SandDanz - December 23, 2005 11:19 AM (GMT)
Xeyra - do you have a back-up somewhere of all the players?
xallroyx - December 23, 2005 11:25 AM (GMT)

Yes, I have the list of players. That's not a problem. :) I just need to remember who the back ups were because Megi53 dropped off the swap. I think Apolonia or Antheras was the first backup...

YBS #10

Rules:1. Player #1 calls on any of the OTHER players to REVEAL their book. You cannot reveal your own book until someone ELSE calls on you to reveal!
2. Whoever is called on to REVEAL posts the name and author of their book and a brief description. (please also post in the thread for book descriptions only)
3. The revealed book goes to Player #1.
4. Player #2 can either
- steal Player #1's book! In this case, Player #1 must call on someone else to REVEAL and the newly revealed book goes to Player #1
OR
- call on someone else to REVEAL and the newly revealed book goes to Player #2
5. Player #3 can then either steal from Player #1 or from Player #2 or ask someone else to REVEAL.
6. Each player following #1 can steal any revealed book that any other player has. The player who has their book stolen can also steal from any other player so that once more players are involved, several steals can take place before another REVEAL. The only restriction is that you CANNOT steal a book that has just been stolen from you! Each book swap will have a certain number of maximum steals per book (this does not include initial reveal), and then the book is OUT OF PLAY. Max steals are often set at 5, but this is not always the case.
7. Player #1 gets to make the final play as they have no choice throughout the game unless someone steals their book.
8. There are no time limits, other than if you haven't made your first move and your book hasn't been revealed, you will be skipped if you haven't been online within 12 hours once your turn comes up. We will put you at the end of the list.

Oh, very slick Xeyra! Cool!
Xeyra - December 23, 2005 01:34 PM (GMT)
Okay, rules and participants list are up. We can still have this show. We just need to contact everyone to get here to play.
And choose a time. I was thinking somewhere in the afternoon for us Europeans, which would mean morning, early afternoon for people in the US. Depends on when the first person in the game can be around, I guess. LOL. How do you usually decide the times?
Ri - December 23, 2005 01:37 PM (GMT)
Woo hoo! Glad this swap is still going to take place!! Hooray!!
missbagpuss - December 23, 2005 01:51 PM (GMT)
yaaaay - another victory for the relayers! :bananadance:
Marlene - December 23, 2005 02:05 PM (GMT)
Yes Yes
and I agree that I also think it was melinda on the reserves + someone else?
school?
sandy dandy do you have ways to contact these people, those that were not as addicted as us, or not as smart by looking on the BC site? (is there a whistle smiley) :cheers:

Melinda was on reserve and so was Antheras, who is now on the play list because Megi53 dropped off (she PMed me).
shaunesay - December 23, 2005 02:12 PM (GMT)
checking in to show I made it over here...
morsecode - December 23, 2005 02:23 PM (GMT)
i'm here... can't want for the swap
kislany - December 23, 2005 02:25 PM (GMT)
When is the swap? I'm on holidays the whole next week, so if it's sometimes during this period, can I be put as reserve? I want to play too ;)
Ixion - December 23, 2005 02:26 PM (GMT)
When exactly is this game supposed to start anyhow? Is it starting today or after Christmas?

Xeyra - December 23, 2005 02:37 PM (GMT)
Can someone tell me which of the participants hasn't been contacted yet about the new forum so I can let them know? Thanks.

I can check tonight to see if I have any of their email addys, but PMing them through BCing might be faster if someone wants to try.

I've done it. The YBS players have been contacted or have found their way here already. We now just have to hope they all drop in on the 28th at least. :)
I'll put the play order online on Monday.
xallroyx - December 23, 2005 03:24 PM (GMT)
I am so glad this is still going on:)

Xeyra - December 23, 2005 03:31 PM (GMT)
I have been looking forward to it too, especially as I get to host it! :P I hope everyone receives the PMs and finds their way here. I think I'll send PMs again near the date to remind them of it if they haven't dropped in meanwhile.
