Trivial Chances Game 3

[lovetrivia]

Welcome to Trivial Chances Game 3!

I've gathered questions for a third game of "Trivial Chances" here at RGO! Please consider joining this mini-game and sign up below. Veteran and new members are all welcome! Why not ask a friend to join RGO and start by playing this game?


Here is a description of the game and the basic rules:

In this mini-game you will answer trivia questions. The theme is "First and Last."

Researching answers will not take much time, because each round will only have one "first and last" question. You WILL want to get it right! Question example: "What are the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet?" So, each round will have one question and the answer will be sent by PM to the host. Each round will last 24 hours.

The twist, to continue the theme of "first and last”: Each round, the first and last players who submit correct answers will be safe from elimination. This way hopefully players will not feel pressured to be here when a round is posted.

Elimination from a round will go as follows:

No submission or incorrect answers:
1) No submission of an answer – automatic elimination that round because of inactivity
2) Incorrect answer submitted – ineligible to be safe in the round. Players who send in wrong answers will be placed in the middle range between the first and last payers to send correct answers.

All players send in correct answers:
3) The first and last players to submit within the 24 hour period will be safe that round.
One of the "middle" players to submit will be eliminated by a random, preset number for the order of sending.

Ex: 10 players all submit correct answers. Player 1 (first) and player 10 (last) will be safe. One player who sent in 2nd through 9th will be eliminated. Suppose that 7 was the random number preset for that round, then the 7th player to send will be eliminated - so a little bit of luck, strategy, and chaos here.

When the game reaches the final 2 players, 5 trivia questions will be given in the last round. The players will send in the answer to each question separately, and decide the order and timing of sending their answers. Point values will be assigned according to a preset random timing of submission for each question. Incorrect answers will score 0 points so to score the point you must be correct and in the position (first or last to send) chosen for that question. If there is a tie in the final round then the player who answered more answers correctly will win. The player who scores the most points will become the winner and receive a HOF.

Registration is open to up to any number of players and will last until Friday, Sept. 25th at 11 PM EDT. I am hoping for at least 15 players.

Registration is extended to get enough players.

At least 48 hours notice will be given before the game starts. I plan to have a round posted about every other day with the random times each round like the other seasons. This game will only be fun with active people, so please make sure you are committed and able to play (be here) when signing up.

I hope you sign up, play, and have fun

ooh, ooh! You "picked" to sign up for the game - did you see it on Face book? Glad to see you, too, Brennus!

The game has been advertised at SEG, Forumsnet, on my Face Book Wall and at Heather's boards. I am almost out of options that I have for advertising.

If any of you have places to advertise, please help.

With the first 2 games all players came from here or SEG with one "friend of a friend" who loved trivia.

Registration will remain open - won't give up yet.

I'm a very dependable, prompt host.
