Player Guide

Okay, we thought about this. A full player manual from the developers would be too complex, too meta, too unncessary.  A player manual from PLAYERS makes a lot more sense. So, if you have advice you'd like to share with other players - newbies especially - just email it over and we'll post it here. Meanwhile, here's the one thing we could agree is worth passing along to everyone:

Every ObieGame is different. Clues appear in different ways; people, places and things have varying importance from year to year; your goals change and the ways you achieve them change as well. If you played before, reset your expectations - on plot, scope, clues, armadillos, whatever. Each ObieGame has rules... you'll just need to figure them out first.

A note on hacking:

Teams have come up with a myriad of creative ways to screw with, confuse, and try and get a leg up on other teams.
