Instructions: I have heard of the games before, wolves and sheep. They didn't seem much fun. This time, it is just a game and perhaps something much quicker. How does this sound—I've picked four teams to be my special foxes. It is their job to work together and stay hidden. The rest of you against them (do I have to call you anything, since you're just normal?) will try to find them within the next three hours.

But to make things more fair, there will be a clue. You see all the teams arranged just so? In each row and each column, there will be only one fox team. That helps, doesn't it? I think it should.

When your team thinks it knows who's a fox, place a vote on them. You have one vote per team, per row. If you have not voted when time runs out, then I won't be able to score you for whether you were right or not...

Foxes will receive points for every team who doesn't vote for them and a large bonus if no fox teams are considered the most suspicious, so it's to their benefit to work together.

The rest of you will get points for guessing right and a large bonus if you get all four teams right.

On the other hand...

There might be some bonuses for other things as well—but it's more fun if you don't know everything, right?

It is a game, so it should be fun.

A little, but it was kind of fun too. Just strange. And embarrassing.

I never thought I'd hear fun and embarrassing in the same sentence when it was coming from you.

[personal profile] appleofhiseye 2012-10-21 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
Sometimes embarrassing things are okay.

Not all the time, obviously!

But you're distracting me. We're supposed to play the game. Probably.

[personal profile] blackjacked 2012-10-21 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
Probably.

Are you guys foxes?

Mm, I wonder...I don't think so. And you?

[personal profile] blackjacked 2012-10-21 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
Definitely not.

Your headband really does look silly.

[personal profile] blackjacked 2012-10-21 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
. . . it does not!

[personal profile] appleofhiseye 2012-10-21 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure you'd look much better without it on.
blackjacked: (idk what the eff you are talking about)

[personal profile] blackjacked 2012-10-21 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
You've been talking to Dragonfly too much lately.
appleofhiseye: (Fenugreek)

[personal profile] appleofhiseye 2012-10-21 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
Even if I have, I really think that. Or are you hiding your fox ears under it?
blackjacked: (Yeah totally not safe)

[personal profile] blackjacked 2012-10-21 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
Or maybe you're hiding some underneath your hair.

There's nowhere to hide anything in my hair.

It could be a pretty smart illusion.

No, I'm not the magician between the two of us.
