Well it varies from week to week so I can't really give specific information other than the forum games will give you an advantage in the weekend's sporting event.

Today, for example, the teams will compete to get first picks in horse races taking place on Saturday - winners of the races that have been picked by a team will register points and the team with the most points at the end will win the week's game. All will be explained but it's likely to be similar in future weeks but the scoring may differ a bit. It should be fairly understandable as we go along.

Anyway, we will begin at 7pm tonight but will post up further information a little bit before that so we can be all set to start on time.

On my way home now. Would be great if people could sign up at www.thewikigame.com. I think that's the url!

Have a play around should you wish but just register please with your username here or alike so I can recognise you.

Essentially you have to get from one page to another just using hyperlinks. The quickest person to get there wins. I know there will be randomers playing too but I can still identify the first 1ffer to get there as well.

Was going to decide on a number of games but we will do this on time so two 45 minute stints with a break in between. One game follows the next directly so keep going and probably don't check in here as they come pretty quick and fast!

For every winning game (between members here not in the world!) a point will be scored. These points correspond to the number of horses you will have in your stable for Saturday. More will be explained on that later.

Will hopefully start as near to 7 as possible.

Also I hope this works but if not there's a plan b! I've played it before and I believe everyone is in the same game but will just have to play it by ear!

Anyone else having trouble getting on the site on mobile? I get redirected to an advert telling me to download the iOS app, but I'm using Android...

Well, my broken laptop, and the inability to create an account on my Android phone.. I've tried several times, sadly rules me out of this one. Dunno what else I can do.

Good luck Kahnites.

Noticed that on my phone. Not sure tbh, only ever used it on a laptop.

If there's a lot of trouble with it then we can just go to plan b...if a bit more boring.

Can you give us a link to a page other than the homepage, e.g. a specific game? That might get around it.

Mark, can you let me know what game you're seeing? Just so I know it'll be the same game for everyone.

After creating an account you then have to login at the top right.

Yeh, it then said invalid password. Tried the resend password email and it didn't come through

I reckon you should carry on even if it's only laptop users as long as you can get enough....

Ta. Yeah think it'll work if enough people can get on it. Not much fun if half the people aren't here or can't play!

I think two 45 minute stints will be way too long, especially as the game is run outside of this so should go pretty smoothly. Nice idea though.

Well this sucks. There are 30 players and obviously not everyone's going to be available but seems a bit daft to do something with just a handful and others missing out due to the site.

Workaround for mobile users (in Chrome, at least). There's an option in the menu to 'request desktop site', click that and you'll get to the right page.

Will give it a bit more time. As Cards says, can be shorter...I just wanted a good number of points available really.

I've only seen 4 people in game so far which is clearly not gonna work. Worst case scenario we do something tomorrow.

On the plus side, each team do have at least 1 member registered.

Right what we're gonna do is split this in two. We'll have a go at this tonight, and then tomorrow we will do a simpler game just on the thread so hopefully everyone has a chance of participating.

Only mitigating factor is I'm going out at some point tomorrow evening but should be back before too late.

Will be a 30 minute game of this by the way to start some point fairly soon?
