Competition Ideas
Given the fact that the game runs on algorithm and +1/-1 commenting, as well as a 3-person nomination, there are currently two powers I can think of inventing. The rewards would both have to be based on the honor system at this point, but with some help from the Tengaged team they might be able to enforce it.
At this moment, the competitions will have to be run from within the game. That means that the players have to invent games, approve of the ideas, and then enforce its rules fairly. The games would have to run using the comments for now, unless someone gets creative.
The winner can get one of two powers.
<b>Veto</b>
The good ol' fashioned Veto. Because there are three nominees and no way to replace them, whoever wins the Veto declares one of the nominees (which can be oneself) as safe. No one can vote him or her as a 2 and/or 3 point eviction vote. Again, that runs on the honor system, and if people were to conspire they could still evict the person. But if they were to, it would cause witch hunts and drama that a Big Brother game such as this needs.
The problem is that it makes the Veto useless. And it just wouldn't be very effective at this point unless it's enforced by the computer, so I would consider this game a way to test people and how they stick to the rules you all put together, which of course means there are reasons to vote untrustworthy people negatively instead of at a whim.
<b>Crown</b>
Because the regular HoH power is obsolete here, the next best thing is a Crown. I consider this a way to ensure your ass gets kissed. Essentially, if you win the Crown, your posts for the day cannot be in the negatives. Tengaged could easily enforce a Crown which blocks the negative button from working for a day, but in the meantime it's still a test of everyone's honor system.
These are all ideas. I'd love to know what everyone thinks.
