THINGS WILL BE A BIT DIFFERENT HERE THAN IN THE GAMES I USUALLY RUN. SINCE THIS IS AN OPEN IDENTITY EXPERIENCE, THERE REALLY AREN'T ANY MAJOR RULES THE WAY WE NORMALLY DO. BUT HERE ARE THINGS YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF....




1) Your password is not to be shared with anyone. And your password needs to remain the same. DO NOT make any changes to anything at all about your account. I spend a lot of time setting up each profile the exact same way. Keep it as is. (If your timezone has changed and you want to adjust the settings to your new timezone, send me a PM.)


2) If you want to share our game board link, that's fine. Although, if you post the link on facebook, it usually won't go through. If you really want to post it on facebook, send me a PM and I'll let you know how you can direct people here. And feel free to post our
~ ALL-STARS GAME INTRO LINK ~ from YouTube as well.


3) You ARE ALLOWED to privately message ANY PLAYER at ANY TIME throughout the WHOLE GAME. Even if you aren't on the same tribe, you can message each other freely at any time.


4) Obviously, since we all know who is playing who, you can communicate however you want. The things that are usually off limits are fine here. Facebook, IMs, text, etc. are allowed if you want. BUT........if you are not CHATTING HERE..........we all know how quick you can start to be viewed as inactive. AND.........you all know how much my round by round private Host Confessionals ROCK after the game has wrapped. If you spend too much time doing your game chatting away from our board here........you will disappear from the game. I can only write about WHAT HAPPENS HERE. You are robbing yourself if you game chat too much away from our board because after the game is over.....you won't have any clue how the whole game went down and neither will I.
IF I CAN'T SEE IT - I CAN'T WRITE ABOUT IT. And it's not just your Confessionals that I use for material. I SPEND A GREAT DEAL OF TIME GOING THROUGH EACH PLAYER'S PRIVATE MESSAGES. * * * SO MAKE SURE YOU CLICK THOSE TWO BOXES BEFORE YOU SEND EACH PM SO THAT YOU CAN TRACK WHEN IT IS READ AND YOU'LL HAVE A COPY IN YOUR SENT FOLDER. YOUR SENT FOLDER IS WHAT I USE TO READ ABOUT WHAT YOU'VE BEEN UP TO. IF YOU DON'T CHECK THOSE TWO BOXES EVERY TIME, I WILL HAVE NO RECORD OF YOUR INDIVIDUAL GAME. * * *


5) Make sure you thoroughly read through the instructions in your VOTING BOOTH so that you know about CONFESSIONAL PENALTIES which is an element that is specific to our ALL-STARS GAME. There are very specific details in there for you about how overlooking your Confessional will result in receiving a separate penalty vote. READ THAT SECTION THOROUGHLY. And we shouldn't reach a point where I'm having to make a judgment call about what counts as a valid entry or not. If it's clear that you're just posting a sentence or two just so you won't get penalized.....that doesn't count. I would consider a valid entry anything that accurately tells me what you've been up to in the game.....who are you talking to, who's talking to you, who's out to get you, who are you out to get, etc. etc. etc. We all know what a valid entry is. I don't necessarily care about the specific length of it.......I just care about the content and the details. YOU ALL KNOW THAT CONFESSIONALS ARE MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE PART OF ANY GAME. AND THERE SHOULDN'T BE ANY CONFESSIONALS THAT ARE EMPTY OR LACKING. THIS IS AN ALL-STARS GAME!!!




Sooooooo.....with all that said........I trust that every player will follow these rules as it will make this experience much better. You have my word that I will do everything possible to keep this game running smoothly and fairly. I'm excited to see what each player brings to the table, so let's get started!




* * * PLEASE COMMENT HERE SO I KNOW YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE RULES OF THIS GAME. THANKS. * * *
