Events

Sudoku
The Minute Game
Death-tank
Simple - depending on number of players, everyone can just play at once

Neil, do you have Death Tank available at your house? How many players max? -- Marc

Death tank can do up to 7 players but as there are 8 competitors I propose a two-tiered competition. (8 is a convenient power of two which will make doing knockouts a lot easier right?). All eight competitors will be randomly split into two groups of four. Then each group of four will play five consecutive rounds of death tank. (The rounds are fairly short-lived and five is enough time for someone to save up enough to buy a Death's Head which makes it more fun :) The top two scorers from each of the groups will then form a new group of four who will play 10 rounds for the final. Before the final will be 5 play-off rounds consisting of the two bottom players from each group so that we can get a complete ordering. In the event a draw (not sure if that's possible or not) the players who have equal scores will play a one-round sudden death to decide who is better.

Singstar
Some kind of complicated system where you have home and away matches so that you get to choose the song on home matches or something

BTW - Abi is obsessed with SingStar and she's bought the Rocks! disc again despite taking two of them back for not working. This one seems ok for now though so with we've now got all of them. -- Neil

Neil at work

(I've moved the SingStar Song List to save space on this page as it's no longer relevant)

Typing
Take it in turns typing up a letter and deduct marks "according to the level of" accuracy?

Deduct marks for accuracy? How ironic -- Marc

Is that ok? -- Neil

I"ll b grate, woo hoo! - bAi

- ooh actually could we have an accurate punctuation test as well? We could combine it with spelling bee idea. I'll get Esty to set the questions.

We could type in Esperanto! Bonege! ahem..well...just a suggestion.. -- Elín

Ho jes, tiu sugesto plaĉas al mi! -- Neil

Wow, I was looking for a program that we could use to test typing speed and there's one called "Klavaro" which is Esperanto for keyboard! It's even been translated into Esperanto, how cool is that?
