Battle #6~ The Battle for the Coup'd'etat

Let's first begin with an explanation of the Coup'd'etat. The person who wins the Coup'd'etat can over throw the Head of Household's decision following the veto ceremony. The only players that are immune from the Coup'd'etat are the HoH and GPOV winners in that given round - or any other players that are specified.

The Coup'd'etat can only be used in Round 5, 6, or 7. *Just so you're aware... this is Round 4. Coup cannot be used this round ;p*


Each of you has a platform thread in this forum.

The object of this game is to convince other houseguests to post

'I raise [enter name of the person who corresponds to the thread]'s platform'

Each time this is posted that players platform will raise 1 inch. The object of the game is to be the player that is elevated the highest off the ground by the end of 72 hours.

EXAMPLE: So say Molly wanted to post for Rachel, she would proceed to Molly's thread and post 'I raise Rachel's platform'


Now for the cutthroat part of the competition...

In addition to aiding your friends, you can hinder your enemies by posting

'I lower [enter name of the person who corresponds to the thread]'s platform'

EXAMPLE: If Kathy doesn't want Tony to win she would go to Tony's thread and post 'I lower Tony's platform'

[Mr. Mitsuko]

To make things even more vicious and scandalous... you can Raise and Lower players platforms in teams.

To raise your platform 20 inches higher have two different houseguests post within the same minute.

To raise your platform 30 inches higher have three different houseguests post within the same minute.

To raise your platform 40 inches have four different houseguests post within the same minute.


To lower enemies platforms use the same formula...

2 players lowering within the same minute deducts 20 inches.

3 players lowering within the same minute deducts 30 inches.

4 players lowering within the same minute deducts 40 inches.


If 5 people + posted within one minute 40 inches is still the highest that can be achieved (whether it be lowering or raising)

[Mr. Mitsuko]

Any limits on posting to avoid spamming?

[Mr. Mitsuko]

One post per minute.

Anyone caught posting more then that will be punished severely

Can we lower someone's platform to be under 0 inches? Or is 0 the minimum?
