10 players, each have ten points, one player randomly selected to start, in their turn, they must subtract a point from another player, then they can pick any other player to go next.

In this game...
You may not pick someone you have already picked before,
You also have one turn where you can pick yourself to go again,
Once you have no one else to pick, you're not out of the game, but, you cannot make any more moves to affect the outcome.

If you pick someone you have not picked, and that person has no one else to pick then the turn automatically bounces back to you, and you may go again, but keep in mind the first rule.

Once you run out of points, you are ultimately out of the game.

There's also another element to this game, THE BANK!
All subtracted points will go in there, if you eliminate another player from the game by subtracting their last point, then you get every point that's in the bank currently.
But there's another way of getting points from the bank...stealing!

To steal from the bank, simply pm me the amount of points you would like to steal from it's current inventory.

The points will help you in this matter, if in case, you lose every one of your current points, the points you stole will automatically be your score.

However, the gaping dissapearance of that amount, will appear immediately after you steal them, and until the stolen points become your score, other players can suspect other players of stealing it, and if the majority of players at that time suspect you, then the points you stole will go back in the bank, and the amount you stole will be subtracted from your current score.

So, hopefully you understand the rules, care to play? Then sign up right here.

Did you make this up yourself or did you get from somewhere else?

Either way, it sounds interesting. I'm in.

I got it from a challenge on endurance, but only the ten lives thing and the rule that makes a difference in who you can and cannot pick, the other qualities were just drastic tamperings.

You are in, 9 spots left.

I'm in, but I'm a little confused about stealing.

Is there any luck involved, 'cause you're making it sound like all you have to do is say you'd like to steal a certain number of points and you automatically get it.

Adding to what HHFOV said above, the stealing confuses me too. If you can steal whenever you like, won't the game just go on forever?

Also you said once you were out of points you were ultimately out of the game, but how can you be if you could just steal and have points?

1. You can only steal what's in the bank, maybe not all of it, but it can't be outside the current amount in it. Just to clarify.

2. Stealing is only available if you're still in the game, once you do run out of points, you're out of the game, got it?

But suspicion may arise once the points are gone, and as the players get smaller, that may be harder to avoid.
