IC 11: Electoral College Empty
PostSubject: IC 11: Electoral College   IC 11: Electoral College EmptyTue May 25, 2010 9:04 pm

Welcome, Leaders, to your next challenge: The Electoral College.

Typically during an election only 2 candidates compete. For this challenge all 8 of you will compete individually as your own candidate.

Each of you has 100 commercials PER PRIMARY ELECTION (excluding Super Tuesday) that you may use to help "sway" the people of each state to vote for you.
For Super Tuesday, you each have 300 commercials.

You may place all of your commercials in one state or spread them out amongst many.

The player who has the most commercials played in a state will win that state and its corresponding number of votes in the electoral college.

If no commercials are placed on a state by any player, the state goes to nobody.

If two or more players tie for the most commercials in one state, all those in the tie will forfeit the state and it will go to the next highest commercial placer. If the tie ends up knocking out everyone, the state will go to nobody.

The player with the most ELECTORAL COLLEGE points will win immunity.

If there is a tie the player that won the most states during the "Super Tuesday" primary will win. If there is still a tie the player that won the most states during Primaries 4, 3 and 1 (individually and respectively) will win.


The primaries will occur in roughly the same sequence as the U.S. democratic primaries in 4 rounds (all primaries after Super Tuesday are roughly divided in half). We ask, however, rather than taking 4 days to do this, that you each submit all of your commercial choices in 1 list. Remember, you get 300 commercials for Super Tuesday and 100 commercials PER EACH OTHER PRIMARY.

Copy and paste the list below into your Journal in a thread entitled "Electoral College Challenge" and after each state put the number of commercials you'd like to play there. You may place 0 if you want. The number of electoral college points each state is worth is in parenthesis.

IOWA (7)

Question:

So, we are doing this by rounds? So, I can only place my 100 states in:
FLORIDA (27)
IOWA (7)
MICHIGAN (17)
NEVADA (5)
NEW HAMPSHIRE (4)
SOUTH CAROLINA (8 )

And then whoever wins that can the place their next 100 states in the second one?

I'm lost. (As always)

actually, you're not. You're exactly right. You pasted Primary 1 (or round 1 as you called it) and you have 100 commercials for the first primary.

the second one (super tuesday) has lots more states, so you get 300 commercials for super tuesday.

The last two primaries are the same as the one you posted. 100 commercials for each.

Jackson, everyone plays in all 4 groupings.

You split up 100 commercials between all the states in Primary 1, 300 commercials between all the states in Primary 2... and so on

There needs to historically accurate weapons emoticons for Wang. I'd like to see a Wang use a sword or moose for once just like he did in history. Wang Kon, I think, was someone who united people (even if they didn't want to be united).

Uh... here's a question.

Do we ONLY have 100 commercials to use? As in... when spreading them out to the states per primary, do we only have 100 to use, whereas in the auction we had 1000 points but could "use" more than 1000 points when bidding?

Yes only 100 commercials in Primary 1

Only 300 in Primary 2

Only 100 in Primary 3

Only 100 in Primary 4

I don't understand why this is so hard for you people to understand?

No, he has a valid question. He's asking if like in the auction, we canbid more than 1,000 dollars. In other words, say we bid 56 on one state and 79 on another. If we lose the first state and lose, we still have that 56. But, if we win it, we lose the 56 and that means we would lose the 79 because we can't afford it any longer.

If we win the state with a bid of 56, that means we have 100-56 to work with making it impossible to win the next state with a bid of 79 because we don't have the money any longer.

You're not bidding on anything for Christ's sakes.

You are dividing your 100 up between what is there. The 100 only goes as far as 100 goes.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100

That is how many COMMERCIALS you have. That's IT. You can't go using more damn commercials than you HAVE! You have 100 in Primary 1. THAT IS ALL.

300 in Primary 2

100 in Primary 3

100 in Primary 4

You can't use more than what you have.

If you have 2 apples can you offer someone 3 apples!?!? NO.

Look!


We have 1,000 bucks are we were BIDDING over that amount. If we won the bid THEN those funds were subtracted from our max coins.

OBVIOUSLY, some people are confused and it's more than just me. And, every challenge, there are more than just me confused about this. There is rhyme or reason to these challenges and who wins them. We're just frustrated by the sheer randomness of it because we can't really strategize beyond guessing.

So, CONGRATS! YOU GET IT! You are in the elite group. So, fuck those who are trying to get it.

This is not an auction... you don't "bid" commercials.

Basically.. you have 100 commercials in the first primary.. and you divide them up between the states.

For example.. if you want Illinois, you could put 90 commercials on it. Then you'd have 10 commercials left over in that primary to put it somewhere else.
