Ok, I've talked with my buddy a while about this and I think this is the perfect balance for the new Rookies. Read the rules below and provide feedback!
14 players
12 hour days
20 T$ to enter
New additions:
HOH bedroom - private chat room controlled by HOH. HOH gets to add/remove who has access to the chat room at any time. Users with access can only read messages that occur WHILE they have access to the room (no historical messages).
Food competitions - If you are on "slop", your food score diminishes. Otherwise, your food score slowly gains. You can also gain food score by being HOH. You can eat random apples that popup in chat to gain a little more food score. If your food score reaches 0% (a few consecutive slop days and little activity), you will die and be eliminated.
Double elimination - One day during the game (Before you reach the top 4), both nominated players will be eliminated from the competition. This is determined at random.
Jury - 3rd place through 10th place eliminated players will become the Jury. At any point through the rest of the game, they can rearrange the order of the players remaining to determine who should win. The person at the top is the person they want to win the most, bottom the least. They can change and resave this order at any time.
Day 1:
HOH is selected at random. Everyone arranges players in order from top to bottom (similar to Duel games). Top being the person you want to nominate/eliminate the most, bottom the least. You can change and resave this order at any time. This will be your nomination order if you become HOH or POV.
Day 2:
2 nominees are selected based on the HOH's nomination order (top 2 get nominated). Everyone (except HOH) competes for POV by playing a competition. Your completed score is visible to everyone. You also get to choose one person you would save from the block (or nobody).
Once all players have competed, or after 8 hours, the leading scorer becomes POV holder (shown publicly) and his decision is executed. If he chose to remove someone from the block, the next valid player in his nomination order is sent to the block in replacement.
Day 3:
An Elimination occurs. Of the 2 nominees, the nominee with the most points (the person who was highest in everyone's nominee order) is evicted.
New HOH is selected BASED ON ALGO. Food competition begins. Players are randomly split into 2 teams. Each player's score is accumulated into the entire team's score.
Day 4:
The losing team of the food competition goes on "slop" until the next food competition (unless you are HOH).
Repeat Day 2.
Day 5:
Repeat Day 3, etc
...
Day 19 (Presumably): Final 4 day
New HOH is selected. Nominees are chosen by order. No food comp. Everyone is safe from food death. Final POV comp and POV decision is executed.
Day 20:
Last evicted by votes. The bottom player on the POV's nomination order is also eliminated. This leaves the final remaining 2 players.
Day 21:
Winner is decided based on the player order selected from each of the Jury members.
Suggestion
Day 1 and HoH days onward, POV same day as HoH is crowned, Nominations are made on day 1.
POV comp day 1. everyone in POV make a list of who they would veto other then self.
Nomination would be in a list, such as the Duel is, on the account of Veto.
i like it but rando won't agree with those prizes most likely they're a little high like most games the total clost of the contestants payment to enter is higher than the money they make. That way T$ go away forever this one there's more T$ earned then used to enroll
snowflake - my thought on why the jury shouldn't wait:
With the voting method I proposed, this stops the jury from forgetting about the game and not doing their duty of voting for the winner. The ones who want to vote on the last day still can.. the ones who want to wash their hands of the game can have their say right after they are evicted
Instead of a list there should be BACK-UP nominees, because what if there is 2 people u dont want up together? there should be NOMINEES tab and a BACK-UP FOR EACH NOMS just in case VETO is used in each of them
You aregiving the algo too much power, there should be HoH competitions, no list crap, definitely no double elimination due to the amount of T$ to get in... HoH should be able to compete for PoV, you are completely messing it up...
