Superrodan is eliminated in the 1st round.

Nexal has advanced to the 2nd round and also secures Superrodan's garnet.

Superrodan, please return your name tag and garnets.



That concludes today's game. To the 11 players who survived the 1st round, I will see you in the 2nd round on Monday.

We will now begin the second Main Match....Pandora's Box



This is a game where you attempt to have as many good spirits (white stones) and as few bad spirits (black stones) as possible. White stones are worth points, and each black stone costs the possessing player a point.

This game will take place in the thread and IRC. You will need to submit your actions to me via IRC. While you will not be permitted in rooms during the game, stay logged into the server so I can message you.


Rules

1) At the beginning of the game each player is given 6 white stones and 6 black stones. A gold stone is put into the box.

2) On a player's turn they have two moves. They must drop one stone from their hand into Pandora's Box. This can be either colour, but must come from your hand. This is done in secret. After adding a stone, the player may choose to switch their entire hand of remaining stones with any other player. This second action is optional, but if chosen both players must swap their entire hand. Who you are switching with is declared publicly, but the contents of each player's hand are not revealed to any other player.

3) If the stone that the player added to Pandora's Box was their last stone they cannot swap with another player (they have nothing to swap) and instead must open Pandora's Box. The contents of Pandora's box now belong to the player and the game ends.

Game flow

In order, a person will declare their action by posting in the thread "I am placing my stone and not switching hands" or "I am placing my stone and switching hands with _____" after which you will message me on IRC with what colour stone you are placing. If you are switching hands I will respond to you and the player you switched with what your new hand is. Then I will post in the thread it is the next player's turn. Do not take your turn until I have confirmed the last action complete.

Each time we move through the entire player list you will have 10 minutes to use the IRC rooms to strategize before we begin the next round. The game will take up to 12 rounds, but can end at any time if a person uses their last stone. You will have 15 minutes before the start of the first round to strategize.

Scoring

Once the game ends, each player gets one point for each white stone they have and loses one point for each black stone. The gold stone is worth 11 points.

If there is a tie, the player who opened Pandora’s Box, or who is closest to that player in turn order, among those who tied, wins the game. In other words, if multiple players tie for the win, the one among them who just opened the box, or would be next to have a turn had the game not ended, wins the game. Be sure to keep this in mind when choosing who to switch with.

The winner will receive 5 garnets, as well as a token of life for themselves and another to give to the player of their choice. The person with the least points will be the candidate for the death match. If there is a tie for least points then the winner will choose from among them who is the candidate for the death match. The candidate will then choose someone without a token of life to challenge to the death match.

We will practice by playing two rounds (two go throughs of the player list). The order you are playing has been randomized. This will remain the order through both the practice game and the real game. It is as follows:

1) winvirus
2) Nexal
3) Roland Jones
4) Kitiara
5) John Cena
6) Little Mac
7) mr. capps
8) Fast Luck
9) Hal Incandenza
10) Meinberg
11) FewtureMD

You have 10 minutes to strategize or ask any questions before we begin practice round 1. You may use the IRC rooms.

It is now time for the Practice Round 1

Remember your action is done in thread by saying: "I am placing my stone and not switching hands" or "I am placing my stone and switching hands with _____" then messaging me on IRC.

Please wait for my confirmation before the next person goes.

winvirus, you're up first.
