Ban the Person Above You

Yep, a true classic.  The object here is to 'ban' the person above you.  All you need to do is fabricate a reason, a duration and maybe a condition to be met to have the ban lifted.  There's a handy format to follow for all of that nonsense that we'll ask you to stick to.  Being 'banned' in this thread means nothing, of course, and you're free to reply whenever - so long as your reply is a ban on the person above you.  As always, keep the CoC firmly in your mind when playing this game.

Example:

Say Whackadoo_Simpson posted above me.  I would reply as follows:

Whackadoo_Simpson, you have been banned for violating the stupid name ban on these boards.  Your ban will be lifted when you get a better name.

Something like that but, you know, funny.  ;)  Have fun!


EDIT: If someone can find the format we used to use, I'll update this post to show it.  I liked it a lot but can't seem to get the ol' brain goober to remember it.

Tevish_Szat, you have been banned for forgetting to slap a duration or condition to be met to remove the ban you assigned.  And for having letter soup for a name.  Gods that was tough to spell.  Uhh ... anyhoo, your ban shall last no less than three days - or you can hand over your shiny forum bling and we'll let ya off with a warning.  ;)
