Hello and welcome to TSR Would I Lie To You? The thread that separates the fact from the fiction.
This game involves telling us something about yourself, that you've never told us before. And the rest of us have to guess whether you're telling the truth, or a lie.
How it will work: Those who wish to play should submit via PM to me either:
- An unbelievable truth about themselves, like something very funny that happened to you.
or:
- If nothing particularly spectacular has happened in your life, then simply make one up.
Make it clear to me whether your tale is true or a lie. I will know, as question master, what the real answers are, but will not reveal.
What happens next? You have until midnight on Tuesday 5th September to submit your entry into the competition.
A special guest will make the draw on Wednesday 6th September to decide the order of play.
A thread will be made for each person's story, with what they PMed me entered into the OP. The rest of the players (and any other users) can then ask questions to find out if they're telling the truth, or it's all a big lie.
After 24 hours a poll will go up for a further 24 hours (or 12, haven't decided yet). Once the poll closes, the truth will be revealed.
Scoring Scoring will be given as the margin of victory. E.g. if 12 people vote lie and 8 vote true and the person was telling the truth, then their score is +4. Negative scores are possible.
Rules: :fuhrer: Please do not reveal the truth before the given time-frame.
Please do not reveal the truth privately to anyone on TSR, even if they're not playing, they might see the thread and contribute as a normal user.
Do not make something up and pretend that it's true when you submit your entry. You must be honest with me.
Try to make sure nobody active on TSR already knows your story.
Please keep it (fairly) legal, and preferably PG.
