The Mole game concept & sign ups

The Mole



Fourteen strangers are about to embark on an adventure unlike any other. These players have to work together to earn money that in the end only one of them will win. One of these players is the mole, a double agent working for us against the other 13. At the end of each episode the players take the quiz. 10 questions about the mole. The quiz determines who stays and who goes, cause the player that scored the lowest on the quiz is executed and send home immediately.

The big question is….who is the mole?

Game format

The Mole starts with 14 players.
During each episode, the contestants participate in a number of challenges, each assigned a monetary value. If the contestants, as a team, complete the challenge, that money is added to the final prize for the game. However, one of these contestants has been selected by me to be the Mole; his or her job is to try to prevent the other players from winning challenges without revealing himself to others. The Mole may be told ahead of time of how to do this or what challenges to expect, while at other times the Mole must decide whether to intervene or not.

At the end of each episode, the contestants take a quiz regarding the identity of the Mole and his or her involvement in the previous activities. The player who scores the lowest on this quiz, or was slowest to answer in case of a tie, is eliminated from the game. The winner of the game is the one that answers the most questions correctly on the final quiz given when there are only three players remaining (including the Mole), and is awarded the total amount of money won over the course of the game.

While success in the challenges is important in order to build up potential winnings, it is also critical to stay in the game by scoring better than opponents on the quiz, usually by attempting to draw their suspicions of the Mole's identity toward oneself. Since the Mole must use subterfuge to misdirect attention from his/her attempts to derail the team, disingenuous attempts to emulate the Mole must be subtle, while still noticeable and suspicious.


Challenges
During the game the players have to complete certain challenges. With these challenges they can win money that will be added to a group pot which only one person can win. A lot of challenges offer players ways to disrupt the game, as well as ways of disguising their betrayel.
Most challenges will require you to work together as a team, others will be more individual.
There will be more challenges taking time at the same place, mostly between 2-4 to keep the game interesting. After each set of challenges there will be a quiz.


Quiz and Eliminations
The quiz is the primary device of eliminating contestants. With between ten and twenty questions, the quiz asks the players to identify the Mole and several pieces of information regarding the Mole, including the Mole's activity in challenges, biographical profile, etc.

The player scoring lowest on the quiz (and taking the longest time to do so, in the event of tied scores) is eliminated from the game.

Occasionally players will have the chance to alter their scores, and thus their chances of surviving the elimination.
Players can earn "jokers" to be used at any point to erase incorrect answers.

And then there are times when players are given the chance at "exemptions" or "free passes". Should a player earn an exemption, he or she is not required to take the quiz and thus safe from elimination.

Journals

The journals are a important part of the Mole. While I am not expecting you to write in them every day, I do expect that you will habitually update them. Journals will NOT be revealed until AFTER the game has ended, at which point they will be made public.

You are expected to write in the journals for four different reasons:
1. General Confessionals – Use your journals to vent, rant, write your thoughts down, and talk about anything that pops into your mind and relates to the game.
2. Mole Suspicions – You most definitely should write down every feeling or suspicion you receive about any other player, whether it be a clue, a gut instinct. Additionally, once a round you will be asked to rank the players based on how likely they are to be the Mole.
3. Mole Details – A main purpose of your journals are to write down various details and fine points about the other players; anything that could be used in the Mole quizzes is fair game, and it would be ideal to keep track of
4. Journal Questions – I may post questions for you to answer in your journal. Questions are mandatory to be answered.
