Hmmm you’ve got me interested now… so…

/in
/in…

I’ll play three times… I know… I know… it gives me three times the odds that I’ll win, but it also guarantees that I will lose at least twice.

Sure, count me in…

uh oh

One more?

Ok fine.

Woohoo!

So Idle, can we start?

Sure. I will now all PM you something and then write the rules and how to play/win.

Okay everyone.
FIRST of all:
The object is to win. You want to win. YOU do. You alone. You don’t want anyone else to win. This is a stand alone thing, so you don’t want to do anything that helps out others more than you, however, as you’ll find, you MAY need to work together with some people to get to the end.
Check your PMs, everyone.

I have given each of you part of a story. If you put all the parts together, you have a full story that, in order, makes sense.

The first person to type the NAMES OF THE PLAYERS, in order of their part of the story going from start to finish CORRECTLY, wins.

Here is who is playing:

You can figure out the correct story order many, many, many ways:

  1. You could trade parts with one another.
  2. You could make deals with one another.
  3. You could guess randomly at the order
  4. You could watch and observe where other people put themselves in the guesses and try to figure out abouts where they belong (or where they think they belong) in the story.
  5. Anything else you can think of to get the correct order. Really, anything goes.
    But the very first person to post the 10 player names in the correct storyline order (that they got), wins.
    Oh yeah, a person may have unlimited guesses at the order.

Have fun!
Go.

is the correct order.

Do I win?

Also, to all the players who are online right now…

If you show me yours I’ll show you mine.

offer only valid to players online at the time of this posting.

Nope. :slight_smile:

Fun game, eh?

I’m saving myself for marriage, which might take awhile considering Prop 8 and all…

well in the spirit of anything goes - exhaustively print out all possible combinations - one of them will be right

But in the spirit of reducing the printout by an order of magnitude
One day, Jack decided to go for a walk in the woods.

True, true…

…but the answer could probably be found more simply. :slight_smile:

Come on, ya’ll, use those powers of logic. It’s like a big logic game!

Trade, steal, finagle, swap, post publically, lie, cheat each other out of and guess parts.
The best way to figure the order out is for everyone to guess at the order putting yourself where you think you go. The more people who do this…the more it should get easier to find a pattern. With each guess, people will come closer and closer to the answer…because you can go back and look over guesses and see where people put/guessed THEMSELVES to be. Over time, that would help.

So you are saying you DON’T want to know what my piece of the story is?

Come on, you and me we’ll trade. BillMc too if he wants.

my guess

Nope…although you’re closer than NAF was. Some are good and some are wayyyy off.
