Hey guys. I got this from another forum but the OP on that site said I could use this idea. Enjoy!
RULES:
Each player starts off with 5 points. The game is open to anybody that wants to play. Every two hours you get one vote. A vote requires that you add one point to one player and subtract one point from another player. You can choose any reason you want to vote for or against a player. Skill, likability, value, etc. Add a plus (+) and (-) to the players you want to vote for and against in each vote respectively. Example:
Before vote:
Wake, Cameron [5]
Tannehill, Ryan [5]
Ochocinco, Chad [5]
After vote:
Wake, Cameron [6] +
Tannehill, Ryan [5]
Ochocinco, Chad [4] -
When a player's point total reaches 0 that player is eliminated. Eventually one player will have all the points, earning him the title of Dolphin Survivor Champion. You may also give a write up explaining why you voted the way you did. Non-voting posts to comment on a vote are welcomed and encouraged. The debate is half the fun. Just make sure and keep it fun and don't take it personal!
Some things to keep in mind when making each vote. Please follow these rules or the game can run astray really fast and make it difficult to get back on track.
1. Always quote the last vote in the thread to make your vote. If a player was eliminated in the previous vote, remove that player from your list. NOTE: Due to some technical difficulties with copying and pasting, quoting the most recent vote and removing the tags will work much better. In prior year games, players frequently disappeared from the list when copying posts instead of quoting.
2. Always check after you submit your vote to see if someone else snuck in a vote while you were in the process. If someone did, make sure to edit your vote accordingly. Otherwise the count will be off, and others will vote off your incorrect count. Voting quickly will make the chances of this less likely but it does happen a lot. If you notice the count is wrong, feel free to correct the count with your vote. This is the number one thing that will throw the count off.A good rule of thumb for every vote: Check to see who had the last vote before you add your vote. After you vote, make sure that vote was still the last vote.
3. Do not change format or order. The order used (except for coaches and owners) are the order they appear on the roster at miamidolphins.com. This year it is listed by last name first, and in alphabetical order. Changing the order of the list makes it difficult for me to verify the count and correct errors.
4. Make sure you only vote once every 2 hours. If you get caught voting sooner your vote will be discounted.
5. Whenever possible, add up the count to make sure it's still correct. (Correct count to come with official list).
6. Remember to remove the last voter's (+) or (-) and any other comments before making your vote.
7. Please do not bold or format player names. This makes the vote for the next player difficult, and in the past has resulted in names getting dropped from the list. Feel free to bold your (+) or (-) and any comments.
For all of the above votes, a player should be granted 3 minutes to realize their mistake and edit their vote. If the vote is not fixed in 3 minutes, the vote should be disregarded and play should continue as if the vote had never happened.
- If 1 player is determined to be voting from multiple accounts, any votes coming from the second account will be ignored.
No matter how hard we all try the vote will get screwed up at times. And that's ok. I greatly appreciate any and all help in keeping it correct. The help you all provide has kept this game running smoothly the past couple of years. Remember: At any time any player can submit a correct list, and it does not count as a vote.
Winning player will have 475 points.
It sounds really complicated, but it's super easy. You'll see after a few votes. Any questions can be posted in this thread.
