Tips for round winners:

If you don't have a great idea when you learn that it is your turn, don't just make a round that you don't even think is good. Try to think to come up with a good idea for a round, and then if you can't, then make a round that you don't even think is good.

Also you're encouraged to start the round in this format: "You have one post to [what you have one post to do goes here]"

Additionally don't end the round early. Rounds should be at least close to a day long. If you started the round at night, you can't end it tomorrow morning. If you started it in the morning, you shouldn't end it before you go to bed.

Interrounds:
The people running rounds are ideally supposed to judge approximately 24 hours after they start the round, but from now on if they haven't judged after 30 hours (6 hours late) then anyone is allowed to start a round between rounds, like the guess when Livio will start the next round, guess how many dogs shos has, ect.

You're also allowed to do this if the round has been judged within 30 hours, but the next guy hasn't started their round within 12 hours of the other round being judged.

The catch is of course that the round could end at any time, because these rounds last until the current round is judged and the next round begins.
You may judge rounds however you'd like, but at the end of the round there can only be one winner.

These rounds will be marked as ".5"s in the previous rounds and winners

There are many definitions of toast. I'll go with this one: To be doomed, ruined, or in trouble. Silver's entry was toast 1/10

The lack of ? at the end makes it look stupider than it really is. It might look really bad, but the actual question isn't too bad 2/10

As for the actual question, none. You're too busy sleeping like a baby to hold up any fingers.
'Cedric' said:

Yes. Some number between 2 and 2 /10

Yes. These straightforward questions about whether or not I can take a guess at something are starting to get repetitive 2/10

A good start would be getting a drivers license of some kind 3/10
'Bmwsu' said:

No, because I had to think about that answer 0/10
'Yaya' said:

It wasn't properly immunized 4/10

I've seen better efforts. Soccerboy was the only one whose entry really stood out as being well poorly thought out. Soccerboy wins.

You have one post to explain why Chezerony brought "You Have One Post To..." to Hatena and why that has more hits on google.

Clearly trying to spread a very successful forum game.

Because Hatena is apparently more popular than the interguild so regardless of the popularity of any topics, it will get more love on google.



Anyways, the execution wasn't too good. The description was a little off, the use of the word "impress" seems to be simply derived from the first 2 rounds, and the example is completely inane. A better example might be a round that actually took place with some of the entries. The non-diabolical round would probably be pretty good for that.

I feel like part of the success of this game was how it evolved. It didn't start as a game, it started as a topic. "You have one post to impress me." It reiterated the same round concept in the second  round, and then began to move forward. Eventually when everyone got used to it, D52 ended reign as round operator and handed it off to the public. Also you need a good amount of active members to participate in it for it to work. The more people participating == the more fun each round is

But I don't know anything about the community that Chezerony posted it in, so it could still succeed. I'm just saying I would have done it differently.

Chezorony is clearly an industrial spy and must be executed. That site is higher on google because his company made spam bots that constantly visit the page with spoofed IP addresses, thereby increasing its popularity.

This one's been sitting in my "Saved Draft of One Post Topic Ideas among other random things" for a while (for good reason), so why not give it a try so that I can take it out of there?

You have one post to be as annoying as possible.

I wonder how much I'll regret this. I'll clean it up after the round ends, though.
