Object of the game: Bid on auctions with Rocks, Scissors, and Papers. Win VPs to avoid being eliminated at critical points. Be the last person standing at the end of the 15th round to win!
Bid as many as you want - and can afford - but don't bid different types at once.
Fifteen auctions total (with three special shopping rounds mixed in). You'll get some Rocks, Papers, and Scissors to start with, and you can earn coins to buy more during the shopping rounds. There'll be some randomness here, but you're guaranteed to get at least some of each.
If an auction has bids for all three types, the smallest bids get axed and lose. Repeat until there aren't three types any more.
Next: Rock beats Scissors; Scissors beats Paper; Paper beats Rock. Lots of Scissors vs. a single Rock? The Rock still wins.
Finally: more Rocks beat fewer Rocks. Ditto for Paper and Scissors.
If this doesn't result in a clear winner, it's a tie and no one wins. The last group eliminated earns the draw; everyone else loses.
Winner loses their bid and gains the prize.
Ties and losers keep their bids; ties get a small consolation prize. (+1 coin.)
Each auction has multiple lots. Bid on only one lot. There'll be one fewer lot than there are players.
Each lot has VPs and coins, rolled randomly.
If a lot gets passed up, I'll add some goodies to it (+2 VP, +2 coins). It'll stick around for the next auction.
VPs control eliminations. In last place when the 5th auction ends? You're out. Not in the top three after the 10th auction? Goodbye.
- If there's a tie, we'll delay the elimination by one round. If you weren't on the block before, you'll be safe. Note - there are tiebreaking items out there.
- If the elimination is a foregone conclusion - if a player can't survive even with everyone actively conspiring to make sure they do - they get axed early.
- We'll reset the VPs at the end of the elimination rounds. (This will happen even if the elimination is delayed.)
Shopping:
- Shopping rounds happen just before elimination rounds; they don't count as regular rounds.
- Players can spend coins to buy more throws and/or bid on special items.
- There will always be a MacGuffin up for grabs. These break ties - and if one player collects all three,everyone else just loses.
All information is public (coins, VPs, items, stocks of Rocks / Papers / Scissors.) Turns are submitted via PM.
Deadlines: 47.5 hours. One 24-hour extension per player; players can earn more by submitting moves early.Last edited by Farren on Mon Jan 02, 2023 7:37 pm, edited 2 times in total.Mish-Mash Janitor

At the start of the game: each player will receive 15 throws. Guaranteed minimum of three of each type; the remaining ones will be randomly chosen.
At the start of Auction 6: each player still alive will receive another 15 throws, with the same guaranteed minimum.
During Auctions 1-5, assuming 5 players:
1 lot will have 1d4+4 VPs, 1d4 coins.
1 lot will have 1d6+4 VPs, 1d6 coins.
1 lot will have 1d8+4 VPs, 1d8 coins.
1 lot will have 1d6 VPs, 2d6 coins.
The first lots will be rolled at the start of the first auction, and so on and so forth.
Lots that are not claimed will receive +1 VP and +1 coin for each round they remain unclaimed.
During Auctions 6-10, all auction prizes will double in value; the 1d4+4 lot will be removed.
If anyone has strong feelings about balance or the numbers, please make suggestions before the game starts - once the game starts, the numbers will be locked in. If we get more players, I'll add more lots.Last edited by Farren on Tue Oct 18, 2022 5:39 am, edited 2 times in total.Mish-Mash Janitor

Any chance you would reconsider extensions because that really helped me a lot in Splendor?**********We just need to tread carefully because if you slip up around her as scum she notices and will tear your spine out and slap you to death with it.

My goal for this game is to have it wrapped up by US Thanksgiving, which falls on November 24th this year. So that means ending the game no later than November 23rd.
There's a potential for 15 rounds (ten regular auctions plus a best-of-five final). With each round having a 48 hour deadline and a start date of October 19th*, that wraps things up on November 18th.
Problem is, I also have to allow time for elimination tie-breakers. Add two of those and now we're looking at November 22nd. Throw in one 24-hour extension per player and now we're looking at November 26th - which is too late.
I'll be sending players PMs at the start of each round. I'm also happy to send out PMs at the 24-hours-left point (for players who request it and haven't submitted anything yet). But this time around, I can't allow for extensions without potentially compromising the game's overall deadline.
Players may send me conditional moves for a future round if they think they might miss a specific deadline.
Players may also send me a default move as an insurance policy against missing deadlines in general.
Please let me know if anyone would like more details about these.
* - technically, the day before by my time zone. But it'll be late in the evening.Mish-Mash Janitor

Random draws will be simulated as if they came from a bag. Each player is drawing six from the bag. To allow for some variance, I'm going to put nine throws per player (three of each type) and do up a random draw via random.org to decide who gets what.
1-15: Rock
16-30: Paper
31-45: Scissors
Charles510 gets the first set of six.
Nancy Drew 39 gets the second set of six.
Aisa gets the third set of six.
Not Known 15 gets the fourth set of six.
StrangerCoug gets the fifth set of six.
When it comes time for the second set of draws, we'll do it the same way, except that we'll leave the leftovers from Round 1 in the bag. I'll also put spent bids back into the bag.
Code: Select all
1 41 20 11 29 19 > Charles510 24 37 27 16 18 7 > Nancy Drew 39 36 28 2 8 26 4 > Aisa 12 39 14 45 33 25 > Not Known 15 22 42 15 5 35 32 > StrangerCoug 3 21 23 43 44 13 > Back to the Bag 31 17 10 6 34 30 > Back to the Bag 40 38 9 > Back to the Bag
Charles gets: Rock, Scissors, Paper, Rock, Paper, Paper.
Nancy Drew 39 gets: Paper, Scissors, Paper, Paper, Paper, Rock.
Aisa gets: Scissors, Paper, Rock, Rock, Paper, Rock
Not Known 15 gets: Rock, Scissors, Rock, Scissors, Scissors, Paper
StrangerCoug gets: Paper, Scissors, Rock, Rock, Scissors, Scissors.
