I don't want to die without any scars. ― Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club
In this game, you must kill your fellow forum-members by posting. There is a set list of candidates - so you'll have to explicitly join - who all get the username of a member PM'ed when the games begin. The username you receive is your target.
To kill a target, you must:
post directly after them
there can be no posts of other alive participants after their posts for 30 minutes
your assassination attempt cannot be a reply to a post made before the start of the game
When 30 minutes have passed, and there were no posts after your own, you must PM your victim and me in the CC. When I confirm the kill, you have successfully assassinated your target. Your target must then give you the name of their target.
Examples
Spoiler
Examples when an assassination is succesful:
Gandalf posts something about kittens. Snape posts directly after Gandalf, his target. 30 minutes pass and no one else has replied to the thread. Gandalf is dead!
Gandalf posts something about kittens. Snape posts directly after Gandalf, his target. Katniss posts something about dogs. Katniss is however not a player in the game, so her post doesn't count. 30 minutes have passed and no other player of the game has replied after Snape. Gandalf is dead!
Examples when an assassination is unsuccessful:
Gandalf posts something about kittens. Snape posts directly after Gandalf, his target. Sherlock joins the conversation and posts after Snape within 30 minutes. Darnit! Gandalf lives.
Gandalf posts something about kittens in a hidden forum (like private+). Snape posts directly after Gandalf. Snape can wait 365 days for all I care, but Gandalf lives to see another day.
The Doctor posts something about Harriet Jones. Snape posts directly after the Doctor. The Doctor is however not Snape's target - Gandalf is. The Doctor lives to see another day.
Gandalf posted something about kittens in March. The game starts somewhere in August. Snape posts directly after Gandalf. Gandalf's post however is invalid, since it was made before the game. Gandalf lives!
When an assassination is successful, you must PM your target with the proof that you killed them. Your victim must then send you the username of his target: that will be your next target.
Example: Snape successfully kills Gandalf. He PMs Gandalf with a link to the crime scene (the post which killed Gandalf), referring to the time-stamps as proof. Gandalf then replies with the name of his target - The Doctor. Snape must now kill The Doctor.
Additional rules In this game you can't be a camper. Don't go hiding and not post anything.
You must post at least twice everyday in a non-hidden forum
If you fail to post twice within 24 hours, you are eliminated. Your killer will receive your target.
You cannot tell people you're already dead or alive
If you kill your target with a gif related to that user, you get a bonus point.
Every PM you send in regards to killing must include me, the gamemaster, as a CC.
This topic is a safehaven
You cannot prevent your own murder by posting after your killer!
Everyday I will post an update with how many kills have already been made (not who have been killed, for that remains a secret).
After 2 weeks or whenever everyone except one assassin is dead, the game ends. The kills will then be revealed along with the winner(s)! If there are multiple survivor, the assassin with the most kills is the winner.

My work schedule is a bit hectic and I have other personal stuff going on, but I DID IT

Like Junjie said, you can participate to get the participant award, but if you know you won't be able to be online that much, prepare to be disqualified or killed first...... or not! We never know. Our God, Death, has his ways

So just got word from the powers-that-be that the fourth annual hunger assassination games have begun, and I just thought in the spirit of fairness I'd let you all know...
