STORY: You are wandering around in a hot Egyptian desert, searching for pyramids to find treasure in them, but there's a thick sandstorm going on and you can't see much. You've already been wandering for hours, and the heat is almost unholdable. You drink some water. Then suddenly, it gets even hotter, and hotter, and even hotter, when suddenly you feel like you're gonna melt. The sandstotm stops, and you see an unnaturally red-hot pyramid on the horizon. There's a door right at the front. You walk towards it quickly, and the heat starts to get even more intense...
TERMS: Climb up: You win a challenge as the challenger Lost: You lose a challenge as the challenger Survived: You win a challenge as the challenged Knocked back: You lose a challenge as the challenged. You will dehydrate a lot when this happens. Dehydration: Your 'health'. Get it to 100 and lose some water. Burned: If you lose all of your water and lose another can of water, you literally burn, and are out of the game. You can re-join whenever you can, but your stats will be reset. Water: Your 'lives'. Getting Dehydration to 100 loses you one. Lose all and lose one again to get burned. Join in: Entering the game and by starting at the lowest level on a free spot. Claim: Claiming a free adjacent space above you. Challenge: To challenge a person to a game on this site of your choice. Each person will then have 3 hours to get a score as high as pssible, then preferably post a screenshot here. If you can't do that, you can type your score, but play fair, I'll know if you don't! Challenger: The person who challenges someone directly above adjacent to him to a game of his or her choice. Challenged: The person who got challenged to a game. He or she must win the challenge to get points and stay in position. Pyromid: Where the game takes place and the 'ladder' of the game. Rank: There are a lot of ranks, each with its own name. Increase in rank to get more water. Score: Increase your score to increase in Rank and get more water. Also dominate the game. Story: The level of the pyramid you're currently on. Get more points for higher stories.
RULES: You're in the Pyromid. It seems that the only thing that can help you survive and gain treasure is... winning games and by doing so, burning the people above you. By doing so, you can advance to the top. To burn someone, you challenge him to a game, and get a higher score than him to burn him if he has no water left. If he does have water left, you'll simply knock the opponent downward. You can only join in when one of the lower spots is free. This game is best explained by examples. Here's the pyramid. Proper view of the Pyromid is only in the post box. (where you type responses)
Here's an example of an occupied spot: [**noobie36**] Your username can only be twelve characters. Any more characters and your username will be shortened in the Pyromid. Only I will update the Pyromid. The game will only continue a new round if all lower level spots are occupied. To join in, you just say the unoccupied spot you wish to join in on the lowest level: Join in [4(letter)].
[1A] [2A][2B] [3A][3B][3C] [4A][4B][4C][4D]
You can claim any adjacent empty spot by just saying: Claim [spot]. Note that you can only claim something when: 1. All lowest level spots are occupied before the claim. 2. There is no player on the spot you want to claim. If that is so, you have to challenge that player and win first. 3. The spot you want to claim is 1 story above you.
You have to accept every challenge thrown at you. The higher you are on the Pyromid, the more points you'll gain for each challenge survived. You can't challenge a player if: 1. He or she is below you. 2. He or she is more than 1 story above you. 3. He or she is not directly adjacent to you.
You can only choose a challenge game if: 1. The game is on this site. 2. The game has a clear scoring system. 3. The game is endless. 4. The game does not have a certain maximum score.
Here's the points you'll gain for each challenge survived on each story, and the points you gain when you reach it when going up, also the dehydration per challenge survived or lost per story:
Here's the player sheet that will show during a challenge: Player: [**noobie36**] (player name) Score: 0000000 (Score. See above) Water: 05 (Like a lives system. Lose a challenge to lose a can of water. Get Dehydration to 100 to lose a can of water. If you're on 0 cans, you get burned, and your spot becomes free to claim by any adjacent player.) Dehydration: 000 (Like a health system. See above. Also, getting knocked back gets you 25 Dehydration! Rank: 30 [Lost Traveller] (Ranking up gets you 1 more unit of water per 2 ranks increased. See below.) Next: 0000300 (It gets harder to rank up with each rank upped. Try and see them all!) Won Challenged: 000 (How much games won as challenged) Won Challenger: 000 (How much games won as challenger) Max turns at bottom: 00 (The most challenges in a row you couldn't climb.) Max turns at top: 00 (The most challenges in a row you could manage to stay at the top. Your Rank divided by 2 is the amount of turns you need to stay in a row to get the Jackpot, which starts at 10000 points and increases by 5000 every time someone achieves it. Each player can only get it once. Except when they start a new game after getting burned, then they can get it again, once per new game.
To challenge, simply say: 'challenge [spot]!' or 'challenge [player name]! Only challenge adjacent ppl above you! To claim, simply say: 'claim [spot]!' Only claim empty adjacent spots above you! To join in, simply say 'join in [lower level spot]!' To report a player who doesn't follow the rules, simply say: 'report [player name] [good reason] [page number of violation]!' Here's the Pyromid.
NOTE: Do not copy the Pyromid and put your name in! Instead, just say 'join in [player name]!'
Do you have the guts to enter the Pyromid?
P.S. I'm not always active. Don't flame me if I'm out for a while. Also, the game is always paused as long as one of the lower spots is free. During that time, you can't claim a spot or challenge a person. I do not participate cause I don't feel like it. However, I can still join in like a normal player if one of the lower level spots is free. I can kick players out if they ignore the rules and/or don't play fair. You can't start a challenge without my clearance.
