The Syndicate

NINE DAYS ~ OPEN BTSC

In this game, you must invest and donate your money for 9 rounds while avoiding being labeled a “miser.”

Each player will get ten $1 notes, ten $5 notes, four $10 notes, and one $50 note, allowing them to start the game with a total of $150. You will use your money to invest and donate over the course of nine rounds. When a round begins, players will PM me to make an investment and a donation. There’s no limit to how much money you may invest or donate. You can also refuse to invest or donate during a round. However, you cannot make change out of your money. You must pay an amount allowed by the banknotes you have available. Each round will last 24 hours. At the end of each round, the total amount invested and the total amount donated will be revealed. The player who invested the most and the player who donated the least will also be revealed. The amount they used will not be revealed.

The player who invested the most will be labeled the “Majority Shareholder,” and will receive a Garnet. The player who donated the least will be labeled the “Miser.” If multiple players invested the most money during a round, none of them will be labeled the “Majority Shareholder.” The label will instead go to the player who invested the next largest amount. However, if multiple players donated the least amount of money during a round, they will all be labeled “Misers.” The “Majority Shareholder” in a round cannot be labeled a “Miser,” even if they donated the least. The label will instead go to the player who donated the next lowest amount. Money and labels cannot be gifted or traded.

9 rounds will be played in this fashion, and the player who was labeled the “Miser” the most will lose, and the player who was labeled the “Majority Shareholder” the most will win. If multiple people win, they will each receive a Token of Life. Sole winners will receive two Tokens of Life, one for them and one for a player of their choice. If there is a sole loser, they will become the Elimination Candidate. If there are multiple losers, the winner(s) may choose the Elimination Candidate.

[mention]Spacedaisy[/mention] Did you buy your safety for two garnets?

I’m not sure what you mean.

I mean you have two less garnets than you should have and MP has two more than he should have so I was wondering if you gave him the garnets so he wouldn't pick you, or something.

Oh! No I gave him two garnets if he would throw the last game, in a specific way. It didn’t end up happening but he still ended up last so I felt it was right to give him the two garnets I offered.

Ayoo so Spacedaisy reminded me. If by the time I make my first donation and investment I receive a cumulative total of 23 garnets I will agree to intentionally lose and be the first elimination candidate

140 minutes to go, peoples.

@M Plus 7 @Spacedaisy

HONK!?

WTF.

Admittedly I was the miser in round one because I forgot to send in a PM. I guess those two did the same here?

They are married, after all

If I’d thought no one would invest I’d have invested a dollar lol

For real, lol

What happens if someone has the most shareholders AND misers. Do they win or lose?

They win, and the player(s) with the next-most Misers loses.

Golly damn.

I think MP thinks we’re playing golf and trying to get a lower score than the rest of us

Shout out to MP for dying for our sins.

The Round 4 results might be a tad late.

Perfect, that'll give MP time to forget to send his dollars in again.

"LIKE!"

Does MP think he can keep the money when this is over? CAN we keep the money?!

Prediction: MP will be a miser again, because he's been locked in a basement and replaced by Daisy.

Un-fuckin-real.

Oops, I totally thought I sent in this past round, checked in my sent items and all, but it was for last round.

As we're over halfway through the Match, I thought a status update was in order.

Let us know when he comes out of the closet

I'm just glad I squeezed a garnet out of this round tbh.

MP if you lose and pick me I will crush you underfoot.

OK good talk, love ya bud.

Kind of INH to give MP so much time to forget to send his money in.
