Liar Game Event

• Volcarost wrote on 2011-11-20 22:53
  My name is Volcarost and I wish to take some of the most interesting and active Nation users to participate in a game to win lots of Nation gold, while risking some at the same time. To sign up, you will simply send me 1,000 Nation gold. I will keep this for the time being (if any moderator wants to, they could watch over it so people feel safer with the game). You will participate in games involving trust and deceit to win. In the end you could gain gold, or lose gold. This is, the Liar Game. As the games go on, so does the wager. So to start out we will start small so you get used to it. But afterwards.
  
  Note: I am a registered user on another account, this account is for the sole purpose of this game.
  
  Contestants:
  
  Kueh (1,050)
  Protoman206 (1,050)
  VorpalAvian (1,050)
  Hanna (1,050)
  Chockeh (1,050)
  Psyal (750)
  
  Friend or Foe
  ~~~~~~~~
  
  You will each be paired up with another player. You get the option to say either "friend" or "foe". If they both say friend, they are both safe. If they both say foe, then they must each give 50 gold to each player who is safe. However, if one says friend and one says foe, the one who said friend must pay 50 gold to each safe player. Remember, the stakes in gold aren't too high, but in trust they're very high. We will do five rounds of this. Good luck.
  
  Please submit your submission (either friend or foe) by either Friday or Saturday. All decisions will be public, so speak to who you're paired up with to make the best choice. If you are in red, your partner said foe. If you're in green, they said friend.
  
  First Pairings
  ~~~~~~~~
  
  Kueh and Protoman206
  
  VorpalAvian and Hanna
  
  Chockeh and Psyal
  
  Lyre and VorpalAvian must give each player 50 gold. So they each lose 200 while everyone else gains 100.
  
  Second Pairings
  ~~~~~~~~~~
  
  Kueh and VorpalAvian
  
  Protoman206 and Chockeh
  
  Hanna and Psyal
  
  Protoman206, Chockeh, Hanna and Psyal must give up 100 gold each, giving 50 to Kueh and VorpalAvian each.
  
  Third Pairings
  ~~~~~~~~~
  
  Kueh and Hanna
  
  Protoman206 and Psyal
  
  VorpalAvian and Chockeh
  
  And so, Psyal loses 250 gold, all because of Proto.
  
  Fourth Pairings
  ~~~~~~~~~
  
  Kueh and Chockeh
  
  Protoman206 and Hanna
  
  VorpalAvian and Psyal

  I would Proto, but I need some kind of risk here, right?

  I think you might have to actually build up trust within the community first, or instead of sending the gold to you have the participants send it to an admin. I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not going to give 5k gold to someone who just joined.

  I'm fairly certain, considering matching IP addresses, that this account is Loopulse's, and this is his fake account to do whatever he was talking about in this thread, though I was also thinking he was talking about a poker game or something.

  Ah ok, I thought he was talking about a poker game as well.
• Volcarost wrote on 2011-11-21 00:32
  Yup, this is Loopulse. The games won't be poker, but kind of like it. With challenges pitting each other against one another forcing them to lie, deceive and cheat each other out of their gold! You can ask questions before registering though.

  Actually, I am not a new user. This is simply the dealer account so I don't end up spending any of the gold for my own personal use. I'm the person who asks about gambling on the Nation.

  
  
  Alrighty, you should probably make it clearer that you're NOT some random who just joined and is just trying to get money in your first post.

  Sure, since it's the first round I want people to get used to it. How about a mere 1,000?

  Good idea.

  i'm not seeing the appeal of this game or why you felt the need to create a new account for this when you already have one ಠ__ಠ
  also i think even 1k is steep, at least for us less frequent posters o_o
• Volcarost wrote on 2011-11-21 00:53
  Well Tink, in the real one it's 100,000,000 ¥ which is $1,000,000 so I made it 1,000 Nation Gold to get us started, keeping it cheap for now. But hey, if it doesn't appeal to you then that's fine.

  He made a new account in order to ensure that the players gold would not accidentally be spent on his own account.
