if you reply with pong in response to a previous post saying ping, you win a point.

for every additional consecutive ping, the points awarded to the ponger is doubled.

you cannot pong any ping which you have posted. in the case of multiple pings, no one who pinged can pong

you cannot doublepost pings

you cannot post a pong if you have posted more pongs than pings

a ping only counts if it is used unambiguously (not in a discussion).

if you catch an illegal pong, post pang to claim double the points the original ponger would've received

peng may be used to nullify previous pings if there has been no activity for 24

only members over 1 month old and have 100 total posts may participate

wow many ms
also I am literally the first person to get points

vh · « **Reply #23 on:** October 12, 2014, 07:36:23 PM »

no, that violates the rule about multiple pings. (none of the pingers can pong it). the rule was written a bit ambiguously though, so we'll nullify that post

i've clarified the rules

edit: added rules

so if no one can pong without a ping, but a pinger cannot pong their own pings, then will we ever get a pong?

also can we have a scoreboard

you can post a pong without a ping.
you just can't post a pong if you have more pongs than pings
since everyone starts out with 0 of each, they do not have more pongs than pings
and therefore can post

right now, everyone but me, you, darvince, fiah, and anyone who ponged more than they pinged can pong
so basically hp, and anyone who hasn't posted.

working on the scoreboard, i think i might automate it someway.
