You're all All-Stars and you've all read the original rules set, so I'm not going to bother you with them. I'll just write the most basic rules in shorthand.
- Please stay active! We're returning to our original format of real-time weeks so you'll have plenty of time to get on and be updated throughout the game. I understand that this game will be starting in a very busy time in all of our lives (It will be running through Christmas), so I will make sure to provide you with the downtime you need. If you are going to be inactive for a period of time, please let me know.
- I'm a supporter of the first amendment and won't break up any verbal arguments, but please keep personal stuff out of it. Don't dig up pictures of people or something similar.
- Respect me as the host. EVERY twist, turn, competition, and week is fully 100% pre-planned in the Housecalls forum at this very moment. Telling me this game is rigged will NOT sit well with me.
- No cheating. You are not to give away answers to ANY challenge unless told otherwise.
- If you threaten to quit, I will delete your account. Point blank, no questions asked. Hey if you want to quit, I'm more than happy to help you with the first step. It's up to you to either A) Stay off the board and be expelled for inactivity or B) swallow your pride and sign up again.
Penalties
Continuously abusing the rules results in a four-step process.
Light Warning - Your first warning. I will simply warn you on AIM that you are crossing the line.
Stern Warning - This will be a much more serious warning and this time won't be done in private, I'll post it on the board.
Probation - You will be banned for one week and from that point on, be watched on like a hawk.
Expulsion - You will be taken out of the game.
