YoungWillz 21,060 Posted January 9, 2020 With only Emperor Akihito not picked by anyone, he is the sole designated survivor by acclaim. Quite a few uniques mainly restricted to a few teams. Bookie's favourite is Daniel arap Moi appearing on all teams and jokered by 4. Assuming I have understood paddyfool's system, the starting position for each player is as follows: dean1991 -13 Buffalo Phil -15 Grim Up North -16 nantonian2013 -16 Skinny Kiltrunner -16 DeathClock -17 paddyfool -17 Sir Creep -17 Zeph -18 Annami -19 Bibliogryphon -19 Great Uncle Bulgaria -19 LizLemon -19 RadGuy -19 Banana -20 Book -20 Clorox Bleachman -20 gcreptile -20 Deathray -21 Etushispushingupdaisies -21 Newjack -21 Joey Russ -21 The Quim Reaper -21 chilean way -22 ThereWillBeDeaths -22 Torva Messor -22 Captain Chorizo -23 msc -23 The Old Crem -23 theoldlady -25 And now we await the hits (if any). 2 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paddyfool 379 Posted January 22, 2020 Generally speaking, a hit should mean a score increases by 2 points (the difference between -1 and +1). Before you adjust for other bonuses and penalties, that is. Also, did anyone else leave Terry Jones off partly because they didn't want him to die? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Genfærd 452 Posted January 22, 2020 Just for the sake of it - my username is spelt wrong in the table. And, yeah @paddyfool, i almost left him out due to that reason, but figured his time was up soonish. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paddyfool 379 Posted February 4, 2020 Scores are a little off again. Should be a +4 change for the non-joker moi entries (going from -2 to +2) and +8 for the joker moi entries (going from -4 to +4). I should probably have tweaked the joker rule, but it is what it is. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Right, I'm lost. The scoring baffles. Going to get even more baffling when folks start hitting 3 hits - they are supposed to get +1 for every third hit, I assume that doesn't actually mean +2? Gawd, I'm sure this worked in paddyfool's head. I'm going to have to have a bit more direction on the scoring so keep me right. Edit: Plus I was rushing going to the dentist - takes ages this does.

The third hits only give one extra point, unless the third hit is a joker, since you're going from 0 to +1, rather than -1 to +1. So often a total of 3 points on a third hit (from -1 to +2), or something similar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well I can't change the rules now, lol, all bonuses doubled on Joker. I think the issue for me is it is front loaded. If everyone started at 0 then that's easier to commence, and at the end, in comes all the bad news revamping the entire list. Which would be hilarious.
