Clue Finders
This is how it works, there will be 20 contestants, which must pay a fee of 50 minerals, as soon as all the slots are full, the games will begin. How it works is i will post a code somewhere randomly in sen, it may be a new topic, it may be in a reply, once you get it you pm it to me, the last 50% of the people. Will be kicked off. The winner will get the 1000 mineral prize.
Good luck?

Theres 20 contestants, the first time, when 10 people find clues, the slower 10 get kicked off.
Ill do a meaningful post and then at the end just post the code,,,
[[Ex. =
Yes, SCMDRAFT Would be best for that.
{Code #1= potato66}

I'd sign up, but I gave all my minerals to Nuke.
I'll enter if someone gives me enough, or I manage to scrape enough up before the deadline..

There really is no set deadline, it's when we have a full 20 contestants.

The pot should be split up amongst the last 2. 2/3 going to the one who gets the last clue first, and 1/3 going to the second person who gets the last clue. That way you have a little higher odds. I might enter, I'm going to see who my competition is first, lol.
Edit: Just saw Legacy's post and came up with a solution sort of. Make a few random words of one of your meaningful posts boldened. Better yet, PM someone who's not in the game to do it so people can't just follow you around. Maybe make it bold and a different color so it stands out. That would make it a lot harder. I would like to team up and help you with this one.

I'll Hide It With BB Codes.

They could easily just monitor all your posts, that's why you need to use my idea, I PMed you with a little more detail about it.

As long as you have BBCode between the letters, I think it'll be hidden fine.

I read it, I dunno it's not liked you're a posting freak. Monitoring your posts say every 20 minutes or so would probably allow them to win easily. We could use some people that were obviously trustable, long time members that wouldn't screw around. That would make it more random and fun in my mind.

I'd post at night, and every 20 minutes, like i said before...
Dedication is the whole point of this contest as any other.
Plus, my main problem is the only one contestant right now.

You would tell them what the code was then they'd have to go find it??? I think it would work just fine like this
Random Member: I'm probably spamming blah blah blah, whatever, I am teh Über. Opinion opinion here here.
Then we ask them to change it so that they are helping us with the contest, and it becomes:
Random Member: I'm probably spamming blah blah blah, whatever, I am teh Über. Opinion opinion here here.
Would that not work?
Edit: Just saw Shorty's post, I don't think that's really any good, there has to be a certain amount of looking around and a tad bit of luck instead of just tracking all your posts... That's my opinion anyway.. If you don't like it my way I'll make my own game! Hehe.

... We'd choose someone without any friends? lol. I just think we have to have a certain trust factor for members of SEN here, I mean honestly it's not like we're all lying cheating thieves.. I know I'm not and I believe most of you aren't either, if I was given the duty to change one of my posts to include something like that then I wouldn't tell my friends, I'd want the game to be fun and fair.
