I've been trying to brainstorm some special game ideas by myself for the last couple of days and I have hit a wall. I thought it might be best to post a blog about it to see if people have some thoughts on games that they might want to see in the future (whether they be larger scale events or smaller games I typically host on Friday/Saturday like special fastings/frookies).
Keep in mind that there are obviously limitations to what we can host based on the tools that we have. I'd be happy to have a discussion in the comments with anybody who has any questions.
Feel free to post your thoughts below. It can be for any Tengaged game (Stars, Hunger, Fastings, Frookies, etc.) or it can be a special event that the mods can host themselves.
honestly it would never happen but an anonymous game where people play behind multis would be rly cute if it could avoid being leaked who everyone was, sorta like masked singer

Banned hunger
District hunger (everyone is assigned a district and gets bonus Ts for working w their district partners and making it to the end with them)
Inactive stars (16 random skeletons get enrolled)
I still really want to see anonymous stars happen and I think that could be super exciting, but in terms of smaller ideas you could do a twist on the old sole survivor format. Fill two tribes of ten, and then whoever of those twenty is the final one merging receives a prize. With a 3-4 merge deadline to get everyone out, or something like that. Could be cool.
- Get rid of swaps in survivor and have sole survivor
- Fast hunger where everyone gets 50 arrows to start and it ends at one hour and whoever has the most health wins if not everyone is dead by then. Mutts take more of your health if you’re not in the corn. Once you fight someone. You have 5 minutes to play the challenge or it defaults to 0.
In this game the winner would be irrelevant in terms of the "bonus" prize, all you need to do to be in with a chance is be in the final two. My thinking is have a set prize pool of a certain amount eg. say 100T$, then for every HoH/PoV the Final 2 have accumulated throughout the game it adds 10T$ to the prize pool. For example if the final two have a combined 3 HoH's + 4 PoV's between them that's 100T$ + 70T$ bonus = 170T$ final prize pool.
The final two then have to decide if they want to split or steal the bonus pool. If they split, in this example each user gets 85T$ extra. If one user steals and one splits then the user that steals takes all 170T$ of the bonus. If both steal none of the final two get any bonus.
Idk if this would work in reality and may be boring
maybe more types of specials frooks?
I remember when we could always claim frooks as something special and they were always so fun. Not even saying there had to be an extra t-prize but just to maybe switch it up

Yes love this idea but it should at the end of the day add the game to the actual profile.. dunno how this can be done. I know you already can’t transfer karma either so unless you can manage to transfer game karma/winnings it’s meh
This might have been done before idr but it's kinda similar to banned stars.
16 people get selected, banned, and then enrolled into stars (or enroll and banned immediately). Each DC someone (maybe an esteemed group game host that would be willing to help?) hosts an HOH competition, where the winner nominates 2 people. Then there's a POV competition, where one of the noms can be saved of course. The HOH makes a renom then gets unbanned to lock in their noms, and the public obviously votes to evict. If the HOH breaks the rules and nominates someone who was not one of their announced noms, they forfeit all winnings for the game and get banned for an extra week or something.
This one is just small extra payouts for select players:
Bounty Hunter Frookies
Everyone's given a random bounty at the beginning of the game
If your bounty is eliminated before you, you get 50T
Each time your bounty is eliminated before you, you're randomly assigned a new bounty
Each time one of your bounties is eliminated before you, you receive an extra 50T
By the end of the game, the player with the most bounties eliminated wins an extra 200T
okay i have so many ideas tbh but how about picklejar
20 people sign up
you have a number from 1-10000
everyone pms you a number each round(only one turn per round). you blog when the round starts and when the round ends. you accept answers before the turn ends. obviously make it as short as possible.
once the round ends you will message each person if they are higher or lower. the game ends once someone guesses the number you had in mind.
Prize is up to you obv.
All the contestants are randomized into a tournament bracket and they have a ftd to see who moves on.
Algo survivor:
Both tribes are banned for the duration of the game and if you make merge you gain like double or triple payouts. It’s a long time being banned, so the prize would have to be worth it.
Also you need to have high health to be enrolled, or else peeps would die.
Manhunt fastings:
Basically there are 3-5 anonymous hiders that the rest of the cast has to eliminate. If one of the hiders makes final 3, all hiders get a prize bonus. If the hunters are able to successfully knock out all of the hiders, they split a prize.
Neighborhood Frookies:
Regular Frookies, but you are only allowed to use veto on yourself or the two people next to you for the entire game. If you win and none of you are on the block, you cannot use the veto. Once the people next to you are eliminated, you can only veto yourself for the rest of the game.
On call frooks! A frookies where each player gets on Skype or discord and goes on call the entire game, as people get evicted they leave the call. A jury chat gets made where they go on call during the jury phase if they want.
Obviously people would need to be entertaining for that lmao
Over the course of a week, every night, a themed Frookies. Then on Friday, it’s All Stars and only people from the first four seasons are eligible to return.
Also an idea I have, Reverse Stars. The polls for the public would have ALL of the nominees, so like day one the public gets to vote in a poll for any of the 16 people. The two with the highest percent when the poll ends are the nominees, and the house votes which of the two to evict. Then the public gets the poll to vote one of the 15 nominees, and the cycle begins again. Once it goes to the final 3, the public votes a winner like normal.
Would have to be like a group game format hosted by the mods, but publicly talked about on blogs so people paid attention to it.
Stars Ideas:
Rivals
Duos
All Stars 3/4 (i don't know how many were done)
Noob stars
Best of the rest (People that have played more than 4/5 and never won)
I always think weekly events this summer would be fun, literally any type of idea. Find pictures on blogs, special frooks/fastings/rookies/castings Giving away stars ticket/T's
Maybe the mods could also do a user of the week to showcase good on tengaged since a lot of the site is wrapped in negativity. You could just interview them and award them T, I think it would encourage better behavior on the site as well.
Also maybe allowing tengaged marriages so I CAN officially marry the biggest hottie on this website JustMe
Omg I love the idea of anonymous games, like avi blanked out and name removed. Any evidence of a person revealing who they are and you will be banned... I would love a frookies like this!
The Reaping
Give people a week to sign up for the hunger games. Then have an Effie Trinket moment pulling the 24 names from a bowl. Also double the payouts.

Hunger in teams (6 teams of 5 people each, or 3 teams of 10). All of the members from a group who get to outlast all the other contestants will get an additional amount of TS (and karma?), which would have to be high enough to motivate people to stick to their group. This means, for example, if 3 of the members from team A get to f3, those 3 would get the extra price. Maybe the dead members from that group could also get the price or some minor price for being part of the winning group. I'm sure this would make an interesting dinamic in Hunger, since it would encourage fierce gameplay in fear of letting unbreakable alliances advance!
