Thanks to vicious for helping me bounce idea's around! This is a bit tedious to read, but I think this could be such a fun game!
Hello tengaged, this is my idea for a new tengaged game. I like this game for three reasons.
a) It is challenge based, but there is also a lot of strategy to the duel. Even if you don't like someone, you may not want to face them in the duel and therefore pick them
b) Friends/Pre-mades can FINALLY join a game together without having full domination of the game, if you see a pre-made alliance in the game and you know you are good at challenges, you can still join and try to overcome the odds. I personally would like that challenge sometimes!
c) It would be nice to have an individual/team/strategy game that features 1 vs 1 competitions
How The Duel Show Works:
Everyone competes in a challenge, and the winner of the challenge is safe from the Duel no matter what. This person picks one person to be safe, who in turn picks another person etc. etc. Until there is ONE player left. That remaining player chooses someone to face in the duel (cannot be challenge winner)
The 2 that go into the duel face-off and the loser is eliminated.
Game Rules:
Must Be Blue/Purple level to play (We could make it a game that allows the veterans to have a game more exclusive to themselves, and yet another goal to work for)
12 player per game
12 hour days
Day 1: All cast members compete in the challenge. The HIGHEST scorer is safe from being called into the duel.
>> Each player must go into "duel voting" every day and make their preferred order. This means that when you get chosen to be safe, the person that is ranked highest on your list that has not already been chosen will also be safe. The algo will calculate the picked order down to the last person.
Ex. Maggie, CCpath, Abrogate, PrincessTeePee, Brenn are left.
Brenn wins the challenge and ranks her list:
1. Abrogate
2. Maggie
3. CCpath
4. PrincessTeePee
Abrogate would then be safe, and choose someone off his list
1. Brenn
2. PrincessTeepee
3. CCpath
4. Maggie
Because Brenn is already safe, the algo would select PrincessTeePee to be safe.
PrincessTeepee's list
1. Abrogate
2. Ccpath
3. Maggie
4. Brenn
So therefore ccpath would be safe (since abrogate is already picked) and MAGGIE is left to go into the duel.
How The Duel's opponent is selected.
It is based again off the Dueler's list (aka Maggie): The Lowest person on their list is who they will pick to Duel.
1. Ccpath
2. PrincessTeepee
3. Abrogate
4. Brenn
Since Brenn was the challenge winner, Abrogate would go into the duel VS Maggie.
Day 2-11 there will be a challenge/duel voting and a duel.
On Day 12, it will be the final day with 3 competitors who will compete in a final challenge to win. (Perhaps a combination with algo so that if the last challenge is numbers it gives the ones who are not good at numbers or match 3 a chance to place well)
I hope this is not confusing, I tried to explain things systematically. Basically the game is based on how well you do at challenges, and how you rank your list. The algorithm would do all the thinking for us!
EDIT: Prices/Prizes
Price: 25T Per Game
12th-9th- 1 karma 0 T
8th- 2 karma 5 T
7th- 3 karma 8 T
6th- 5 karma 10 T
5th- 7 karma 15 T
4th 10 karma 25 T
3rd 12 karma- 30 T
2nd - 15 karma 40 T
1st- 20 karma 60 T
Possible?
EDIT 2: inactive players that do not make a list could either
a) be auto sent to the duel with a random opponent
b) randomly choose from players left
*color level does not have to be blue + just a suggestion.
just one thing i think needs to be editted: what if the last person on your list isnt the same person you want to go into the duel with? cause maybe although you dont want to pick them, if you are the last person left, you might want to pick someone else that might be easier to beat. so maybe they should have a seperate button called "Who you want to call out" and you lock in 1 person. hope this is understandable XD
Another mistake you overlooked was what about inactive players that don't pick but get picked?

in this case bonkers, u make a list day 1 any way u want, and as the days keep going u can alter that list and if u dont change it then it stays the same, that way inactives dont affect it.
-another reason why this should be a high level game
Yack.... Ive never liked the Duels voting process and found it pretty crap.
Basically unless you win a challenge you aint safe and no matter how many allies you have, you aint safe
i love this! and the idea of a game for a "BLUE and PURPLE+ level" is just amazing! i hate the fact that you don't get anything from green to purple but more +..
I looove it! My first thought has already been adressed. The last person you'd keep safe isn't necessarily who you'd want to go into the Duel with. Other than that, I would love this game!
To all the people saying that the last person on your list is not the person you want to go in the duel: just put the people you want to in the bottom!
I love the MTV challenges and The Duel is my favorite formatted challenge, I would be so happy if this was made even though I'm not the right color level yet, I'd work my ass off to get high color level JUST to play this game. Defiantly worth the read. +1 XD
i agree i think its a great idea and id love to play it!! it seems to have a good format set up and i think it would be the best game b/c it gives ppl a chance against premades and if you cant break them up, then you can only blame yourself and not b/c of numbers anymore!!
