Chinese Checkers

**Valigarmander** · 01-20-2012, 07:09 PM

Because we need more forum games, anyway.

The goal is to move all of your pieces from one end of the board to the opposite. The game can be played with two, three, four or six players. I'll play, and HotD already said she'd be willing to, so that makes two players. Anyone else want to give it a go?

For those who aren't familiar with the rules, look here.

Thanks, Val!!!

Let me know when we start... *gives you marshmallows*

***CaptHayfever*** · 01-21-2012, 12:16 AM

I'll play, as long as the Risk-style 24-hour turns are in place.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

***Marilink*** · 01-21-2012, 01:22 AM

I'm in!

**Valigarmander** · 01-21-2012, 09:13 PM

Alright, that's four people.

Would everyone be able to manage a rule where your turn is skipped if you don't post within 24 hours of your turn coming up?

***Heroine of the Dragon*** · 01-22-2012, 01:13 AM

I think I can manage that...

**Loot** · 01-22-2012, 03:26 AM

Can I be a cheerleader?

Blake · 01-22-2012, 05:55 AM

Is there room for one more? And I'm cool with the rule.

***CaptHayfever*** · 01-22-2012, 02:31 PM

Yes, I agree to the rule which I requested when I signed up.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

I dunno if you can play with five players.

Loot, do you want to join in too to even it out?

**Loot** · 01-23-2012, 02:41 AM

Fine but can I still wear the cheerleader outfit I already paid the deposit

**Valigarmander** · 01-23-2012, 12:16 PM

No.

Alright, we'll move clockwise around the board. We'll start with HotD, then go to Capt, ML, Blake, Loot, and finally moi.

Code:

            H
           H H
          H H H
         H H H H
V V V V - - - - - C C C C

         B B B B
          B B B
           B B
            B

To make your move, simply edit the code. Just make sure that the board remains perfectly aligned after you make your move. Hot Dog, you're up first.

**Valigarmander** · 01-23-2012, 03:24 PM

To elaborate on the 24-hour rule:

Let's say HotD makes her move, so it's now Capt's turn. If ML sees that 24 hours have passed since HotD made her move and Capt has yet to post in the thread, ML can then take his turn. Once ML posts, Capt has to wait until it's his turn again.

Furthermore, if neither Capt nor ML post, and Blake sees that its been at least 48 hours since HotD's post, he can take his turn. And so on. This way we can keep the game moving without needing a host.

***Marilink*** · 01-23-2012, 04:01 PM

Sounds great.
