Thread Necromancy Slowmode

Post by somitomi »

It's time to resurrect more thread necromancy games, starting with slowmode. Paraphrased from the original: In this version, the finest-grained time unit shall be one week. In other words, your time gains when you post are rounded down to the nearest number of weeks since the last post.
As usual, everyone starts at 0 and now let's forget about this.

Nope, let someone else have a crack at it after you scored. Oh, and you know what? The time should be counted from the last post that scored nonzero points (or the OP). Just so people don't bump the thread and make it impossible to score.

Oops, sorry, forgot that rule. I think the equivalent thread on the old forum allowed double posting.

I'm not entirely sure whether this gives me a point. Depends on how chridd interpreted the rules about double posting - does my previous post not contribute because it didn't score anything?

EDIT: Looks like I didn't score... which means it's up for grabs!

*checks code*
Looks like I just ignore double posts, like in regular necromancy.
