This is a double-elimination trivia tournament designed so that there will be eliminations along the way resulting in only one person left standing at the end of the game. There may be no eliminations some rounds and there might be multiple eliminations in one round. Your performance and the performance of the other players will decide.
The set-up of this game is simple. Each round, you will be given a set of trivia questions based on the reality show that is the topic for the round. You will complete these trivia questions to the best of your ability and submit them to the host of the round (either lovetrivia or myself). Anyone who gets a score in the lower half of the players will receive a strike. The next time a player with a strike scores in the lower half, he/she will be eliminated. In the event that there are an odd number of players, we will round down to get the lower half. So, if there are 5 players left, then the bottom half will only consist of 2 players. In the event of a tie score, time will be used to break the tie. If players 3 and 4 both scored a 7, but player 4 submitted his/her answers first, player 4 will place higher than player 3.
The game will end when there is only one player left in the game. He/She will be declared the winner.
Additional rules:
1) If you think we may have some correct information, politely bring it to our attention. We will discuss it and if we agree with you, then we will rectify the situation. However, if you challenge every single incorrect answer you give or you do it in an impolite way, we are much less likely to want to help. We are human and prone to bouts of irritation, after all. (Anybody who's hosted knows what it's like
)
2) The general rules of the board are still in effect. That means no flaming, no spamming, no pornography, and anything else covered in the general rules of the board.
I may update/change the rules as I see fit. I will not do this to affect the outcome of the game in any way. I just reserve the right in the event that there may be something I have overlooked.
