will also be setting up another topic (similar to the forbidden thread in Mafia) that I'll ask the Hosts not to read where anyone who's watching the game or even the Partygoers themselves can make guesses at what other's disorders are. However, I will not confirm or deny any guesses in that thread and ask the specific players who are being guessed about not to either. Also, Partygoers, please do not confirm or deny any guesses the Hosts make in this topic either. Just keep acting it until I come in to make the judging call. Once you're "guessed" you can just sit back and post normally (here or in the other thread), but please don't help the Hosts. If anyone has any questions just PM me. And that's it. Have fun. Go.

Nah. I'll PM you right now. You'll be a Partygoer.
And I can already tell this is going to be one hilarious game from Mad's post. |

well now, it seems kinda rude of me to start without the hosts, but as my good friend Yogi Berra says "Hey boo boo", errr, I mean "Sometimes the party starts without you, and sometimes you've got to start the party yourself."
sooo..... where should I begin meow? I guess the appetizer tray is over there, I'll just help myself to a few canapes, if no one minds. Gnip Gnop.Hey MadTheSwine, I was thinking of putting on a cd, any preferences? hmmm....maybe the White Album, or maybe Sargeant Pepper's lonely hearts club band, but I am open to suggestions.

hmmm...let's see, Zappa...Zappa...Zappa, sorry, not seeing it. I guess I'll put on Bark at the moon. You know, I have the most trouble with that song on Guitar hero. I've beaten most of expert, and I haven't yet beat it on hard. Palindrome emordnilap.
I like Every Rose has its Thorn too. (singing)Eeeeevery rooose has its thorn, just like eeevery cowboy sings a sad, sad song. Let's see, huh well, as my close associate Groucho Marx says "The means of production will be in the hands of the proletariat" errr, I mean, well "I'm doing alright, you?"

That's a good song. I'm not so good on that Guitar thing, though - all difficulty's harsh my calm.
I'm doing ok, thanks for asking. |

I think the best bet is to take/tackle each person one by one and see what all of their posts have in common, what they're always on about, stuff like that.
It's not as hard as it seems to be a Host, trust me. Just have to look for patterns and clues. Anyway, good luck! |

I'm very scared, folks. We never know just who's dangerous, and who might use the SDMB for their own evil, foul-breathed nastiness. We just don't know yet. Vigilance is the key to remaining unchewed, I tell you! VIGILANCE!
I'll be watching. |
