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.

ETA: Absent teams MAY be foxes, or may not be.))

I'm just an innocent amnesiac, if you want to know something you have to ask me directly.
forthreehestrays: (who me couldn't be)

[personal profile] forthreehestrays 2012-10-21 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm? But you were the one who started asking questions.
existentiallychallenged: (boobonic plague)

[personal profile] existentiallychallenged 2012-10-21 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
I'm done. They're off the record!!
forthreehestrays: (:3c)

[personal profile] forthreehestrays 2012-10-21 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
Are you sure? I wouldn't want you to lose any sleep over worrying for me.
existentiallychallenged: (the cat on the couch thinks you're crazy)

[personal profile] existentiallychallenged 2012-10-21 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
Trust me, I won't think of you at all!
forthreehestrays: (fascinating isn't it?)

[personal profile] forthreehestrays 2012-10-21 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
Not even a little?
forthreehestrays: (:3c)

[personal profile] forthreehestrays 2012-10-21 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
Naturally one wishes for an attentive superior to take care of them.
existentiallychallenged: (you are conceited. cat attacks you)

[personal profile] existentiallychallenged 2012-10-21 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
You just said you're fine even if I don't!
forthreehestrays: (popping in)

[personal profile] forthreehestrays 2012-10-21 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Well, yes. But that doesn't mean I can't dream!
existentiallychallenged: (The dog kicked the little girl.)

[personal profile] existentiallychallenged 2012-10-21 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
If I feel the need to take care of someone, I'll come and dote on you first.
forthreehestrays: (literal /chinhands)

[personal profile] forthreehestrays 2012-10-21 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, really? I feel so honored.
existentiallychallenged: (anything you can do I can do better)

[personal profile] existentiallychallenged 2012-10-21 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
As you should be!
