Guess the Number (a Single Submission Game - Results!)
« on: December 05, 2012, 03:13:06 pm »

To join, send me a PM with first line in the following format:

"Guess the Number: #"

where "#" is your guess. You are attempting to guess which (valid) submission yours is. So if you are the third person to join, you want to guess 3. Once you join, you are locked in at that position; no joining multiple times.

The game will end when no one new has joined for 48 hours. No alts or private discussion, please.

If you guess correctly, you score that many points. Whoever submits the funniest message body with their submission gets half a point. (So the winner is whoever submits the last correct submission, or the funniest if no one is correct.)

Feel free to post here to mess with people; only valid PMs will be counted, however.

Not sure that I understand this. We PM you the # we think we've signed up in? So if we think 2 other people have already signed up, we PM you a 3?

That's it exactly.

Please note that the rules outline a very specific format for submissions! If the first line of your post does not read:

Guess the Number: #

it will be ignored.

Bold, yes. It makes it easier to find valid submissions while scanning down my PMs, especially with the other game submissions in there.

Not that you've tried to submit anything previously... >_>

Fun little psychological game.

You want to wait (to score more points), but not too long (you score no points).

But if you don't guess the right number you score no points, right?
