⚠️ This is a Limited Communication match! The players you are able to talk to will be assigned shortly.
Vote strategically to stay in the circle for as long as possible, while managing information and communications to get an advantage in MM2
Each player will be able to talk with 2 other people at the start of this MM.
These pair chats have been moved to Available Chats category and will be opened momentarily.
As the MM progresses, some players may get additional pair chats.
At the end of the MM, all players will also get to open one pair chat of their choice.
⚠️ Note that the rest of the pair chats will remain closed going into MM2.
The game will last a number of rounds, each lasting 24 hours. There is no pregame.
All players will receive a random ID ranging from 1 to 13. This ID is unique and won't change for the duration of the MM.
Players will be seated in the circle. Players will be able to communicate with the 2 people next to them.
Staying in the circle is the main objective of this MM.
✏️ Each round, all players vote for a player. You cannot abstain and you can vote for yourself. If you do not submit, you are assumed to vote for yourself and you lose 2 garnets as a penalty. You cannot go into negative garnets.
Garnet: You can spend a garnet to get an extra vote for any player. Any number of garnets can be spent in a round.
At the end of each round, all players with the most and all players with the least votes are eliminated from the circle.
These players cannot win a Token of Life.
The list of eliminated players is revealed, but not how many votes they or anyone else got.
After removing the eliminated players from the circle, new pair chats between new neighbors will be opened.
🔍 For example, if the circle is ... - A - B - C - D - .., the pair chats A-B, B-C and C-D are opened by default.
B and C get eliminated in the same round. They are removed and the circle becomes ... - A - D - .., and A-D pair chat is opened.
Eliminated players can still vote, but can now choose to abstain.
Garnet: All eliminated players will receive 2 garnets for every round they cast a vote while eliminated.
The game ends when there are at most 3 people left in the circle.
✏️ After that, all players will cast a final vote on either First or Last.
Votes of players still in the circle count 13x.
Garnet: Players can spend garnets on this vote, but these votes will count as 0.5x
✏️ Players can also submit the list of all players and their IDs.
For each correct guess you make, you will gain a starting bonus in MM2
For each incorrect guess you make, they will gain a starting bonus in MM2

EC: If the vote outcome is First, all players that got eliminated from getting the most votes are EC.
