Rules
|
Simply put, this is played the same way as the TV show, The Weakest Link. If you are unfamiliar with the show, read on. |
|
The game takes place in the chat room. A date will be announced when the game will be held. Interested people must sign up ahead of time. There will be 8 people on a team and two alternates. The first 8 people to sign up will play. Should one of those 8 not make it, the first alternate will take their place. If two people do not show up, both alternates will play. If less than 8 people sign up, but more than 4, the game will proceed. |
|
The object of the game is to answer questions correctly. Money is accumulated by answering questions correctly consecutively. The more questions in a row you get correct, the higher the dollar amount. |
|
A team member can say "bank" prior to their question. All money accumulated up to that point will be safe and cannot be lost if a question is answered incorrectly. |
|
Each person will be asked three questions. Rounds do not have time limits, but each team member has 10 seconds to answer. A time limit must be imposed to prevent people from looking up the answers. Otherwise, people would take a couple minutes to answer. |
|
At the end of each round, the team will vote for the person they feel did not help the team earn money, at least that's the basic idea. Some vote purely out of spite regardless of how well another team member did. |
|
All disputes will be handled by the host as well as the scoring. There will be a pause after each round so that the dollar amounts can be added up. |
|
The final round will only have two contestants. There will be 5 questions asked to each one. The player who answers the most questions correctly wins. |
|
Each round will be started by the strongest link of the previous round. In the event of a tie in votes for weakest link, the strongest link will cast the deciding vote. They may change their original vote and vote for someone else. |
