PitchMadness: The Agent Game Rules



PITCH MADNESS


The Agent Game Rules

Starting on September 6 at 8AM EST through 12PM (Noon) EST on Septemer 10 the agents will stop by the host blogs, read the entries, and make their Monopoly plays (bids) for the pitches they want to read more of. (See the ranking sheet for a list of plays – request types.)

Here’s the participating blogs:


A Monopoly play is placing a bid for the entry (see Monopoly Play Ranking sheet) in the comments of that entry’s post. The agents have a limited amount of plays for each request type (partials, fulls, and trumps). The comments will be set to moderation so you won’t see what the agents' plays are until the reveal day.

September 10 is reveal day. We’ll post all the comments and reveal the winning requests starting at 12:01 PM (NOON)  EST. The best play wins the request for that entry. It'll all play out on the Twitter hashtag #PitchMadness.

What happens with ties, you ask? Well, that’s where it gets tricky!

THE CHALLENGE

The challenge round starts after the reveal and if there are tying requests. We’ll announce the pitches that received tying requets on the hashtag #PitchMadness on Twitter. Agents will then go to the entry post and enter another play in the comments. Each challenge will continue until there is a winner or until all but one player is eliminated (runs out of request plays and trumps) for that pitch. Best plays wins!
