:cucco:
0 points
Trophies: None

Current Game Symbols
:cucco: ;d :deadlink:

Objective: Catch pairs to win points! Collect 10 points to win the game! When you win, pick three (or four or five) new Game Symbols (like A, Q, and 4; or some emotes) and restart the game. You may then take one of the old Game Symbols as a trophy. You can list your trophies after your score, or in your signature, if you like.

Rules:
  • Start your post with one of the current Game Symbols. If you don't, you lose 1 point, but no one can score off that post.
  • Follow the special symbol with your score in the current game. If you don't list your score, it goes back to 0 points.
  • After the Game Symbol and your score, you may or may not explain why you're gaining a point, if you are. Feel free to quote any relevant posts.
  • After any such explanations, post any questions and concerns you may have about the game.
  • No double posting. If you double post, you lose 1 point.
  • You can have fewer than 0 points. So, if you lose lots of points -1, -2, and -3 are waiting for you!
Now, how do you get points? You score 1 point by matching two Game Symbols from specific previous posts (posts 2, 3, and 7 before yours). (Take your post number and subtract 2, 3, or 7) If you post at the same time as someone else, both trying to claim the same pair, whoever posted first gets 2 points, and whoever posted second loses 1 point. (Sorry!) You can claim your points late if you want, but it'll be too late after someone else wins!

Sound complicated? Here's an example!


#01 :cucco:

#02 :deadlink:

#03 ;d ; (1) cucco available

#04 ;d ; (2) deadlink and (1) cucco

#05 :cucco: ; (3) ;d and (2) deadlink

#06 ;d ; (4) ;d and (3) ;d SCORE!

#07 :cucco: ; (5) cucco and (4) ;d

#08 ;d ; (6) ;d and (5) cucco and (1) cucco SCORE!

#09 :deadlink: ; (7) cucco and (6) ;d and (2) deadlink

#10 and #11 will also score. SCORE!

So, if X is your post's number, you get to match the symbols from the posts numbered (X-2) and (X-3) and (X-7).

A tad complicated, but they do run in pairs. Meaning, if the same symbol is posted twice in a row, somebody will definitely get to score. Also, any time a pair shows up over a gap of 3 or 4 posts, someone will score. SCORE!

Note: If all three of your available posts match, you get 3 points.

(Oh noes, my example ran out of emoticons!)

(Quick question: You can't match the 2/3/7 ago posts with your current one, right? Just with each other?)

1 point (Woo!)

Yeah, your current post can't be used. In other words, you have only the three earlier posts from which to glean matches.
