If you are a relatively new reddit user, please check the game page to ensure that you are not being flagged as a bot. If you are flagged you will see a text box like the one below. If you see this box, then follow the hyperlink to fill out the survey, but ALSO message /u/bakonydraco directly on reddit to get the issue sorted out. You can also T-Mail me here and I'll help get you sorted out.
If you want to discuss the game in deeper detail and strategize with us, you can join our private subreddit here (https://www.reddit.com/r/ClemsonCFBRisk/) . We usually announce plans of what we want to attack/defend in the afternoons, but we discuss strategy all day. Be warned though, there will be a vetting process to join this sub because there are tons of people from other schools trying to see what we're doing each turn. Even if you don’t pass the vetting process, we still urge you to help Clemson by following the daily assignments above.
Additionally, if you'd like to take part in the general shenanigans that are going on between schools for this game, check out https://www.reddit.com/r/CFBRisk/ .
Go Tigers!
Instructions as to how to play:
At the beginning of the game. Every team was assigned one single territory, and so every territory is now named after that team. When you go to select an action in the game (bottom right corner of the interface), you'll see option such as:
This means that our current territories border the locations that was originally assigned to Rutgers and Penn State. If you choose to attack Navy, you will attempt to take that piece of land next round. Defend Maryland, means that we currently own Maryland's original homeland, and defending Maryland means putting your vote towards keeping Maryland from being taken.
After you submit what you're doing for the day, just sit back at wait! At Midnight EST all of the picks from all of the teams go in, and a random number generator selects a winner for each territory. The map updates and then it all happens again tomorrow.
