Also - I am going to say right now that I made a minor cock up that I only realised in the last ten minutes, in that there are 13 truths instead of the 12. I had originally meant to take the 'three in each group' bit out, and I haven't by accident. However, looking at the results, I am confident this hasn't affected the overall results. I can only apologise for this slight mistake. :fp:

:x That was how I was working the truths out! I demand a bonus point for this error.

Shenanigans. I say we scrap this joke of a task.

I'd also like to take this moment to wish Suzzopher the best in all his future endeavours.

The only way Team Devlin will have less than five people qualify for the next round is if we come last in this one. If Team Mystero has been hobbled (again), the chances of that happening are very slim.

I totally wasn't paying attention to the rules and have about 10 of them as lies. I demand a do-over.

No wonder no one got a perfect score :lol: One change in the structure adapts how we approach to answering a whole team.

Oh well, DML did have to put this together in a rush. Plus, I have a bonus point from the cancelled round 8-)

I am really sorry - I have only just realised. Either way, by having that belief, theres simply group where you were either guarenteed a point, or could only get five - instead of being able to score zero (which happened) and get the full six (which one person did once!). The players who have got the top scores have done so by getting the bonus points.

If I get booted because I dropped a single point, I'm coming for you, DML :evil:

In all seriousness, though, this round was a lot better than the previous one. I just wish there was slightly more time for answering questions (and possibly more questions being asked! I was expecting the thread to be a lot busier than it was...)

Honestly? Out of the two tasks, I preferred the Pointless one. This task was pretty reliant on people posting and that didn't happen for the majority of the players. As I said before, its a task that'll make more sense in a theoretical Mafia Guru Competition than a Games Guru Competition.

That's a point, was it ever decided if the Pointless folk retained the bonus point? I can't remember.

Also, kinda shitty for Team Mysterio that they've been let down by a non-submittal again.

My brain couldn't process that sentence :fp:

I thought that there were 3 of each in each group so if I had 3 I were fairly certain were lies then I presumed the other 3 were truths. If I had known this wasn't the case I would have probably acted differently. But it's too late now I guess :|

I feel very dubious that I have any bonus points. The stay quiet policy is standard bluffing fare though.

I vote that suzz be demodded. He has to hand in his gun, his badge and his PSVita.

The bonus points are retained. I have now worked out who is going through and who is going out - and I will say regards each teams tables it is NOT a close run thing on any of them in each individual league, so no need to worry about quibbling over points here and there. The smallest gap between qualifying and not is 4.5pts.

If it's all sorted, does that mean we can start early? :shifty:
