Short week to start here. Just three events. Have fun
Thursday UPDATE: To encourage signups, the cost of participating in the Water Triathlon has been reduced by one.
Event #3: Rock Paper Scissors Tournament
Starts on Sunday/Costs 1 TP to compete/Only 8 can compete
This is a basic tournament. Olympians will be split into pairs and compete in games. The winners of each game will move on and the losers will not.
Only eight of our Olympians may join this event. Any member who does not compete in the water triathlon will have preference when competing in this event. Competing in this event takes 1 TP. To sign up, make a comment to this post of SIGN UP: RPS by 12:00 AM on Sunday. Each Olympian may only sign up once. The event will start and take place then.(Or as soon thereafter as someone can complete the event.) If fewer than 8 Olympians sign up, the remaining spots will be filled with copies of the coach, baring the coach’s arributes. If one of these copies wins a medal, the Blognomic team receives the medal.
The outcome of Games are determined as follows:
Each contestant makes a wits roll. If the result of the roll is more than twice the result of the other wits roll, the Olympian who rolled the higher wits roll has dominated their competition and wins the game. If not, roll a DICE2 to determine the winner of the game. A one means that the Olympian who’s name appears first in Alphabetical Order wins and a two means the other Olympian wins. The winner of the game advanced to the next game. The winner of game 17 receives a Gold Medal; the loser of game 17 a Silver Medal, and the winner of Game 18 a Bronze Medal. The results of each game are kept for history’s sake on the events page of the wiki.
The structure of games is as follows. The first Olympian to join will compete in game one, the second in game 2, etc…

There’s an idea for an Event up on my User talk page. I’ll be putting any other ideas for events that I may think of there, too, even if I haven’t worked out all the details.
The RPS Event listed there is a simple Event that I think would serve rather well as one of the first Events, either exactly as it is or slightly tweaked.
