No offense to Tom but I think you should get priority. You asked about booking Gamble in first, and it's unfair for Tom to keep doing these 'surprise' versions of Versus when pre-planning is essential to these type of games.

Like I said, I'm not having a go at you Tom, I'm just saying that the reason people book games in for certain months is because they've been pre-planning for ages and don't want other people to just casually waltz in and take their game slot.

That's just my views on it anyway.

[Benjamin]

I have to agree. June seems very soon to be holding the next one. It would only be 6/7 weeks between games. Most games have a gap of 6 months between them. I know you are eager to host another game but it's better to wait and get the game better prepared than to rush it and cut corners, plus a similar game will be on at the same time (TiBB BB).

Idea I'm toying with for after my next game of OC maybe:

(Not my logo, this is based on a South Korean show)

In The Genius Game, 10 players start and much successfully pass 8 rounds to win. In each round, there is a Main Match and a Death Match. Everyone competes in the Main Match, with the winner receiving two immunity tokens and the loser being the "Elimination Candidate". The Elimination Candidate then chooses one other player without immunity to play against in the Death Match. The Death Match is a one-on-one competition, with the loser being eliminated from the competition.

The matches are games of strategy and logic, where players must work together and against each other in order to be victorious. The game uses a currency known as "Garnets" which can be won during the Main Match, these may be used to buy various aids during the game. When someone is eliminated in the death match, the player who eliminated them receives all of their garnets. The overall winner is the person who holds all of the garnets at the end of the game.

An example Main Match would be the Kong Dilemma, played with 6 people:

The six players are split into 2 teams of three, and each player is given a set number of pebbles of their team's colour. Each player then secretly puts as many of their pebbles as they want into a vase, and at the end of the match, the team with the most coloured pebbles in that vase wins. However, the winner of that game is the member of the winning team who put the least pebbles into the vase. Therefore, players will have to convince the rest of their team to put a lot of pebbles in to win, but not themselves put many pebbles in.

[Headie]

That sounds great Tregard

Might as well post my format for 'The Decider' so other people can see it and think about whether they want to apply or not (it still needs a lot of work but I'm sure it'll be ready for October)

[T*]

I've been saying that I'm going to do versus in June, Look at the last page of the versus thread. I did get approval first and I'll pull out if it clashes with Kate's but it will be a short series at the end of June. It's not a suprise season.

I should've known that people would have a go at me for doing it, it's just my luck and I've just had about enough with this forum

[Headie]

Game Format
At the start of each round there will be an immunity challenge. The winner of this challenge will become The Decider and will be immune from that round of nominations. The remaining players will then nominate 2 other players by private messaging me the 2 names of the players they want to see nominated (The Decider will not take part in the nominations process). However, nominating the players you least get on with may not be the best strategy if you want to succeed in this game, because the 2 or more players with the highest amount of nominations will compete in a Save & Replace task and this will give one of the nominees the chance to remove themselves from the block and replace themselves with one of the players currently safe. The nominee who wins the Save & Replace task can save another nominee instead of saving their self if they wish to do so. After this has been done, The Decider will choose which of the nominees to eliminate from the game by sending me a private message stating clearly the name of the person they decide to eliminate. At the Final 4 stage, the players will still have the Immunity Challenge at the beginning of the round to determine who becomes ‘The Decider’, however the 3 players that do not win the challenge will automatically be nominated and will participate in a ‘Save’ task. The winner of that task will be able to remove themselves from the block (or one of the other nominees if they choose to stay nominated) and The Decider will choose who to eliminate out of the two remaining nominees. The final 3 stage will simply be an immunity challenge to determine who becomes The Decider and then the winner of that challenge has to immediately decide which of the other 2 players to eliminate. The final 2 will then face the jury. The Jury will consist of eliminated players and they will ultimately become the final ‘Decider’ on who wins the game.

The Decider cannot be the same person in back-to-back rounds. However, they can still compete in Immunity challenges and, if they win, they get to decide who The Decider will be for that round (they can’t pick themselves since they were the previous Decider), although by doing this they are also giving their immunity to the person that they choose, so they are still eligible to be nominated that round and will take part in the nominations process.

After the Immunity challenge, players will have around 16-18 hours to send me their 2 nominations and then the Save & Replace task will be immediately after the nominees are revealed.

Extra Notes
-Strikes will be given out for inactivity during the game. Failing to participate in the game or constant inactivity will result in immediate disqualification and removal from the game. This is mainly in relation to the following:
1) Failing to send me the names of the 2 players you wish to nominate (All players)
2) Failing to participate in the Save & Replace task (Nominees only)
3) Failing to send me the name of the nominee you decide to eliminate (The Decider only)

-Players can be as tactical as they want and are free to discuss nominations and gameplay with each other.

-Nominees MUST NOT receive help from ANYONE during the Save & Replace task. However, players in the game are able to help each other with Immunity challenges if they wish to do so.

-NO HELP FROM USERS OUTSIDE OF THE GAME. This is YOUR game, not theirs.

Seriously dude, read my whole post instead of nit-picking.

No ones having a go at you, but it just seems like you're rushing into things way too soon and Kate's been planning to do Gamble in June for quite a while now I believe.

[T*]

I'll pull out versus2 then

Btw versus 2 was going to be very late June/early July, a game lasting about 2-2 1/2 weeks, I wasn't going to clash with it but anyway

[Kate!]

I'm hoping to be doing mine at the beginning of June Tom for two weeks, pending approval of course. I've yet to post the game write up for consideration. Therefore Versus at the end of June wouldn't be a clash, and I'd apply to play again

Please don't take it wrong, you're like myself, take things to heart, but try not to, it's great you're so keen and you're an absolutely lovely lad. It is too soon tbh (IMO) to do Versus again really, I'd say that about any game on here, twice a year ... roughly every six months is enough hmm?

I can't wait to hear the format of Gamble... think I will most likely apply for it

[Benjamin]

Tom nobody is having a go at you, but you only just did Versus and now you are planning to do it again 7 weeks later? Just seems a little rushed.

Tregard and Hayden sounds awesome. Future hosts extraordinaire I think.
