For projects that haven't quite taken off yet, I'm gonna have to say no for now. It was the same with BRS and Squigly- no go until they become official.

So until the anime airs, I'm afraid that anyone from Billiards Parade is gonna have to wait.



One waifu per round. Exception being if you start the game late- you can claim as many waifus as there have been rounds (provided you do not exceed your limit).
e.g. You start playing on Jan 25th. Since we'll be into Round 4 at that point, you would be able to claim up to 4 waifus (again, only if you qualify).



I am well aware and shall be keeping an eye out for that- particularly for any accounts created recently.



I think that was probably Art's call during his game- not mine.

For myself, I consider them all to be one and the same- you claim BRS- that includes Mato, Insane BRS, and both from the OVA and series.



Banned.

YOU SHALL CLAIM THREE WAIFUS OR YOU SHALL DIE UNTIL TOTALLY DEAD


Also, please clarify upon thy query; are the characters named? Licensed? Copyrighted?

The rules state that they must be of commercial mocodity.

Since I've made the thread, I've had it stuck in my head.

We'll just have to wait and see, in true scientific method.

You're going to have to learn how to deal with things not going your way and quit the passive-aggressiveness.

Why have grudges when you can have waifus.






As a special celebration of your namesake, you need to>>

Read the rules and try again.

Rules have been slapped into das OP.



It removes the need to spam in order to qualify, and allows more people to participate.

The only downside I see is that it allows some idiots to play- but that was not uncommon before, either.



Nope. Having a Reclaim has no negative effects- it simply means you automatically get to keep one of your claims, and move toward your character limit faster.

The reason why you don't remember any reclaim rounds before is because reclaims have always been a come-and-go feature. Waar did it whenever he felt like it, and during his later games they were chosen by RNG. This game is the first since Waar quit were Reclaims have happened.

Also, the rules are pretty much the same as last time, but I'll edit them into the OP here sometime tonight once I get back from work.

Still debating upon implementing a special NTR feature. Maybe you guys could take a vote on it.

Rounds

The rounds shall begin on the following dates.

Round 1: Dec 20th.
Round 2: Dec 27th.
Round 3: Jan 3rd.
Round 4: Jan 17th.
Round 5: Jan 31st.

All rounds shall start around 8-9 pm. MST (GMT-7)


And, Cruz, I got rid of the post count requirement in an effort to increase (or at least maintain) participation. Given the dwindling activity in general, I thought that the best course of action.

Pardy my tardy, but here's the discussion topic, serving as confirmation that the game shall come into existence within this realm. (Wayne, fell free to tally-ho the new list topic- I'll relay to Waar to get it nice and sticky).

Actual Game shall be posted on the day of.





RRRRRUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRUUUUSSS


Please read thoroughly. I will be checking.


Claims

-Each user is allotted a minimum of three(3) characters.

-And can get an additional one for either:

Every two(2) years that the user has been part of the forums,

or

Every 500 posts,

for a maximum of five(5) total claims.

-Any established fictional character from any published work is claimable. Anime, Videogames, Comics, Manga, Hentai, Webcomics, Books, etc. If you can buy it, you can claim a character from it.

e.g. Emily the Strange, is- indeed- claimable. Even though she's naught but a mascot- she is of published and purchasable material and is an established character.

-Multiple incarnations of the same character, however, cannot be claimed separately. Timelines, alternate dimensions, cloning- whatever the cause- they all count as a singular character.

e.g. Urashibara Ruka, although appearing as both a girl and a trap, cannot be claimed twice.

-Claims are to be made by stating the full name of the character, true/alternate identity if they have one*, and the full name of the series from whence they came.

*Exception to series within their debut season.

-Side/minor characters can be claimed, provided they,

have a name

and/or

show up at least three(3) times throughout the series

e.g. Himeko Tachibana, although having only one spoken line throughout both seasons of K-ON, is a named character.

-Real people can't be claimed. That includes other users, celebrities, supermodels, and people who don't even look real.

Reclaims

-During Rounds 4 and 5, the first six(6) people in each respective round are eligible for a Reclaim during the Summer 2015 game.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN

At every game, all your claims are reset, meaning you must begin anew.

However- should you be one of the lucky few to get a Reclaim, you get to keep one of your characters; carry one over from the previous game.

-This must amount to a total of twelve(12) different users.

So, although you may be among the first six in both rounds, you cannot get two Reclaims. That Reclaim spot will instead go to the next user in line.

