Placing any one of our userbars, or posting a text link to this thread, will earn you 150 points and 100 points for your team. (Each Player Individually)

- I (or whoever runs this) sets players challenges, and they get points for doing them.

- People aren't on their own, they're on teams.

- Anyone can create their own team at any time, and the team will get a pre-set opening points balance of 1,000 points.

- Each team has a manager/leader sorting out what goes on. This will probably be whoever creates the team at first, but they can hand it down to another team member if they like.

- The manager needs to recruit other players to their team in order for the team to do well in challenges.

- "Recruiting" might be a bit like transfers in football - managers have control of their teams'
points and can use them like wages for players. Getting a player to your team gets you 100 points and your team 50 points.

- Teams can have as many players as they like but getting/keeping players comes at a price (See point above) - so it's not as easy as just rounding everyone up.

- Each challenge will have its own rules, but many of them will restrict the number of people who can play it from each team (e.g. it may only allow two team members to compete). For these challenges, teams will need to choose the required number of team members to play if they want to attempt the challenge. Players can volunteer to do challenges but the manager has to make a decision about who does it if too many/not enough people volunteer.

- When a player joins a team, a contract has to be arranged first. This should say how many points the team is going to give the player for joining them, how long the player joins the team for and how much the player's "wages" are - i.e. how much they are given every day/week/whatever they are at the club. These conditions aren't all essential to get a player to join a team, but it may help to convince them.

- "Pay" for managers is 10% of their team's value to them at the end of each week (i.e. at 23:59 on Saturdays)

- The "contract" is just text and should be posted in this thread. It needs to outline all the conditions on which the player is joining the team (wages etc.) and the player, manager of the team getting the player (and team that the player previously belonged to if they already have a team - they might end up getting some points out of the other team from this contract) all need to post and say they agree to the contract.

- If a player's contract runs out (e.g. the contract said they're joining a team for two weeks and that two weeks is up) the team and the player can both agree a new contract (this can be done before the time's up if they want, too). If the player's out of contract he or she can just leave.

- All discussions about contracts can be in public or private, as long as the contract is made public and agreed. "Discussions" can include saying you (if you're a player) need a club or your team (if you're a manager) needs players. I suppose you could mention about how many points you'd settle for, things like that.

- There might be a few different people (if more than one person wants to do it - I will when I can) who set challenges. How long they last and the points involved depend on what the challenge is, but basically they will all have a timescale and the winning teams/players will be awarded points. Maybe in some challenges the winning team gets half of the prize and the winning players personally get the other half split amongst them, things like that. If more than one person is doing challenges, then they will be allowed to do them whenever they like but ideally there should be some people checking what the challenges are before they're posted, just so they're fair, and also so that there aren't too many challenges going on at once. More than one challenge can be going on at the same time, though.

- An idea for these overlapping challenges is that some of them would come as part of a series, and there would be special rules about players taking part. For example, a series of four challenges takes place. One is Monday to Sunday, one is Monday to Thursday, one is Wednesday to Friday and the fourth is Thursday to Sunday. During this time, you'll need a team of three players, a team of four players, a team of two players, and a single player to do the other challenge. However, no player can take part in two challenges so you'll need ten people if you want to take part in all of them. If a series like this happens the details of all the challenges will be announced before the series starts, so you'll get enough time to plan who does what.

- If a team goes into negative points, they can hope to get out of it by earning points from challenges. However, if it gets to the point where it needs to pay its player(s) and it can’t afford to, the player(s) are allowed to leave straight away if they wish. If this starts to happen to a team it could be the case that all players leave…

- If that happens, the team might be left with just one manager and no players. In this case, it might be a good idea for the manager to leave the team too. If this happens, then the team no longer exists. They could always start again I guess.

- The winners in this game come in two different ways: there are the richest teams and the richest players. The amount the team has is whatever it starts with, plus whatever it earns from challenges, minus what it has to pay its players and other clubs to get their players. The players' points come only from what their teams give them (sorted out in contracts), as well as possibly what they get for winning challenges if players get a cut of it.

