Title: Easy non-gambling twitter-based word game([0.7 BTC] just for several words) Post by: bitrain on January 10, 2012, 10:15:43 PM Hi again, my 7th7 games for newbies (1 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28394.0), 2 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=29469.0), 3 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=30803.0)) almost became a good tradition last summer... Unfortunately, I abandoned this amazing initiative for a while, but now this game is getting its second wind. This is twitter-based game now and it should be more dynamic and entertaining.
So, the first word to start is coming soon (it depends on number of participants) and new era in bitcoin history will come ;). Follow us on Twitter: @7th7game (https://twitter.com/#!/7th7game) Bitrain (7th Seven game) A simple game with healthy competition nmat Participation is free for everyone! Just participate and gain money. Recommended for newbies to get some coins to play with. Rules Operator (@7th7game (https://twitter.com/#!/7th7game)) start the game by posting a word in English with #bitrain (https://twitter.com/#!/search/realtime/%23bitrain) hash-tag on Twitter (saying word we always mean something findable in Oxford English Dictionary and some widely used brand names such as Bitcoin, Twitter, etc ). The next player have to respond with another word starting with the last letter of the previous (*correct) word posted with #bitrain (https://twitter.com/#!/search/realtime/%23bitrain) hash-tag and so on (like seven-noble-eagle-economics-sound-doom-mark(7th! + 1 point)-killer-room(2nd round)...). Your aim is to be on the 7th position in the chain 7 times (or 3 times for express-games) to win the game but you can't respond to your own words (only to somebody else's), except for the 6th word in the chain - if you are 6th, you may wait 2 minutes (120 sec. at least) and respond it to be 7th (but somebody else may do it before!). If the error occurred, you have to find the last word which is correct and respond to it (yeah, there are no guarantees that the last word in the chain is correct).. Just ignore all the combo-breakers. You have to have your own bitcoin adress (what is it? (http://bitcoin.org/)) to receive your prize. Example (full of mistakes): Quote 12:03 @7th7game #bitrain 1. bitcoin 12:04 @username #bitrain noodle 12:07 @username #bitrain error - mistake! (you can’t respond to your own words if it is not a 6th to 7th combination) 12:07 @7th7game #bitrain 3. escort 12:07 @plAYER1 #bitrain timber 12:08 @player2 #bitrain 4) towel - mistake! @plAYER1 was faster. 12:08 @player3 #bitrain 5. line - mistaken branch 12:08 @player4 #bitrain ecology - mistaken branch 12:08 @username #bitrain 4.risk (hey! check out escort-timber combination! ) 12:08 @player2 #bitrain 5) yacht - mistake! 12:09 @player4 #bitrain 5. kill 12:09 @super_combo_breaker #bitrain 3! vomit - mistake! 12:09 @username #bitrain light 12:11 @username #bitrain nestle - winner of round! (6th to 7th combibation. Player has wait 120 seconds) 12:11 @player3 #bitrain ego - mistake (you should wait for update notification from operator (@7th7game) ) 12:12 @7th7game #bitrain Winner of round: @player3 +1 point (1 out of 7 to win the game). Scoreboard: http:///////docs.google.com/document///// 12:12 @7th7game #bitrain *updated* go-go-go 12:12 @player3 #bitrain 1) ego 12:17 @plAYER1 #bitrain 2. opinion …... It's easy, quick and fun. Join us! If you do not use Twitter (https://twitter.com/) - it’s time to try it. You can also find slow in-forum version of this game in newbie section (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=57646.0), you are welcome to participate (you also have to wait for *updated* notifications every round). So, standard prize is 0.07 BTC (you may expect bigger amounts later). Probably, we'll think up some special prizes occasionally (like special prize for the first person who joined the game or for some other reasons, occasionally) Yu can make a donation to increase those amounts. You can win 0.7 BTC on twitter version now. Donations We don't mind to accept donations for prize money to run this game more often. Quote 12FPPh4PKkxbGwjU4Q9ySVEa3jFTqX7GSV Each donor have exclusive right to place their advertisement (but we may refuse to advertise some products and services because of moral concerns). So, just support us and we will advertise you effectively if you want it. We are definitely not going to flood our subscribers with spam, thus we post some ads quite rare on proportional basis (proportion depends on donation amount). Please contact us before sending your donation if you want to be listed. We reserve the right to use up to 40% of your donation to pay our operators, but normally 100% of your donation will be added to prize-money fund. Would you like to host 7th7 Games and gain some money? Usually we pay 50% of prize amount to peripatetic operators (0.035 BTC goes to the operator and 0.07 to the winner). If you have enough experience and motivation to be a 7th7 game operator - just contact us (send a private message to this forum account or official twitter account (@7th7game)). Permanent staff members do the same job for free. 2 forum users had donated some bitcoins to support this initiative last summer: Yuusha (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=34367), Cidsor (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=34864) Title: Re: Easy non-gambling twitter-based word game (promotion:follow us and get 0.05 BTC) Post by: bitrain on January 10, 2012, 11:54:59 PM Early Adopters Promotion: (the first 10 twitter-followers will receive 0.05 BTC (*suspicious fake-accounts (like an overnight account with 2 twits and 1 follower) may be ignored)).

You had a mistake on 5 to 6 crossing (line-little-email). Your last word in 1st round was in fact 6th in the chain, not 7th... But I gave you that score and the prize. Next time I'll be more attentive.
