Welcome to the Twelve Days of YPPY! This is an event based on the well-known song that will be running from the 13th of December to the 24th of December, spanning twelve days. Each of the twelve days has its own YPPY game, which will begin and end on that day. Once a day is over that game will be merged into this thread, which will eventually become an archive for all the games that were played during the twelve days. (Therefore for the duration of the event there will be a maximum of 2 threads in use for the Twelve Days of YPPY.) When a thread has been archived the first post of the game will be linked to here with the original post underneath it, to enable people to choose which games they want to look back on.
We have a wide range of games planned, from old favourites to one or two entirely new games. The roster of games will be kept secret until each one is launched, so be sure to check back each day to see what's in store!
This thread will be locked to ensure that the games stay in the correct order. The Twelve Days of YPPY can be discussed in Forum Games Resources & General Discussion.
Day One: The Ban Game - Start, End
On the first day of YPPY my true love gave to me:

Welcome to the first game of the Twelve Days of YPPY, an event that is running up until Christmas Eve. You can find more details about it here.
In this game you ban the above poster by giving a reason - it's as simple as it sounds. This game (as do all other games in the Twelve days of YPPY (obviously ;p)) uses the YPPY rule (You-Person-Person-You), meaning that you have to wait for two people to post before you can post again.

In this game, each time you post, you get to wish for something related to this time of year! Then the next person to post will grant your wish, but give it an unfortunate twist. (Aww.
) After crushing a wish, you must then make your own wish for the next person to crush. Isn't this game just a bag full of joy?Example:
Person A said:
Person B said:
As with all other Twelve Days of YPPY games, the YPPY rule applies to this game. You must wait for two other people to post after your previous post before you may post again.

Welcome to the fifth game of the Twelve Days of YPPY, an event that is running up until Christmas Eve. You can find more details about it here. Today, we have a recent favourite of the members, created by [member]Teal[/member].
In this game, you have to help Delibird calculate how long it will take to get to each house on Christmas Eve. At the end of your post, you will give the next poster 5 random numbers from 0-9. At the beginning of your post, you will use the 5 numbers the above member gave you, any amount of + - / * ^ ( ), and one = to make an equation. (Plus, minus, division, multiplication, exponent, parentheses.)
Example:
47582
2 + 4 + 7 = 8 + 5
As with all other Twelve Days of YPPY games, the YPPY rule applies to this game. You must wait for two other people to post after your previous post before you may post again.

Welcome to the sixth game of the Twelve Days of YPPY, an event that is running up until Christmas Eve. You can find more details about it here. Today, we have another new game! This one should be nice... or naughty. Not entirely sure yet.
In this game, you need to help Santa finish his naughty or nice list. To do this, post if you think the member above you is naughty or nice, then give a reason why. It's that simple!

Welcome to the eleventh game of the Twelve Days of YPPY, an event that is running up until Christmas Eve. You can find more details about it here. You're gonna need some creativity for today's game! Credit goes to [member]Reggie McGigas[/member] for the most recent incarnation of this game.
In this game, we're planning to make a Pokedex with a holiday theme, and we need your help! When you post, give the name of a Pokemon (that someone else hasn't already done) and make a fake Pokedex entry for it. Your Pokedex entry should have anywhere from 10 to 30 words, and should in some way be related to the holidays.
As with all other Twelve Days of YPPY games, the YPPY rule applies to this game. You must wait for two other people to post after your previous post before you may post again.
Here's my entry:
Machamp
Having four arms, they are very good for carrying those large presents you buy from the store. Some retailers have started using Machamps over shopping carts.

Welcome to the final game of the Twelve Days of YPPY! You can find more details about it here. Today, we're counting down to the Xmas itself!
In this game, there are two teams: Members and Moderators. Both teams have are trying to count down to Christmas first. To do this, both teams count up by posting one after another. (Each post counts as 1 day of December.) However, if someone from the other team posts then the counter is reset and the team that reset the counter may begin trying to count down to Christmas themselves. After 1 team has reached Christmas, they can keep counting anyway, because why not!?
As with all other Twelve Days of YPPY games, the YPPY rule applies to this game. You must wait for two other people to post after your previous post before you may post again.
Let's finish this thing off with a bang!
