Hints (given out on May 5th, 2012 - note that a few of these have been guessed by now):

- 4 rules have to do with which letters you can begin and/or end your posts with

- 1 rule has to do with the number of words in your posts

- 3 rules have to do with punctuation

- 2 rules have to do with a letter you must start a word with

- 1 rule has to do with a theme at least one word in your posts must follow

- 1 rule forces someone to break a habit they're usually rather picky about

-1 rule has to do with the sentences/phrases in a post



Well, after all this time, I'm finally making a game! It's called The Rule Game, and here's how it works:

Everyone will be given a rule that affects how they post. The rule could be a theme your posts must have, or could have to do with punctuation or the letters and words themselves. Whenever you post in this thread, you have to follow your rule. The point is to guess other people's rules. If you get one right, you get a point.

For example:


Rule:
Your posts may only have 5 words in them. No more, no less.

Poster 1: I really like Fairy Tail.

And the rest of that person's posts would only have 5 words in them. If another player catches on, they would take a guess at Poster 1's rule. To guess someone's rule, you need to quote their last post.

Like so:

Quote

I really like Fairy Tail.

Poster 2: Your rule is that your posts can only have 5 words in them!

Me: Correct! You get a point!

I will record the points in this post. You can guess at any time, and I (or the person with that rule) will tell you if you're right. If you're wrong, you have to put up one normal post before you can guess again. ADDITION: You can guess multiple rules in one post, but however many you get wrong is how many times you have to put up a non-guessing post before guessing again. If a rule is particularly hard, I may give out hints at some point, but only I can do so! Ahem. Oh, and you can try to guess anyone's rule (except your own, of course :P). If your rule is guessed correctly, don't worry! I'll send you a new one. And you're welcome to come up with your own rule if you like, just send your idea to me privately and I'll tell you if you can use it. ^^

A few final things: You can only post here if I've given you a rule, or if you're expressing your interest in joining. You still have to follow your rule when guessing someone else's rule, but really, it's not that hard to do. Oh, and do try to post here fairly often. You can talk about anything and everything, just remember to follow your rule!

To play, just state your interest here and I'll send you a rule via PM. Once you get you rule, you can start posting according to it. The game has started, but anyone can join at any time!

Okay, sent out all the rules for your four! Judah and Vince are playing; they just PMed me. I updated the scoreboard with everyone who's playing, and every post made here by those four will now be according to their rule or guessing someone else's rule.

Anyone else who wants to join can jump in at any time. ^^ Just post your interest here or PM me.

@Vince - Well, at least you're following your rule. XD

But yes, if you guys are confused, you're welcome to ask me questions. Preferably in private, as we don't want anyone giving away their rules!

Remember, if you've gotten your rule and posted once in here according to it, you can start guessing. At this point, that would be...Anti, and Vince. XD

Oh, and there are a few rules that are pretty simple, to get you guys into the groove of things. If you're unsure, feel free to guess randomly, but know that you have to have a normal post in between guesses! ^^
