I added two. What would you do? Support your team now!

After seeing the ongoing struggle between the likes and dislikes on a youtube video, I thought I could make a game out of it. :smiley:

So here goes:
Let us divide ourselves into two teams

Everyone whose username starts with the letters A, C, E, G, I, K, M, O, Q, S, U, W, and Y will be Team Add.

Users whose username starts with B, D, F, H, J, L, N, P, R, T, V, X, and Z will be in Team Subtract.

(Yes we could change the team’s name to a more menacing one.)

Here is what we are going to do:
We will start with a base score of 250.
Team Add’s goal is to make this 500 while Team Subtract will try to make it zero.
A post from Team Add is worth 2 points while a post from Team Subtract will be -2 points.

Ex.
First post - TEAM ADD: 250 + 2 = 252
2nd post – TEAM ADD: 252 + 2 = 254
3rd post – TEAM SUBTRACT: 254-2 = 252
And so on until the score reaches either zero or 500.

To avoid an adding/subtracting spree, each user will only be allowed to post again after another user has posted.

So I’ll start now:
250 + 2 = 252
…and Team Add is currently leading!

252-2=250

oh Duckster! It should be 252-2 = 250 :smiley:

250 + 2 = 252

252 - 2 = 250.

I think with 125 posts needed from either side (without reply from the opposite team), neither will even come close to victory. Maybe if 50 were the starting point and 0 and 100 the targets, it would be more achievable.

250 + 2 = 252

I figure Dead Cat may be right. But what the hell, I’ll play to see if we can even get to 260.

252 + 2 = 254

254 + 2 = 256

256-2=254

254+2=256

256+2=258

Go Add team go! Let’s show those Subtract jerks who’s the boss here!

258+2=260

260-2=258

Oh, no, you cheating subtracter, you won’t.

258+2=260

260+2=262

260-2=260

Blast it all, Subtracters! Give me a hand here!

260+2=262

Naturally, I am on the superior team

262+2=264

yaaawn Beating these losers is too easy.

264-2 = 262

262-2=260
