So, they other thread didn't really get much response (that, plus I realized I cannot get into a game on that French Site because I am in too many already) so I decided to do this, hopefully more people will bite.
F.DS DIXIT!Rules:PREGAME:1. I will make a collection of pictures (cards) to be used in game. However, both players and spectators can also submit cards by PMing them to me (lets say max 10 each). Cards images should be portrait-oriented (higher than wide) and in spirit of Dixit: surreal-ish and without a real 'meaning'.
2*. Player will have the access to this library and are allowed to familiarize with cards, but I trust them not to abuse this power (like, check every single card for similarity every time). (I did not make the all the same size as I planned to, due to practical reasons).
3. I reserve the right to reject some images if I think they don't really fit or are to similar to some others.
GAME:1. Preferably we will have 6 players and 2-3 rounds. We can accommodate other number of players/rounds too, but in future riles I will assume that we are playing
6 players,
3 rounds, to keep it simple.
2. At the start of the game, players are dealt 6 cards. (regardless of number of players).
3. Each round consists of
6 turns, one for each player.
4. During his turn, player who's turn it is (called
storyteller) PMs me a card that he has in hand, and posts a 'description' of the card in thread.
5. Description can be anything from one word (or even less) to a paragraph of text or a song even. it doesn't really need to be exactly 'a description', it can be anything that relates to the card in any way. You usually only want to describe the card vaguely but sufficiently.
5a.* No links to other sites, videos or pictures allowed, words only. Also, you should not use internet to "research" anything. I cannot force this, but I would prefer if you guys ignored the physical qualities of the image (size, resolution) and focused only on the image itself.
5b*. Please, keep all the discussion/explanation for after the votes are revealed and before next storyteller sends me the image.
6. Each other player than PM me the card from their hand that they think matches the posted description the best.
7. When everybody PMs me their cards, I post them all in thread. Than, each player (except the
storyteller) PMs me which card do they think is the
storyteller's card. (They can't choose their own card).
8. When I receive all the votes, we than proceed to scoring the turn. Scoring goes as following:
a) If nobody OR everybody choose storyteller's card, he scores 0p and everybody else scores 2p.
b) Otherwise, if at least 1 person chose storyteller's card and at least 1 person 'missed', storyteller scores 3p.
c)* In any case, all non-storyteller player score 1 point for each 'vote' on their card. (up to max of 3 points)
d) If you guess the storyteller's card correctly, you gain 3p.
9. Everybody draws a card, and the turn ends.
10. Round ends when all players have been the storyteller (have taken the turn). After
3 rounds, the game is over and the person with highest score wins. In case of a tie, I guess, they rejoice in their shared victory!
