King of the Roof

There is a game called King of the Roof. It is a rather simple game, you go to the top of the library and try to shove others off. The last person standing on the roof is declared the winner.

If there are a large number of people to play then it is run in heats. There may be game of 5 people with one surviving, then another game of 5 people with 1 standing. Then these 2 survives face off and whoever is left is the winner.

I have been running some games, the entry fee is one silver (250 gold coins) which gets doubled by me. The winner gets 75% of the silver, and the 2nd place winner gets the remaining 25%.

So if 10 people enter, the award would be 20 silver with the first place getting 15 silver and the 2nd place getting 5 silver.

For a game over 20 people, which would be run in 4 heats of 5 each, then 1 game of the 4 winners, much more valuable prizes can be awarded.

(( Can someone translate this to German please? ))

Isn't that very dangerous? Somebody can be hurt by falling down

Perhaps I should plant some grain on the ground below the library, for a fee

Um you could use some books from the library for them to land on. But I dont think the owner,(Quain was it?) Will be to happy about his books being misused.

Übersetztung:

Es gibt ein Spiel, dass König des Daches genannt wird. Es ist ein ganz einfaches Spiel, Ihr geht aufs Dach der Bibliothek und bemüht euch, andere herunter zu schubsen. Die letzte Personen die oben steht, wird zum Gewinner erklärt.

Wenn es dann eine große Anzahl von Leuten im Spiel gibt, wird es in Runden gemacht. Es gibt z.B. 5 Leuten mit einem, der oben bleibt, dann ein weiteres Spiel von 5 Leuten mit 1, der stehen bleibt. Dann spielen diese beiden gegeneinander, und wer auch hier übrig ist, ist der Gewinner.

Ich(Serpardum) habe einige Spiele gestartet, die Eintrittsgebühr ist ein Silber, 250 Goldmünzen, die von mir verdoppelt werden. Der Gewinner bekommt 75% des Silbers, und der 2. bekommt die bleibenden 25%.

Deshalb wenn 10 Leute hochgehen, wäre die Auszeichnung 20 Silber. Der erste bekommt dan 15 Silber. Der 2. 5 Silber.

Für ein Spiel mit 20 Leuten, gibt es 4 Runden mit je 5 Spielern. Die 4 Gewinner treten dann gegeneinander an. Es können auch viel wertvollere Preise verliehen werden.

The library isn't owned by Damien either. It's owned by the Order of the Grey Light.

Dyluck:
