This time I am going to change the rules up a bit. A couple changes I'm considering are:
1. Make votes public.
2. Put people in groups, with the majority in the group deciding the group vote. Like the Electoral College, but with every state having one vote. I will reserve the right to mix up the groups, as I wish.
At this time, I'm accepting suggestions on the rules as well as names.
Please only volunteer if you can commit to actively playing and put in a vote each round.
As before, this is a 100% free-roll.
I think public voting, electoral tribes, or both would be fun.
I support both of the new rule changes.
Would we know whos in whos group?
Instead of $1 or $2 can I take payments of 0.001 or 0.002 WZC (WizCoin)?
And..... IN.
Suggested Name: "Cooperation Game II" =D
Count me in.
Is Discooperation a word. I might have to set up http://discooperation.com/
Damn it. You put Mendleson back in my head. Back to therapy for me,Quote: JohnnyQLet's class this place up a bit, how 'bout "part deux" ?
So the normal day to day political thread or betting system threads.Quote: OnceDearWill there be all kinds of mind-games, mischief, hateful posts, name-calling and suspensions?
Quote: WizardLet it be known that I'm accepting names for Cooperation Game II. As you may recall, the original Cooperation Game was a big success, with 97 pages of posts. The first post in that thread explained the rules the first game. Again, I must commend the group on developing a strategy to nearly optimize winnings, despite some selfish people who picked $2 every time.

Add a $100 jackpot option such that if one person selects it, he gets paid, but if more than one selects it, no one gets anything including the smaller prizes.

I would like to get this to around 40 people, preferably long-standing members we all know. More peer pressure that way.
Come on Forum, who doesn't love a FREE-ROLL ? Let's win as much as we can and have ROMES parlay it into an even bigger payday for us. OR the WIZ for that matter, counting and betting until he gets a talking to.Quote: WizardI would like to get this to around 40 people, preferably long-standing members we all know.

I'm so poor that I can't afford to pay attention.
The requirement to keep PM' s strictly confidential makes sharing votes problematic. If votes are shared, colluding becomes more difficult. Some clarification about what can be made public from PM' s will be required.
What happened to "Golden Balls"?
I can't quite remember exactly how it happened but this is how I remember it.Quote: IbeatyouracesI'm so poor that I can't afford to pay attention.
I offered to pump it up and perhaps double it given a few weeks. I was fairly confident I could since I had a few people who would help do some of the various new member's promotions and whatnot around town, including some good little bar gigs.
We were also doing the 1/2 parlays and I assumed we would could get down on that as well, especially with some help from all the people who were in town during that time.
I guess people wanted somthing different and went with Romes. IIRC Romes missed one of the best weeks ever for the 1/2 parlays. We certainly crushed it that week.
Basically, Romes FKED everyone in the___ that weekend (including a couple...OH, NVM).
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I feel like votes would have to be made via PM, then revealed publicially in the thread at the end of each round.
If it was 100% public voting in the thread, it would take forever to get everyone to vote because the final voters would get a huge advantage.

Yup, it was week 7, 2016 season. We would have been 6 for six and would have had a few 4, 5 and 6 team cards.......... (Scroll half way down the page of the thread linked and you'll see the picks in my post)
It was one hell of a "what could have been" situations.
I think some people still don't know the difference between the actual cooperation game team vs the Romes parlay card team.........................................
I'm unfortunately going to be traveling a lot over the next month or so, so will not opt in to this game :(

Yup. I would have personally made about $20,000 too betting my own money. All because I didn't want to leave two kids in my car in the casino parking lot for 15 minutes. Perfect example about how parenthood and the AP lifestyle don't mix well.
Here is the latest list. I would like to get a definite confirmation on those names with an asterisk.

As to private messages, I'm thinking that only final votes to me will be disclosed. If you're going to play, you will have to accept this exception to the normal privacy policy of PM's. It will be allowed to lie to each other in PM's, as this is part of the game.

I'm out. Was just making a joke to Axel. Too much time doing other things.
How much time does it take to put in a bid once in a while? Just give me your WOV log in information, ill do it for you. I won't delete all your posts I promise.

That's not very nice. You can't allow that or everyone would make similar requests. Romes VS the rest of the forum wouldn't be very fair, now would it?Quote: HeyMrDJI'm in, but want to be on the opposite team to Romes.