Rounds

The rounds shall begin on the following dates.

Round 1: Dec 20th.
Round 2: Dec 27th.
Round 3: Jan 3rd.
Round 4: Jan 17th.
Round 5: Jan 31st.

All rounds shall start around 8-9 pm. MST (GMT-7)

They begin when I announce it within the game thread itself- so keep an eye out for that.

Round 5 lasts until the next game. Summer 2015.


Divorces

-You can divorce one of your claims, should ever your affections be swayed you heartless bastard.

-After divorcing, you cannot make another claim until full four(4) days/96 hours after you've made the divorce.

-The divorced character cannot be claimed for a full two(2) days/48 hours. To give them time to pick up the SHATTERED PIECES OF THEIR BROKEN HEART.

You monster.

-Each player has a maximum of three(3) divorces per game. Philandering knave.

-Rule Check: Do not talk about Rule Check.


Important (Things that are often ignored/misunderstood)

EACH WAIFU GAME HAS THREE(3) THREADS DEDICATED TO IT; GAME, LIST, AND DISCUSSION.

-THE GAME THREAD IS WHERE CLAIMS AND DIVORCES ARE MADE. NOTHING ELSE. NOTHING MORE.

-THE GAME LIST THREAD IS WHERE ALL THE ALREADY CLAIMED CHARACTERS ARE LISTED. FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE. SO THAT YOU MAY KNOW WHO'S ALREADY BEEN CLAIMED. SO YOU DON'T TRY TO CLAIM THEM. BECAUSE SOMEONE ELSE OTHER THAN YOURSELF WHO IS NOT YOU HAS ALREADY DONE IT BEFORE YOU DID. SO DON'T TRY.

-THE GAME DISCUSSION THREAD IS WHERE ALL OTHER THINGS ABOUT THE GAME ARE POSTED. YOU DO NOT POST YOUR CLAIMS/DIVORCES IN HERE. YOU POST EVERYTHING ELSE THAT IS NOT A CLAIM/DIVORCE IN HERE.

-ALL CLAIM POSTS CANNOT BE EDITED WITHIN THE FIRST SIX(6) HOURS AFTER THE START OF A ROUND. FOR ANY REASON. ANY POSTS THAT HAVE BEEN EDITED WITHIN THAT TIME PERIOD WILL VOID THEIR CLAIMS. IF IN DOUBT, MAKE A NEW POST.

Become a killer. I'm more of an S than an M.


Would you rather live the rest of your life with no knees or no elbows?

'Tis simply a testament to our impeccable and very perfect taste in waifus.

What a coincidence.

I love myself way more than I care about you as well.

Getting nothing, since I never ask for anything.

Getting everything, because I have lots of folks to shop for.


-Standard kid/toddler stuff for nieces and nephews.
-A pair of light up, water pulse speakers for one of my sisters.
-Entire run of Legend of Korra for another sister.
-DVD of Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar festival for my dad, along with Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.
-Pocketwatch for my best friend, engraved with his ancient family coat of arms.


That's it for now. Still got three other sisters and my mum to find something for.

I've had something of a raucous and difficult year- if I cannot find solace in abusing imaginary power, WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO LIFE.

Luck.

Because- even if you are the most talented- a stroke of bad luck can just fuck all the things up.



Would you rather everyone be "fine", or just you yourself and three others of your choosing be incredibly happy, and the rest of the world be mediocre?

Ninja'd by both answer and surprisingly similar questions.



I'd rather suffer together.


Would you rather join the Avengers or the Justice League?

Sorry, but the game has been officially delayed until next week.

You'll know when the time comes when I create a "Waifu Game XIII" thread.

Waifu game is officially reset to the 20th of December. 2000h, MST (GMT-7).

If you haven't called in for your reclaims yet- you have until then.


Until noted otherwise, assume that the rules shall be the same as last time.

Unless I decide to make it a sorta Black Friday Lightning Round/ Do All Claims within one 24-hour period




...





Also- as a Christmas present to myself- I am preemptively giving myself Gogo Tomago from Disney's Big Hero 6*. This also counts as the original Marvel run, despite drastic changes.




That'll be all.


*

If at all.

The overall lack of enthusiasm- combined with my own job taking its toll (long hours, 6/7 days per week)- isn't a particularly strong motivator.

Anyways- I'm not sure if I should start the game tomorrow, as originally planned- or a little later, to give me some more time to prepare. Last two weeks of work just totally worn me down.
