an idea for a game that probably wouldn't work

colon_closed_bracket [Edit] [Delete] 16:34, 20 July '11

DiS thread cricket.

The rules:

each DiSer has, say, 10 wickets (like in cricket) - to be selected over the course of a week (Monday to Sunday, to give weekenders / nightshifters a chance). When a thread is posted, you have a chance to select whether you want that thread in your "team" - first person to reply "cricket" effectively bagsies / shotguns that thread for their own. You get one run for every reply.

Total "runs" are counted at the beginning of the following week) - we'd probably have to rely on each DiSer to count their own runs. Obvs it's massively open to cheating but hey. don't cheat.

All threads (inc. music board threads and morning / countdown to hometime threads) are open to selection, and you can select your own threads if you like.

prizes to be won.

terrible idea? probably.
