In the aftermath of Minority Rule, the eight of you are led away from the central hall by yet another masked attendant. He guides you to a room largely occupied by a single massive table, surrounded by high backed chairs. In front of each of the chairs is a placard with a player's name and number on it, a manila folder, a leather-bound notebook, and an elegant fountain pen. At the attendant's gesture, you each find your seat and notice that the notebook is divided into two separate notepads. One seems to be a ballot of some sorts, separated into ten boxes. The other simply has the word 'CONTRACT' as the header for each page.
"So you've lost," the attendant says, breaking the rather tenuous silence. "My condolences. But in the Liar Game, defeat is often temporary. As such, rather than simply reducing our pool of players to two, we are giving you, the players, a chance to choose those who will accompany our winners forward in the games as well as those whose journey ends here. The dossier in front of each of you should prove sufficient to explain the rules of our Downsizing Game to you. However, if you wish additional clarification I shall remain here to take questions."
The attendant pauses as dossiers are opened and documents examined before interrupting one final time. "You have 50 votes. Use them well."
You have 72 hours before the first round concludes at 7:00:00 AM GMT Sunday May 24th. Please have all ten of your votes in before the deadline. If you would like, you may finalize your vote when you cast it. While you may still change a finalized vote, finalizing it tells the Dealers that you do not intend to change your vote. If all players have finalized their votes before the end of the round, the round will end early.
All votes and contracts should be sent by PM to Ormonde and Alydar. When sending in a contract, make sure that both signatories send in the same contract as confirmation of their approval. The Dealers will do their best to confirm all contracts within 24 hours from receiving them, though we cannot guarantee there will be no delays.
