Okay, how about keep the thread, google sheet scoreboard, no map? Keep the same general number wars rules. For a bit, people can post a link to the spreadsheet while they post so new players can see it while the OP remains unchanged.

Sure, that's fine. As a reminder, the OP  itself cannot be changed.

Once everybody is aware of our current situation and option, we will put up a post with the new rules and it will be up to the core players to link new players to it. Every time a victory happens, someone can copy the contents in to a new post and update the score so that it is at the beginning of the next battle to be linked to.

For those not in the discussion PM.

This thread can't be locked unless Atomictech asks for it, and Atomictech will not be around to ask, so this thread cannot be locked.

A new thread for anything resembling this type of game can not be started while this one is unlocked and will get locked if people try to start one.

So our option is as above.

Hi. Guess who's back! What happened here?

Need to update rules, can't edit this, can't lock this one without Atomic, can't start new one with this one opened or it will get locked. Can't have a map or anything that resembles role play. Post above yours is best option.

"post above you is best option." What does that even mean????? And what is editing?????

I responded to your post. The post before the post of yours that I responded to was a post by me showing our only option to continue the number wars with the updated rules.

Editing is when you go in and change something that already exists. In this case the original post of this thread that states the rules.

New Game Rules.

These are new game rules. As it is impossible to edit the original post it is asked that any time a core player sees a new player that they link them to this or the copy of this that is to be placed at the beginning of a new battle, that will have an updated tally of victories.

As per instructions from the moderators. There is to be no role play elements to the battle. Simple exclamations that we are getting ahead or falling behind, or saying you need help are fine, but no suggestion that you are part of an army or fantasy faction in some epic confrontation.

It is more or less attempting to reach a goal line and passing to another with the same goal or getting intercepted by someone going the other way.

There is a term used in the forums called "Being Ninja'd". Basically if while you are typing your post someone else posts a move and you don't see it till you have refreshed your page. This then causes you to have to edit your post to correct for the new number. It is then not unheard of for someone to post before you have had a chance to edit your post and so a cascade effect happens. To make clear your original intent in the hopes of lessening this, There is a new rule for posting as follows.

When posting please preface your number by one of 4 letters.

P if you are trying to get the score to +75

N if you are trying to get the score to -75

Z if your goal is to get the score to zero

C if you are chaotic and just post as you feel, but your number must only be 1 different from the last post put.

By doing this a player can see what you intended to put and post knowing what it would be if you had not been ninja'd.

There is a 5 minute rule for individual number posts done by you, this is to minimise spam and ninja posting. To post a new number post there are 4 rules that must be followed for it to be considered valid.

To make a valid number post,

1: Your previous post must say it was made 5 minutes or greater before your current.

2: Any other player must have posted a number post between your last post and your new post.

3: Your post must be only 1 number different from the last post.

4: Your number must have a preface letter.

All new games must start with a "0" .

If you posted the winning post, be it +75 or -75 , then it is asked that you copy this post into a new post and update the tally so that this is at the beginning of a new game.

Tally of Victories.

Positive wins: 0

Negative wins: 0

Where's the mention of me? I already said i'm back

Sorry but your last official request was to not be contacted. I will now assume from what you have said that you are giving permission to be contacted again.
