Hey there, all you puzzle-lovers(Or money-lovers, whatever)! Look what's back!

During Moosewood's term, I regretted how little this event was done(We did one game, to be exact.) So, back at the beginning of Limedoils' term, I asked them if they wouldn't mind sponsoring a continuation. In response, they gave me a wonderful $1,000 grant with which to fund the prizes for the game. \:D/ Well, since then, I've been pretty busy, so I haven't had the chance to run it. Well, I'm happy to say that now that my latest book is nearly finished, and school is winding down, I will have a little extra time. So here it is, just barely starting during Limedoils' term, Solve the Clues, Type Them In, Solve the Puzzle, WIN THE MONEY!!! \:D/

For this special continuation, I've decided to revamp(anyone know what that even means? :p) the game, changing things up a bit. One of the largest concerns about this game is that the nature of it favors those who are online more often. Well, I've managed to think up a fix to that. For this edition, I will be holding sign-ups. Once the sign-up period has ended, you will all be put into a bracket(size depending on how many people we get). Then, I will host a series of matches where two individuals will face off. These will be held at an agreed-upon time which will be determined by the two players and myself. The winner of the bracket will take home a large prize, and there will also be small prizes for each individual match.

Yes, I realize this complicates things, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask. It will also probably take longer, but I think it's worth it to have a better game.

Of course, if you all feel differently, we can switch back to the original format.

With that, sign-ups are now open! You may sign up any time between now and 12:00 PM PST May 31, 2014.

I definitely want to play, but I’m not sure about how the scheduled matches will work out.
I want to take on everyone anyway, not just one other person. :noway:

I'm not sure either, but I would like to give it a try if you're all game. :)
Well, if you keep on winning your matches, you will eventually take on everyone! \:D/

It wasn’t? If each team had their own puzzle you’d have to come up with an awful lot of them. And it would be less fun because I want a chance to try all of them! If you’re doing it two at a time, there’s no reason not to reuse the same one until each groups goes through, then you can go to the next one.
