Essentially like my other main thread here, I don't actually consider this a [i]spam[/i] thread but rather a [i]game[/i] thread, so keep this in mind. Also like the last game, there's a possibility you guys already have this somewhere, but I'm not browsing all around the site to find out. If anyone on the staff happens to see this topic - and thinks there's a more appropriate section of the site for it, such as the off-topic discussion area or something - feel free to move it there and let me know, assuming threads can even be moved (though considering no one ended up doing so, I assume this is the best place).

I'd like to think that I [i]don't[/i] need to explain what this game is, but - for those who don't know - the basic idea is that you have to guess a word or sentence that'll be represented by a row of dashes. In most variants, things like names, places, brands, et cetera, often aren't allowed, but I'll be allowing them if someone requests them, since we'll be using a few 'house rules' anyway. You basically guess the word by guessing letters, and each time you get a letter right it gets put into all the places where appropriate, but if you get a letter wrong then part of the 'hangman' diagram is added, and once this diagram is completed you lose the game. At any point, players are allowed to guess what the whole world is, but they're penalized if they get it wrong.

I haven't decided how I'll represent the diagram yet, or if I'll just give you a certain number of guesses before you lose. I'm open to suggestions for anyone who has a way to make this more interesting. Also, I've yet to actually decide how many times people have to guess a letter/number wrong before they lose, and I haven't decided if it'll be different depending on how difficult the word/sentence is. We'll see, I guess. I've also considered the possibility that there'd be a limited number of guesses (right or wrong) until the players lose, but I'm not doing it yet -- this could become a new rule if things seem too easy.

Assuming we get enough interest, I might add this to my signature like I did with the murderer game I put up. If not, I'll just ignore it. There might not be a need for me to put it into my signature though, since - unlike the murderer game - I likely won't be hosting most of the rounds in this.

House rules we'll be going with for the game are as follows:

[list]
[*] No limit to how many players can take part, so - unlike the murderer game - you don't need to 'join' before you start playing. You're allowed to take as many shots at it as you like (unless you go over the maximum wrong guesses), so don't feel like you have to wait for someone else.
[*] If someone tries to guess the whole word/sentence and gets it wrong, they're eliminated and can't participate until the round ends. It also contributes a point to the total number of 'wrong guesses' before the players lose the game entirely.
[*] The idea I have in my head so far is that if someone guesses the word/sentence correctly, they actually get to host the next round, but do keep in mind that I'll eliminate a host who goes inactive (I'll just outright end their game).
[*] Players who use a word that's already been used before (whether right or wrong) get eliminated for the round and can't participate.
[*] You should use the [ @Mention ] feature each time you guess, so the host can actually tell you if you're right/wrong without having to constantly monitor the thread.[/list]
