Option 2 had the most votes; I will be running purely on the first game I see in the lobby whenever I log on to play
Since I have a bit of free time coming up and I want a challenge, here it is, my open challenge to you guys... and if you want to do it with me then feel free
Next round I will either:
- Run on one setup only (from the selection comped by the trophy winners of this round) and join the first gold heart table of it I see (or make my own table of the setup for an entire round if there are none open) regardless of who is already there or who joins after I do. I will only leave a table if it goes to page 2 of the lobby or if it is evident nobody is joining and another game is filling above.
- Run by joining the first gold heart table (regardless of setup) I see open regardless of who is already there or who joins after I do--if none are open and I need to play then I will create games for each setup comped (i.e. for the first time this happens I create a game of the first setup on the round page, for the second time this happens I create a game of the next setup on the round page, etc, again regardless of who joins after I make the table). I will only leave a table if it goes to page 2 of the lobby or if it is evident nobody is joining and another game is filling above.
- Run entirely on a secret alternate account, but on my own terms (although I did this already 2 months ago with Bogmire ( https://epicmafia.com/user/683015#/ ) in round 675, which took place in early January of 2018). I have a different secret alt ready to go for next round if this option is selected. Regardless of my placing at the end of the round, I will out the alt at the end of the round.
This challenge will be done on ONE ACCOUNT ONLY. For this challenge, I will play all of my hearts in the round regardless of how well or how poorly I do, but regardless of which set of stipulations gets selected, I retain the right to play whenever I decide to log onto the website (while still following whichever set of stipulations I end up doing). Once I log on, I will have to play the first gold heart game I see if it is option 2, and the first gold heart game I see of the setup I'm running on if it is option 1 (but I retain the right to log on whenever I want to). If option 1 is selected, a new poll will happen to vote on which setup I have to run on at the start of Day 1 when all of the setups are put up. I will try to get the trophy winners of this round to make their decisions before Day 1 begins to speed up this process if possible and if this option is selected.
Here's the part where you all come in: You get to decide which option I go with. Use the poll to determine which stipulations I take on for next round. I will not vote in the poll.
Voting will lock on Day 1 of the new round, at which point I will screenshot the totals in the poll and go with whatever has the most votes. If two ore more options are tied, I will post a video of me using a random number generator to decide which option I will end up going with.
The purpose of this is either to see if it really is possible to trophy on any one setup with the first available table seen for every game, to see if it really is possible to do the same but on the first setup available in the lobby, or to provide myself with a fun challenge similar to what I did with Bogmire in round 675. Depends on what you guys select.
I will also mention that in the event something comes up before or during this challenge or I suddenly have no time to complete the challenge, I will start it again in another round, and I will follow the most-voted same set of stipulations.
Looking forward to see what you guys select for me; we'll see how well (or how poorly) I'll do...
