We have 6 in, I will wait until tomorrow to begin in case anyone else wants to join! So this game can be played in 3 ways: Classic Mode, Elimination Mode, Tournament Mode, and Season Mode. We'll begin with the Classic Mode first for a few games so that if this game is successful, we can move on to the other 3 options. Classic Mode Rules: We'll have 6-8 players playing starting tomorrow, and you'll all playing against each other. I have made a wheel and the wheel will consist of 8 categories: Artists, Songs, Albums, Hot 100 history, Billboard 200 history, Genre, Wild Card, and Crown. Here's the link to the wheel: shar.es/1HTjz5I'll have more rules coming later, I have to do some things real quick, I'll be back! Check out the wheel while you're waiting!

All right, looks like we'll start with 7 contestants. Official Rules: To determine who goes first, I will ask you to pick a number between 1 and 100. Type your answer in the reply section. Once all 7 of you have rung in, I'll reveal the number and the order you all will go in. Whoever was closest goes first, whoever was farthest goes last. When it is your turn, use the link in the description to spin the wheel! Now we will play this game on an honor system, and I am trusting you to tell me exactly what you landed on. NOTE: IF YOU DO NOT TELL ME WITHIN 24 HOURS WHAT YOU LANDED ON, YOU WILL BE ELIMINATED FROM THE GAME. Once you tell me, I will reveal your question in that category (either Songs, Artists, Albums, Genres, Hot 100 History, or Billboard 200 history). You will have 24 hours to reply. If your answer is correct, you fill in a section of your Crown meter and you get to spin again! Get it wrong or not answer in time, your turn is up and the next person goes. If you land on the Wild Card section, you get to choose the category you want to play to fill up a section. Land on the Crown and your crown will be filled up and you get to play for one of the categories crowns! Because there are 8 categories, I am making the crown section into 4 parts. Answer 4 questions correctly and you get to play for one of the categories! Select the category you want to play for and you will get the question to clinch it. Answer correctly, you've won one of the categories! Answer incorrectly or not in time, and either your Safety barrier will break or your crown meter will empty and you'll have to fill it all the way up again. I will give you all 2 lifelines and a safety barrier to use each game: The first lifeline is Double Dip. After I give you the question, you may be unsure of the answer and you might need to make a few guesses. When answering, type in that you want to use Double Dip and give your first answer. If it's wrong, don't worry! You get another chance. Answer incorrectly the second time however, your turn is over. The other lifeline is Skip. If you're unsure of the question, you may Skip it and you will get another question to answer in the same category. However, there is a catch. If you use this lifeline, you will not be allowed to use Double Dip to help if you still have it and your Safety Barrier (if you still have it) will be inactive if you use it on a Crown question. And finally, your Safety Barrier. This lifeline applies when you're playing for a crown. If you answer the crown question incorrectly and you have the Safety Barrier active, your Safety Barrier will break, but your crown will not empty. However, when you answer a Crown question incorrectly again, your Crown will empty and you will have to start over again. To make the game fair for everyone, you can win up to 2 categories per turn. But remember, the turn sequence is based on your number selection! (evil laughter) The first contestant who captures all 6 categories is the winner!
All right, any questions? Any suggestions to make the game better? Let me know before we begin!

What if someone isn't online when it's their turn to go? Good question... uh, should I make the time limit somewhere between 12-24 hours? I'm assuming most people here go on the forum at least once a day?

I'm assuming most people here go on the forum at least once a day? I like the limit idea. If someone doesn't tell you what they landed on by the time their limit is up, then they will be eliminated. I think 24 hours is a good idea due to time zones.

All right, the wheel is working, the rules are out, and we have our contestants! All system go. The sun hasn't died. Deep in my bones, straight from inside. (Little song reference there to get your blood pumped for this game!) The game will begin either tomorrow or Sunday depending on how long it takes everyone to ring in! To decide the order in which you'll all be going, each one of you pick a number between 1 and 100. Closest goes first and so on until I reach the one that was the furthest away. That person will go last. I assume you've all read the rules, so without a further ado... PICK YOUR NUMBER. Devil Marlena Nylund surfy trustypepper Adel is not icant Flip popstop Mikey

2 people did not answer with their number, thus they are eliminated from the game. The number I was thinking of was 73 and that means the order will go like this: 1. Flip2. Adel is not icant3. trustypepper4. surfy5. MikeyFlip, you go first! Spin the wheel and tell me the category you landed on! Wheel: shar.es/1HTjz5
