 * Game**[[image:Chosen_Design.jpg width="197" height="109" align="left"]] **Name:** Bloggers Vs. Censors

 * Topic:** Internet Censorship in Iran

 * Designer's Goal:** Inform players about the world of Internet Censorship
 * Core Mechanics:** Writting, Censoring, Competing.
 * Game Elements****:**
 * The judge will tally the scores and post them on their page and declare the winner.
 * The judge's page contians:
 * All rules of the game
 * Time limit
 * When time starts
 * When the game ends
 * Link to censor's page
 * Link to blogger's page
 * Contains Link to judge's page
 * Link to Censor's Page
 * Link to blogger's page
 * Link to Judge's page
 * Restrictions (Will be writen by censors)

Getting Started: First, the role of censors, bloggers and judge must be chosen. Next, everyone logs into Google Docs using their BSGE e-mails and follows the url that has been given to them. (Censor, Blogger, or Judge's page) All rules will be writen on each page. The players will decide a time limit for the game ranging between 10-30 min. Judges will post starting and ending time on their pages and alert everyone when to begin.
 * 2-3 censors
 * 2-3 bloggers
 * 1 judge

Rules: Players will follow the links provided to their pages.The blogger will write about any topics they wish, but they must keep the censors from blocking out their page. The Censors censor by deleting the writing on the page but they cannot replacing writing with a restriction writen in red. They can only censor what violated their restrictions, and they can only add two new restrictions once the game has started.They cannot block out more than three lines per paragraph. The blogger should continue to blog, and also attack the censor's page and write on it. If "Haystack" ( the name of a censor evading-software) Is written in red 100 times on the censrors' page, then the censors cannot censor for three minutes. The gamers should set a time limit at the beginning of the game saying how much time there is to blog/censor. It can be between 10 minutes 30 min. The timing begins after docs are shared. (the judge keeps track) By the end of the time limit, whomever's page has the most words wins, but the page must be presentable, or the player is disqualified. (check through highlighting word count in 'tools') Count the number of words in the restrictions on the blogger's page, and that is deducted from the total # of words. Throughout the entire game, the judge makes sure these rules are enforced and disqualifies players who do not follow them or write non-relevant things on google docs.

Challanges: Keeping your blog running as the censors are attacking it, while still atttacking the censors page, and vice versa. For the judge(s), keeping control over the players.

Pace: This game is quick-paced, especially since there is to be a time limit.
