Posted: 9/12/05 at 8:10pm

I found this game at imdb.com where they were playing the game but with Clue the movie (best movie ever), after playing the game there I thought this would be perfect for into the woods, but unfortunately the into the woods board there is abandoned (before you ask they don't do broadway but into the woods was on TV once). So I decided to put it here. Here are the rules.

For each character you take off a point and give that point to a different character. Once a character reachs zero they are knocked off and the last man (or woman) standing wins. You are allowed 1 vote a day each.
Right now we'll just do the main characters.

Baker(10)
Baker's Wife (10)
Witch (10)
Jack (10)
Little Red Riding Hood (10)
Cinderella (10)
Cinderella's Prince (10)
Rapunzel's Prince (10)
Rapunzel (10)
Narrator (10)
Mysterious Old Man (10)

I'll start off

Baker(10)
Baker's Wife (10)
Witch (10)
Jack (10)
Little Red Riding Hood (10)
Cinderella (10)
Cinderella's Prince (10)
Rapunzel's Prince (10)
Rapunzel (9) (-)
Narrator (10)
Mysterious Old Man (11) (+)

To anyone just joining us the game is over and the witch has won. The rankings are on page 25.

We have started the second round here

I wonder why nobody's playing . . . am I the only one who's seen Into the Woods?

jonart you can't add two points, you have to add one and take away a point, let's see you gave a point to cinderella's prince so you have to take away a piunt from someone, please choose who you want it to be.

You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

I must be slow because I am not understanding how this is supposed to work at all.

quickie version of the rules; pick a character you like, add a point after their name, subtract that point from a character you don't like.
