Subject: The Weakest Link Game

Written By: nondiva234 on 12/21/05 at 9:08 pm

The season's too happy. Let's make it a little naughty by playing the Weakest Link.  ;) I'll need six players who are willing to be taunted and humiliated by me. This game is worth it, cause one of you guys will walk away with up to $75,000 (in cyber money, of course!). Anyone in?

By the way, here's the chain:

$12,500
$7,500
$5,000
$2,500
$1,000
$500
BANK

No way!  :o  I watched it a lot too, before I got readdicted to Wheel.

Let's see...I said I'd like to be on the team.

So we need five more participants now?

Yes, I really would like nine as a matter of fact, but I'll have to play safe, and do six.

Three people! Yaaay! I need at least two more. If I only get five, not a problem. I have a chain I can adapt to.

Okay, I'll attempt it, too. My mom and I use to stay up late watching reruns and I got fairly addicted to it..

Anyone interested? I've room for the most, two people. It'll be fun!

So we have not started yet?

Subject: Re: The Weakest Link Game

Written By: nondiva234 on 12/25/05 at 2:35 am

Nope. I need at least one more person to join in, and we'll be a-okay. C'mon folks, this is really fun! It's good for your brain (aren't I sounding like Mom  ;D )

Okay, I'm gonna start with four players playing with a five person chain. Since it's Christmas, I'll be Santa just this once and give you guys an automatic $15,000 to start with. Here's the chain:

$15,000
$5,000
$1,000
$500
$100
BANK

Some quick rules to go over before we start the game: THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO GOOGLING, OR USING A SEARCH ENGINE, OR WIKIPEDIA TO FIND AN ANSWER. Also, you MAY NOT PM people in or out of the game to ask answers. Lastly, please PM me with your banking strategy, as to avoid banking along with the ability to see the question:

You have four choices:
Bank every question
Bank every other question
Bank every third question
Not bank at all

I ask you guys to choose wisely, as if everyone were to pick the fourth choice, you'd end up with a lousy $15,000.

We will begin this game in several hours.

So who goes first? And what's the order that we play in?

Subject: Re: The Weakest Link Game

Written By: Philip Eno on 01/04/06 at 2:12 am

Where is the first question?

Subject: Re: The Weakest Link Game

Written By: nondiva234 on 01/08/06 at 2:45 am

Oh dammit, I've kinda left you guys in the dust here. Anyways, I was away for about two weeks because I moved and I didn't have time to set up Internet. And it was sorta down, so you've been confused for about two weeks. Anyways, I'm here, and to answer your questions, this is the order you guys are playing in:

Jeff
PE
tom
UV

The first question is not available because you guys need to PM me about your banking strategies. Refer to the previous post if you guys are confused about that. Hope that helps before you guys start the game.

I think I'll close the game for now, due to lack of interest.

Well, Philip...he hasn't been by in a while...and a year ago he said he was gonna close the game, due to lack of interest...but he didn't lock this thread. :-\\

He hasn't even asked the first question yet.

But as the only person to bank, I think you're a standout candidate to be voted the strongest link. Sure, there wasn't anything to bank, but that's just a technicality.

I think I'm going to PM him about this game. And by the way, the "Wheel" game that I intended to start has seemed to have faded away, since no one else has signed up to play. I thought it might be a nice idea to host a "Wheel" game...but due to my busy schedule right now, it's probably all for the better that it is on indefinite hiatus for now.
