Welcome...to The Weakest Link!

I have decided to take the TV show and put a Smash Bros. theme on it. You will not win real money, but there will be a leaderboard so you can compete with others.

In case you don't know, here are the rules of the game.

the game is played with one team of six people. In each round I will ask you all questions, as many as possible. If you answer correctly, you increase the ammount of money on your 'chain'. For every correct answer, the chain gains more monetary value. However, if any of you get a question incorrect or take too long to answer, the chain is broken, ans any money built up is lost. To save the money you have achieved, you can yell "BANK" before I come up with the next question. This secures any money you have obtained, but it also ends the chain, setting it back to $0. Any money in the bank at the end of a round will continue into the next round, but one member of the team will not. At the end of the round, all team members must PM me who they think was the "Weakest Link", or the worst player. The player with the most votes will be thrown out of the team. If there is a tie in votes, the "strongest Link", or the best player will get to decide who is thrown out. The rounds continue until there is only 2 people left. They must then face off in the final round. I will ask the, 3 questions each, whoever gets the most right wins all the money. If there is a tie, we play sudden death until someone wins the money.

Here are specific forum-related rules:
-Each round will last 1 day per contestant remaining. (ie 5 contestants, 5 days)
-If you answer quick enough, I will be able to ask more questions before the time limit is up.
-A player has a maximum of 2 days to answer a question. After that, the chain is broken and their turn is skipped.
-If a player answers a question when it is not their turn, the chain is broken.
-If someone who is not playing answers a question, the chain is not broken, but the question is skipped, and the intruder cannot sign up for the next game.

Good luck to you all. I am now accepting contestants for the first game.

Just a note: You must be able to come online a lot to participate in this game. If you take to long to answer a question, you risk losing money for your team mates, or possibly you!

Here are some examples so you understand.

Host: What is 2 + 2?
P1: 4!

the chain is now at $1000, so it will look like this

$2500 <--- The red price indicates what is at stake for the next question, it has NOT been won yet.
$1000 <---The blue prices indicate what has already been won on the chain. If someone decides to BANK, the highest price will be saved in the bank.

Host: What's this game called?
P2: Super Smash Bros., Melee!

$5000
$2500
$1000

Host: What's 2 X 2?
P3: Uhhh...10?

Oh no! a Wrong answer! Now the chain is broken!

$1000 <---Now nothing is on the chain. It has to start over.

*Fast Forward*

$50000
$25000
$10000
$5000
$2500
$1000

P5: BANK! <--Notice he said BANK before I said the next question.

$1000 <---Now the chain has ended...
Bank: $25000 <---But now $25000 is saved safely in the bank.

$125000
$50000
$25000
$10000 <--- This is a completed chain
$5000 Nothing will happen until the next person shouts BANK.
$2500 Don't forgetc to, or all the nomey may be lost...
$1000

Um...what is this?

Scratch that. I know about the Weakest Link but....an online version if it......eh.

Does this mean you're playing or not?

quote RpgGuru

Games aren't really allowed on this forum.
That being said, you are the weakest link. Goodbye!

Oh yeah.

Then what the crap is this?

Caption Contest

Notice the thread creation was over a year ago.

...Your Point Being...?

...point being game threads will usually die out...

...What is the whole forum against me? 5 different people...

Anyway, what are you talking about? The Caption Contest was posted in just yesterday...

So what? Is this the one forum where games are not allowed? If so, Why?

A Forewarning? You mean like in the general discussion, or a seperate thread for signing up? Okay, I'll remember that next time...

Anyways, we're still waiting for players.

I will keep updating this post with the players
