People, games and stories

A collection of party games you play by ear, a village stage, storytelling, and

community events. Reach it all from Village life > More to do > People, games

and stories, or the /pg command. Everything here pays a small, capped amount of

ln point (never ln credit); the real prizes are titles, trophies, and a place on

the champions board.

Party games

Echo Match (/echo): the server plays a growing pattern of real sounds, one at a

time. You listen, then answer in order (for example: bell birds horn). Getting

it right grows the pattern next time; your best streak is kept.

Name That Sound (/soundguess): one real sound plays. Type what it is.

Sound Bingo (/bingo, /bingoclaim): join a shared round to get a card of 9

sounds. A new sound is called every 14 seconds. Claim bingo once 3 of your 9

have been called.

Word Chain (/chain): the whole village keeps one long chain of words going.

Your word must start with the last letter of the one before it, and cannot

repeat a word already used.

Twenty Questions (/twenty, /qask, /answer, /qguess): think of something and let

others ask yes-or-no questions, or ask somebody else's secret and try to guess

it.

Charades by Ear (/charade, /charadeguess): pick a secret word and give up to 3

real-sound clues instead of speaking; everybody else guesses.

Reaction Round (/react): start a round, wait for the call, and be the first to

react.

Tug of Words (/tug): two teams (assigned by your name) race to call out the

most distinct words during a 3-minute round.

Rhyme Time (/rhyme): answer with a word that rhymes with the word of the

moment. A new word comes every 90 seconds.

The stage and clubs

Spotlight Stage (/perform): put on a short act (a description plus one sound).

The village applauds during the week; the most-applauded act wins a trophy.

Comedy Night (/joke): tell one joke a week. The village votes for the funniest.

Karaoke Corner (/karaoke): you are shown a short line; sing it back within 20

seconds to keep your streak going.

Open Verse (/verse): write a short poem or caption on the week's theme; the

village votes for its favourite.

Storytelling

Story Circle (/addline or /storycircle): the whole village writes one story together,

one sentence at a time. A chapter is archived and a new one begins every 60

lines.

Campfire Nights (/campfire): a shared evening event that lights every so often.

Come sit by the fire while it burns for a short while.

Message in a Bottle (/bottle write, /bottle find): write a short message for a

stranger and cast it out, or find one that somebody else wrote. You are told

when your own bottle is found, even if you are offline at the time.

Community events

Icebreaker Meetups (/icebreaker): get matched with somebody online for one

friendly question; you both answer and both receive a small reward.

Community Spotlight (/nominate): nominate a neighbour and say why; the village

votes, and the week's spotlight gets a trophy.

Debate Night (/debate <name>): challenge somebody online to a short debate on a

random topic. Both write an argument, then the village votes.

Games Night: a surprise round the village throws every so often (Sound Bingo or

Tug of Words), announced to everyone when it starts.

Champions board and star of the village

The champions board (/champions) remembers recent winners across every system

above and how many times you have won. The Applause Meter (/starmeter) is a

monthly leaderboard; whoever is on top at the end of the month is crowned Star

of the Village and receives a trophy.

Staff

Staff can clear a stuck global round (Twenty Questions, Charades, Sound Bingo,

Debate Night, Tug of Words) from the People, games and stories menu.
