In this new game, 3 players at a time try to get an awesome score by scoring high in games I assign them.
The more points they gain, the harder it will get for them to qualify, but the more points they'll gain if they do. To qualify for the next round you only need to gain the specified amount of points. If you can't manage to qualify, you die and need to wait 2 games before you can enter again.
If you qualify, you gain a set amount of points based on the current difficulty level.
But there is a way to get more points for the games you complete. There are medals! If you can manage to beat the qualifying score by a wide margin, you get the medal. It will show up in your sheet, and you'll gain more points for that round.
You start with a multiplier of 100, and your multiplier increases by 5 everytime you complete a game.
Disqualify (didn't meet minimum score): x0.00
Qualify (Met the qualifying score, only just): x1.00
Bronze (Met the score by a decent margin): x1.25
Silver (Met the score by a wide margin): x1.50
Gold (Got waay past the score): x2.00
Platinum (Guess I set the score too low?): x3.00
Diamond (You are a gaming god): x5.00
CROWN (Only awarded for [seemingly] impossible scores): x10.00

Normally, if you get disqualified, you're OUT.
However, if you gain 2000, ...

<sorry, my father needed some parts from my computer. Start reading in prev. post.>
...5000, 10000, 20000, 50000, and even 100000 points you get a 'Continue'. You can have as much Continues as you can manage to keep. What a Continue does is when you'd normally get disqualified, you instead just lose one of your Continues and get no points for that game. You get to move on to the next game.
Also, before I announce every game, I roll a die.
If I roll a 6, everyone gets double points for that game.
If I roll a 5, everyone's medal value is increased by x1.00 for that game, but only if they actually pass. If they use up a Continue, they still get no points.
If I roll a 2, a 3 or a 4, nothing happens.
If I roll a 1, everyone's medal value is cut in half for that game.

Here's the individual player sheet for players who are just starting off (I put this on my posts, there's no need for you to put it on your posts):
--GAMER SCORE--
Name: herpderp
Gamer Score: (total score) 000000
Difficulty: Super Easy [2 games left] (How hard it is to qualify and how many games you have until the difficulty increases. The counter won't count down for games you use a Continue on.)
Multiplier: 100 (Only increases if you don't use a Continue)
Continues: 0/0 (Continues left out of all Continues you've ever gained. Maximum 6 continues are earnable in total.)
Games won: 0 (Amount of games you qualified on so far.)
Medals: None (Amount of medals won by type. A type only shows up if you at least earned one medal of it.)

Now, I almost forgot to tell you that there's actually something to aim for.
You try to reach the High Scores!
Simple: You get a high score, you show up here!
You get the most medals of a type, you show up here!
You win the most games, you show up here!
For High Score and Game Wins, there's a top 3.
For Medals, there's only the highest score, one for each type.
The highscores are only updated when you LOSE. Until then, you won't enter the highscores.
Here's what the highscores look like if nobody has entered them yet:

--HIGHSCORES--
~High Scores~
1. <nobody>: 000000
2. <nobody>: 000000
3. <nobody>: 000000
~Game Wins~
1. <nobody>: 000
2. <nobody>: 000
3. <nobody>: 000
~Medals~
Bronze**. <nobody>: 000
Silver**. <nobody>: 000
Gold****. <nobody>: 000
Platinum. <nobody>: 000
Diamond*. <nobody>: 000
CROWN***. <nobody>: 00

Here's the sheet that I always put on my updates, it contains info on the bonuses, penalties, and the game:

Die: 4
Medals: Value x1.00
Game: OMGTHISGAMEISAWESOMELOL
Honored Player: <nobody> (This spot is for the person whose name shows up the most in the highscores. If it's a tie, the position on which the show up and/or the medal value they're in is the tiebreaker. If there still a tie then, the person in High Scores has the highest priority to show up here, then comes Game Wins, then Medals. If there's STILL a tie, the tied players will both show up here.

Sign-up sheet (Posted in all of my updates with an unoccupied spot. Once you see an empty spot, ENTER right away! Everyone is out for that spot! If a player gets ninja'd twice in a row [two players entering the same spot within a minute of each other] he or she will get the spot the second time instead of the ninja. Ppl who got ninja'd once will show up here. Your 'ninja point' will wear off after 2 games of not being ninja'd, or if you manage to enter. Or if you get ninja'd a second time. Copy this sheet and put your name in the place of the dots. By the way, N is for Ninja'd.):

--SIGN-UPS--
1. <...>
2. <...>
3. <...>
N. <nobody>

Tips 'N' Tricks:
Do not cheat, there's no fun in doing so, it makes the game pointless.
I like to see screenshots to prove your score. Just use the Print Screen button and upload the picture you made to a site like tinypic.com. Put the standalone image between [img] tags.
Stay nice and don't get frustrated. This game is for fun, not for flame wars. Don't make me call the Mod Fire Extinguisher on you!
Enter the sign-up spots as quickly as you can if you wanna play! Don't hesitate or you won't get in! Everyone wants to play, but only 3 can at a time.
The rules may seem complicated, but it's simple:
Win games, get medals, earn Gamer Score, reach the highscores! That's the whole goal of the game!
I like to keep players in sync. Therefore, every player plays the same game at the same time. The qualifying scores can differ for each person though: difficulty. If you just get into the game, your spot is reserved, but you need to wait until the next round.
If the game goes on for a long time, the same game can appear twice. I love to hear suggestions on which game we should play, but only if I'm out of ideas.
Only casual games will be played. Games with a certain maximum score will not be played.

Why are you reading this now? Enter while you still can!

Sorry for the bump, but I spent a lot of time writing this (maybe that's the problem? too long? You won't need all of the rules, such as the ninja rule, at the same time! It's NOT complicated at ALL! I give you a game, you play that game, get a high score in the game, get a high score here, dominate the scoreboards! That's it! Most of the rules are just there to make clear how exactly the system works, but you don't need them, really!) and I spent a lot of time thinking of this! If it goes to waste now, that's it, it could never come back again! Come on, just read the IMPORTANT rules and enter if you like this kind of game!

Ugh, this is my last bump because I'm actually not allowed to bump repeatedly.
Come on, you know what, even if you DON'T like it, at least give me suggestions on what could be better, even telling me that it's not gonna work is better than saying nothing and ignoring it!
Come on, at least try if you like this kind of game!
'Least you can do is tell me why not!
