The Mole Application

This is to apply for switza's The Mole ORG. The game is played on a forum- not over Skype or any other messaging services. The game plays out like The Mole TV competition show. Contestants work together in challenges* to try to add money to the group pot. One contestant (the mole) is secretly working with me to try to keep money from being added to the pot. It is the regular contestants' job to try to identify the mole. Every few days, there is a quiz on the identity of the mole. Whichever contestant scores lowest on the quiz is eliminated from the game. Some contestants will act suspiciously or intentionally fail challenges to try to draw other players from the correct identity of the mole and thus improve their chances of surviving the quizzes. The final quiz of the game will reveal the last player eliminated from the game (the mole's final victim), the winner of the game and the identity of the mole.



*The challenges (with a few exceptions) will have at least a 24-hour deadline, so there aren't requirements to be on at specific times of day. Each challenge generally has a reward towards the group pot for various levels of success and at times a penalty for failure. Most are straightforward, and the rules are fully explained to all contestants. In some cases, however, a challenge is not fully explained to all contestants, increasing its difficulty. In those cases, perhaps only selected contestants are informed of the full nature of the challenge, and must work towards a different goal than the rest. In rare instances, there are secret missions which only one, or none of the contestants are aware of. Some challenges require every member of the team to complete their task for the team to earn money, while others award money for each contestant that finished, regardless of the others. A common requirement is for the team to divide themselves into groups based on given attributes (e.g., "leaders" and "followers") before they learn what the task is.
