How to play the game
There are 8 columns and 12 rows, in total 96 cells.
One cell is the intersection of a column and a row, for example cell F2 ( column F row 2)
There are 27 prizes scattered throughout the matrix and your goal is to select which cell you want to own.
You can own 1 (one) cell each day, so if you start from day 1, you could be owning 7 (seven) cells at the end of Day 7
In case the matrix fills before Day 7, the matrix will be updated with more columns and rows and the prizes will grow in number. This is what I call a scalable matrix.
How can I trust that the game is fair and transparent ?
I understand if you won't trust me, that is why I have came up with this, optional, solution.
The matrix already has been generated and to ensure that I won't change the placement of the prizes, I have uploaded the matrix on my Google Drive
The excel file is archived and password protected to ensure that people won't cheat.
The password will be released when the results after Day 7 are announced.
This way, if you feel the need to verify me, you can download the file at any time, and when the password is revealed you can check the fairness and transparency of the game.
If the need of adding more rows or columns to the matrix arises, I will upload the excel file, archived and password protected, and the password will be the same password as the first file, thus giving you the change to compare the 2 files.
I hope this sounds fair enough for everybody, and I do realize that some people won't like to download a file from an unknown source, and that is fine by mine, I respect that.
Until I find a better way to make the game transparent and fair, this is what I have to work with this season.
What is a valid and invalid answer
Let's take this matrix as an example (This is from 1st Season Day 6):
For example
"I choose B3"
is a valid answer because the cell has a question mark (?) in it
An invalid answer would be
"I choose A10"
it's not valid because that cell, in this example, is owned by @novaatebatman
And invalid answer is also if you answer after I comment CUTOFF Time and also if you select a cell that another player already selected.
Also, it is your responsibility to read other players comments, or just to search ( Ctrl+F) the comments on the post page to be sure nobody else already chose your cell that you want to own.
Having said that I will do my best to rectify any mistakes that the players make and reply to their comments with instructions.
Thank you for playing, next post will be on the 2nd of August 2017 at around 1:30 AM (UTC+1 - my timezone)
CUTOFF TIME, Working on Day 6. Do not post your answers here.
Please wait for Day 6 post, which will come shortly. Thank you.
