View Full Version : Challenge #4: Rhyme & Crime

Today's challenge is different altogether.

The rules are simple:

1. From 12 noon today through 12 midnight tonight, eastern time, each survivor must post a minimum of 10 non-spamming posts. (Posts must stay on topic of thread in which they are in)

2. All posts from 12-12 (minimum of 10 posts) must consist of a 2-line rhyme. Even if you post more than 10 posts during that time, they ALL must rhyme!

Example of a post in a thread about Peerless Price:

<i>I hope we trade Price,<br>I wouldn't think twice.</i>

I'm not going to get too technical on verse, etc., but the last words in each line MUST rhyme. No loose rhymes like trying to rhyme the words "olive" and "believe". The words must at least sound alike. :rolleyes:

3. You may not start any new threads during that time, rather you MUST only reply to threads, and again, stay on topic with your rhyme!

4. You may not post back-to-back posts in the same thread.

5. NO EDITING YOUR POSTS! If you see someone has edited their post, forward it to me using that same button, and I'll count a point against them. Double check each post BEFORE you post it!

6. Then it's up to your team to report the RHYME CRIME if you see one. Your team must not only post a minimum of 10 posts each, but you must also browse the forums and report any posts from the other team that do not abide by the above rules. When you find offending posts from the other team, please use the http://www.billsfanzone.com/images/forwardpost.gif button on that post and forward it to me by the midnight deadline.

<b>How does your team win?</b> I have a point system that I will follow.
<blockquote>
- Forwarded non-rhyming or incorrect/off topic rhyming post - the offending team will gain 1 point.

- Failure to post at least 10 posts - the offending team will gain 1 point per missing post.
</blockquote>

Whichever team has the most points LOSES.

All forwarded posts will be judged by ME and ME alone. I am the ultimate power and have all reigning authority.

If both teams are tied, or there are NO offending posts forwarded to me, BOTH teams will vote someone off the island.


IMPORTANT: You MAY NOT log in as anyone other than yourself to accomplish this task (ex. player #1 may not log in as player #6 and post for them). I can see when you do that. You're on your honor, but I will be checking.

Mods and admins MAY NOT edit your teammates or the other teams' posts!

Failure to comply with the rules may result in your team's IMMEDIATE disqualification.

Good luck!

PS - posts in your private forum do not count towards your minimum 10 posts and you do not have to rhyme in your private forums.

Also, any questions you have on this thread ONLY do not have to rhyme. They also do not count against your 10.

No none of the posts in the survivor forum count.

NEW RULE: All your posts must rhyme, but they MUST be in either the Bills, Sabres, or TZ forum to count towards your 10...

so if you post more than 10, say like 25, all 25 must rhyme?

Do we have to rhyme in the entire post? Can we start with a 2 line rhyme, then stop rhyming?

good question EE. Or can we post and then end with a 2 line ryhme? Or is it ONLY rhyming all the time?

All of this rhyming is incredibly boring

how do we forward, report this post to a mod?

lordofgun
02-26-2003, 12:34 PM
The posts should contain ONLY a rhyme. NOTHING MORE! All have been forgiven before now that included anything other than a rhyme. From now on, keep it 2 lines only!

Also, please type it on two seperate lines, not just one!

Starting at 1:30, these two rules will be enforced!

GUNZ, I told you how to forward a post in the instructions. :D

Hey Log..

I finished with my 10 min.. so what do I do now? Do I forward all of my rhyming posts to you or do you look at them anyway..

And are you going to make a list of those who have finished the task..?

lordofgun
02-26-2003, 01:15 PM
I'll chedk at midnight to make sure everyone has 10. Don't forward your own posts to me. The other tribe is supposed to catch you NOT rhyming correctly, then forward that offending post to me..

This sure explains a lot of the weird posts I have seen lately. At first I thought some of Wys wing sauce might of been spiked but now I see the reason for the madness
