| - Each player starts with 1000 coins - Every round, you must PM me with the number of coins you wish to spend - The player who spends the lowest number of coins is out - The player who submits the second lowest will get those coins back - If a tie occurs for last place, the tied players will be asked to submit again - Deadlines will be 48 hours - If you miss a deadline, you will spend coins equal to whoever spent the most in that round, and receive a strike - If you receive 3 strikes, you're out - If you run out of coins and have to put some in, you're out - If you miss deadline, but you don't have the coins required to meet the highest bidder, you're out - Last man standing wins! The amount of coins you have will not be published, but the person with the second lowest will be announced, and the person with highest will be announced. Players: 1337ness_of_teh_n00b Cracked Atlas Orandulum** Krika Vorsprung** Mizicho** Beese* * = 1 Strike - Round 1 Results:
Mizicho wins the "Overkill" award for spending the most coins. Krika wins the "Lucky Bugger" award for spending the second lowest number of coins. Cracked Atlas wins the "Beat Over the Head" award for spending the lowest amount of coins, and is eliminated.
Vorsprung and Orandulum got one strike each.
- Round 2 Results:
Krika wins the "Overkill" award for spending the most coins. Vorsprung wins the "Lucky Bugger" award for spending the second lowest number of coins. 1337ness_of_teh_n00b wins the "Beat Over the Head" award for spending the lowest amount of coins, and is eliminated.
Mizicho, Beese, and Orandulum got one strike each.
- Round 3 Results:
Beese wins the "Overkill" award for spending the most coins. Krika wins the "Lucky Bugger" award for spending the second lowest number of coins, and gets those coins back. (again) Orandulum wins the "Beat Over the Head" award for spending the lowest amount of coins, and is eliminated.
Vorsprung and Mizicho received one strike each.
Mizicho had to meet Beese's bid, but could not, and so he too is eliminated.
Coin submission for Round 1 is Saturday after I get back from the Brickworks, which is a little over 48 hours from this post. I would do a countdown but I'm at school, just add 48 hours to this post time for a vague idea on when you need the submission in by.Coin submission for Round 2 is here, which is 48 hours from when I told Vorsprung and Orandulum their new coin totals.Deadline for Round 3 is Thursday 28/6Deadline for Round 4 is as soon as I get back from Victor Harbour, which is on the 3rd of July. Won't bother with the deadline because you've all been aiming for 48 hours anyway.

| No, 1337ness, that sounds fine. You go ahead and put down 20 coins. I'm sure it'll work out fine. | |

| I'm probably going to put in exactly 630 coins
Why do I say this? Because I want to screw with you. | |

| On doing more calculations, I've concluded that one coin is a great submission.
1000 isn't bad either.
These calculations may or may not exist. | |

| I'm pretty sure that the safest, and therefore arguably best, submission would be (1000-1)/P, where 'P' is the number of other players. Do it every turn, and you're submitting the highest possible amount without fear of running out of coins. | |

It was, however, ingenious. | |

| ROUND 1 DEADLINE HAS HIT.
Strikes going to Orandulum and Vorsprung.
The person who spent the most coins was Mizicho! Orandulum and Vorsprung had to meet his bid.
The person who spent the second lowest amount of coins was Krika! Krika gets those coins back
The person who spent the lowest amount of coins is Cracked Atlas! He is beaten over the head repeatedly with a large wooden mallet and removed from the game.
Round 2 starts now, and finishes in 48 hours | |

| Well, I'll tell you all my spending patterns, because there's some humour to be had.
I submitted 800 coins day one, so I'm confused as to how people submitted more than that; I just did it as a joke. Then I submitted 20 coins and lost. Apparently 20 is a bad number.
Make of that what you will, living players. | |

Make of that what you will, living players. It's humorous because he is lying. I'm pretty much guaranteed to die this round anyway. Mizicho spent the most first round with 666 coins which I also had to pay due to ignorance, which means 1337ness couldn't have spent 800. but I have no idea about the 2nd round submission. | |

Oh, and this is the final three so you'll all be getting an award this round, and for round 5 I'm assuming the final two go all in, and so this is essentially the last round. | |

What a pathetic way to end this game.
