Consortium - a Forum Game - Voting Time

[Ravonium]

when shall we start?
We have 9.
Shall we have a test run?

Yes, but one of the players who signed up last year isn't that active anymore.

Although, even then, we still have enough players to start it.

ROUND ONE
Instructions:
Each of you now have 50 Votes to use as you see fit. Every Round, you must PM me a number of Votes for a particular target. The one with the highest Votals is eliminated. Every Round will last 60 hours. You may use any form of communication in or out of this thread to discuss your voting strategy and once you do, PM it to me by putting your vote in the title for easier reading.
Remember: Votes do NOT replenish every round. So choose wisely and save if you must. I will not reveal how many Votals each member has every round. But rather, I will only reveal the total Votals remaining each round.

It is possible to Vote for multiple people in one PM but since only 1 gets eliminated every Round, there is no need to unless you have a strategy (like say, showing an ally your good faith).


Now Go! And Good Luck!

If it isn't obvious yet, you can choose to vote nobody for nothing. BUT if everyone does that in a round, everyone's votals decrease by 5. You still have to submit a PM telling me you did not vote. If you don't even submit a PM though, your votals and only your votals gets decreased by 10.

May I ask a few questions, Soup.
1. Is it at the end of every round, only the "remaining votes" and "the guy who is eliminated" are revealed?
2. There will be no revealing as to "who voted who" and "how many votes the eliminated guy gets"?
3. The players' choice will be kept confidential by the players themselves and the administrator alike?
4. So any of us exposing his/her choice by posting here will be regarded as intentional strategy right?

Thanks

1. How many votes each player got will be shown, as well as the remaining votes.
2. There will be no "who voted who" thing to add mystery into the game, which can help build trust. We will reveal how many votes each person got.
3. The choice who you vote for will be kept secret, unless you want to reveal/expose yourself.
4. Yes.

[Soopairik]

Still waiting on 4 others...

[Halichoeres]

Did everyone vote?

Did everyone vote?

It souldn't matter, round 2 should begin anyway, right?

It should, but only 6 have voted. So I'm trying to wait it out 1-2 more days for more responses before we continue, if that's fine with the rest of you.

[acro-man]

Can't wait to see my poor victim writhe in pain and sorrow

Wait.... who did I vote for? 

[Soopairik]

Alright I'm getting rather tired of people not voting, but since majority has voted, let's just move on to ROUND TWO.
3 people chose not to vote - GasMaskMax, CrypticPrism, and raptor64870. For this, their votals has gone down from 50 to 40.

Now it's time to see who gets eliminated!
Here is everyone with 0 votes...
-Cloud the Dinosaur King
-Ravonium
-Halichoeres

The rest of you though, all got at least 10 votes.
raptor69870, Acro man, and GasMask each only got 10 votes.

This leaves Neosodon, CrypticPrism, and Dinotoyblog...
Neosdon got 15.

Which leaves Cryptic and Dinotoyblog... and Dinotoyblog is
...
not eliminated. With 15 votes too.
Crpytic is eliminated with 30.

Votals left - 330
Votals before Round 1 - 450

ROUND 2 STARTS NOW

Did the game die? I think we just have to push on with those participating and see how it goes. Others may join in future games when they see how it works...

Far from dead, man.
People are on a killing spree!!!
6 people giving out 120 votes! And this is just round 1.
This is a silent war!!!

[acro-man]

I see.
This is your trick, your decoy, your subtle canny conspiracy.
You tried to fool us by pretending you are not interested and innocent but you are behind it all.

By exposing too much of myself I can't survive to the end for sure.
But I wish you die before me.

20 VOTES ON DINOTOYFORUM!!!
