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.

I guess since she's pretty ...
wouldntkilladragon: (....huh)

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-21 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
What does that have to do with it?
performing: (yes that makes perfect sense)

[personal profile] performing 2012-10-21 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
Master used to say pretty people needed less tact.

I don't know, but it worked for him.
wouldntkilladragon: (Well maybe if we....)

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-21 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
He was pretty then?
performing: (yes that makes perfect sense)

[personal profile] performing 2012-10-21 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
Women sure thought so.
performing: (could've been worse)

[shrugs] Other than that, I've got nothing.
wouldntkilladragon: (....huh)

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-21 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Well, she is also a fox.
performing: (oh.  me?)

[personal profile] performing 2012-10-21 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
But right now she's a lady.
wouldntkilladragon: (Read up)

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-21 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, but sometimes she's a fox.
performing: (yes that makes perfect sense)

[personal profile] performing 2012-10-21 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Which is probably half the point of her game metaphor ...
performing: (yyyyyyeahno)

[personal profile] performing 2012-10-21 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
I think I'm bad at this.

I'd prefer a good old-fashioned game of cards, myself.
wouldntkilladragon: (Well uh this is awkward)

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-21 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
Haven't ever really played cards.
wouldntkilladragon: (Welp!)

I'll teach you later, if you want.
wouldntkilladragon: (Sup)

Really?

Okay.
