Assassins 2.0

Postby orangedragonfire » Thu Apr 12, 2012 10:34 pm UTC

Adapted from this thread.
Also view the wikipedia page for more general information on the game.

Assassin is a game in which you attempt to eliminate everybody else until you are the only one left... but be careful, others are out after you, too.
Sign-up is done via PM to me. After the sign-up closes, you will be sent the name of another player - that is your Target. You eliminate your target by sandwiching one post of your target. Upon doing so, send me a PM with a link to the targets post. You will then receive a new target. If you are eliminated, you drop out of the game. But don't worry - there might be further rounds. Last Man Standing Wins.

Rules:
1. Sign up by PMing me ONLY. DO NOT mention your participation within this thread. Sign-up will last 48 hours from this post or until I say that it has stopped.
2. I will assign you a target.
3. You must sandwich the post of your victim and send me a PM with the link proving it.
4. A sandwich is when Player A posts, then Player B, followed again by Player A (ABA). In this situation, A would have eliminated B. No other people may post between those posts.
5. Double posting, etc., will not save you from a sandwich -- ABBA will result in B's elimination by A.
6. The post starting the sandwich must be made AFTER I announce the game is officially starting.
7. You yourself will be hunted by another player.
8. When you successfully assassinate someone, you will then be given their target to go and get.
9. You win if you are the only player left.
10. You are not allowed to mention the name of your target to anyone, because you don't know who is playing.
11. You are not allowed to mention that you were playing and have been eliminated.
12. To keep a minimum of activity, everybody who is playing is required to post at least once per day in each of the following threads: The "Thread Necromancy" Game , Count to a Million and Longest Time As Last Post. These threads are chosen because you don't need to have any intelligent content in your posts to post there.
13. Have fun ;)

There is still room for more people here. If you haven't signed up yet, don't be shy! We only have n people so far, and as you all understand that would be a quite short round...

Note that in order for an assassination to count, you need to send me a PM.

And that's it. All but one have been assassinated, matt96 is the winner. Everyone is now allowed to post in this thread and talk about the game if they so chose.

Yeah... there were originally four players. Here are all assassinations, in order:

1. matt kills Kyreles
2. matt kills Adam
3. matt kills tim

I think I kind of decimated everyone else, kyreles was actually hardest to get, after that, I managed Adam using the post I eliminated Kyreles with as the first post of that elimination, and by the time I got t1mm as a target, I got him in another thread.

Yeah, I kept you as a safe spot to post after this game started, because I had you as target.. But never actually got to kill you. Meh, grats and all that.

Thank you, I actually used the same strategy you did, using Kyreles and Orangedragonfire as safe spots to post, and I was just lucky that Kyreles posted after me in the longest time as last post thread (not the weekly edition) and after I go Kyreles, Adam posted after me, so I basically got 2 for the price of one, If it weren't for me getting you in the count to a million thread viewtopic.php?f=14&t=32328&p=2978564#p2978561
I would have tried to get you by accusing you in the Werewolves mafia game when I saw you online, trying to get you to post after me, but it would have backfired if you posted before I tried to get you.

Anyone interested in another round of this, send my a PM. I won't start one unless I get at least four people who are interested.