- If a player gets very rich, they can buy their way out of their team - something which might be agreed in the contract (e.g. it says the player can leave at any time if they pay the team 50 points.) If they leave and then don't have/want a team to be part of, they can start up their own with just their own wealth. I'm not sure whether they'd get the set amount of points a new team gets as well, but we can decide on that later.

Ok, if you're a manager, you'll need to agree with a contract, along with the player. Here is a blank template, which you can just fill in the gaps with. The manager then posts it in this thread, then the player must post, agreeing with the contract, and the player is now part of the team.

1. The following player: __________, who is part of the team __________, will join the team __________.
2. The player's current team will be given ___ points by the player's new team as part of the agreement.
3. The player will be paid ___ points by their new team as soon as they join.
4. The player will join the team from __th ________ to __th ________, a time period of __________.
5. During this time, the player will be paid ___ points per _day/week/month_ by their new team, a total (initial pay and pay during time at team) payment to the player of ____ points.
6. If the player wishes to leave this team at any time, they can do so by paying the team ___ points.

[Image: iconguide.png]

Red (challenge type)
decision - the challenge requires you to choose things.
game - the challenge is a game.
think - the challenge requires you think.
art - you have to make / draw something.

Orange (how points are awarded)
complicated - it will need to be explained in the post.
pie - the prize is split fairly between everyone who completes it (but this will probably include more than one person from a team)
podium - there is a set amount for each postion, e.g. 60% of the prize goes to 1st, the other 40% goes to 2nd.
winner - the best player/team gets the prize.

Yellow (team/player split)
These are all how much of the total prize the teams and players get. Both will either get 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% or 90%.

Green (total prize)
How much the total prize is in thousands (1k to 5k) and hundreds (from 200 - 1,000). You may need to use two of these. So if it's 1,600 you'll need 1k and then 600.

Blue (number of players)
The number of players you can have taking part on your team. Either 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or unlimited.

Purple (challenge requirement)
contest - you "win" by doing better than everyone else, although there may not only be one person who earns points.
race - you need to do something quickly to be the winner.
target - there are multiple winners, and they are all the players who reach a set target.

Black (challenge maker)
Whichever organiser did the challenge.

Re: The Challenging Game in which Forum Members Get into Teams and Play Challenges - Cave - 06-07-2008

Remember folks, I'm not starting a challenge until we have at least 3 teams.

So, be quick and start up your own team by posting a reply saying that you are, what your team name is, etc.

Be quick and build a strong team.

Re: The Challenging Game in which Forum Members Get into Teams and Play Challenges - Maddolis - 06-07-2008

This looks interesting and looks like a lot of work was put into it.
Hope it pays off.

Edit: Okay, I'll make a team.
Team name: (The) Purple Cobras.

Edit2: or "Peter's Angels"... darnit I can't make up my mind!

2. The player's current team will be given NA points by the player's new team as part of the agreement.
3. The player will be paid 50(?) points by their new team as soon as they join.

Re: The Challenging Game in which Forum Members Get into Teams and Play Challenges - Cave - 06-07-2008

Thanks Maddolis.

Remember, I'm looking for some teams to join before I officially begin a challenge.

Creating your own team couldn't be simpler; just post a reply stating the name of your team, and it'll be added!

The first 2 teams to register will get a bonus payment of 150 points.

For those of who don't understand this;

At any time during the week, I will post a challenge (online website games to reach a certain level etc.) for teams/team members to attempt. Members will then post proof here, and points will be added accordingly. The person/team with the most points at the end of each week wins a prize.

Re: The Challenging Game in which Forum Members Get into Teams and Play Challeng - FateTrip - 06-07-2008

How-To join a team.

The PLAYER that wishes to join a team, must post a reply, just stating which team they wish to join.

The MANAGER of that team then REPLIES, posting the CONTRACT for that player.

The player then replies again, AGREEING with that contract.

They're now part of the team.

IDmad, Aztec, FateTrip: all added.

More teams please!
