Can't believe we don't have this game yet.
Simple game: predict what picture will be out tomorrow.

Not so simple rules, though. Basically, you can say anything, from something generic like "We're getting a new item!" to something a little bit more specific like "We're getting Luigi riding Bowser and slapping his ass with the Fan!". Obviously, you get more points the closer you get to reality.

To make things simpler for the poor dude who's gonna have to count the points (probably me but I don't know if I'll have the time everyday, if that's gonna be the case I'll gladly give the OP to someone else without problems, I just wanted to laid out the idea) you'll have to be a little schematic.

PLEASE EVERYONE, READ THESE RULES AND FOLLOW THE EXAMPLE I'LL GIVE IN THE NEXT POST.

Basically, there are this kind of updates possible:

- Character reveal
- Stage reveal
- Stage explanation (from stage hazards to a simple picture showing a different angle)
- Item reveal (returning or new)
- Poké Ball reveal
- Assist Trophy reveal
- New gameplay mechanic
- Character buff/nerf
- Character's move explanation
- Something related to game modes (trophies for example)

Now, let's suppose you bet there's going to be a stage reveal, and Donkey Kong Island gets revealed.
You get three points.
If you'd bet a stage from the DK franchise to get revealed, you would've got 10 points.
If you'd bet the actual Donkey Kong Island stage to get revealed and it actually happens, you'd got a whopping 100 points.

That works for every other type of reveal (not sure I got them all).

If you want to be brilliant, you can explicitly describe the photo in every detail, and then I'll analyze it to see how good you got it. I could get up to 1000 points even! For example, you say "DK Island is gonna appear with an image of a shore with palms and penguin vikings!" and if the image is exactly that, I'd give you 1000. If the vikings for example are not in the picture but the rest is like you said, I'd give you 500, or 600, on my discretion. Obviously, the more details you give, the more points you get if they're correct.

For characters, even if there are 10 picture you're allowed to describe only one of them. If one of the 10 pictures is like you said, I'll consider that one. This is only because if I had to analyze 10 different pictures for everyone one of you, I'd kill myself, simply put.

Oh, and you obviously have to point if the picture will be WiiU or 3DS. If you get it right, you'll double the point, but if you get it wrong, you'll loose half of them!

This probably sounds really convoluted but I guess that after a few tries you'll get how it works, so let's just try for the next week and see if it works and has success.

PLEASE EVERYONE, READ THESE RULES AND FOLLOW THE EXAMPLE I'LL GIVE IN THE NEXT POST.

For tomorrow, I predict a picture for the WiiU version.
It'll be a Poké Ball reveal, specifically of Genesect.
Description: Genesect is launching missiles from his back in the Smashville stage, but we don't see against whom he's doing it.

Inb4 generic "tomorrow will have a character in it or a stage in it" posts.
I predict tomorrow will a throwaway pic with no notable information. Specifically a picture of little mac doing something and sakurai saying something we already know. (I say this because of a possible green dinosaurus on friday)
I skimmed through the op and then edited my post after realizing that i ****ed up.

If no yoshi on friday i hope for snake on tuesday next week.
You got it all wrong.
First, if someone says "Tomorrow there'll be a character in it" he'd get a point, I guess. 3 if he says the exact character.
"Throwaway pic" doesn't count. I won't consider you bet, since you can't judge objectively something like that.
Also please put the prediction for tomorrow only.
Not a bad start. Yeah.

Now it's better. You could fill it by saying in which stage he is or what exactly he's doing, and to whom he's doing it to get more points if you're right. Also you could say which version of the game will be, if 3DS or WiiU.
Still though what you say could be misinterpreted. Something that is generic to you, could be interesting to others. I'll just consider that you predict Little Mac doing something we already know and use my discretion I guess.

With the Green Shell hitting Fox.
And Sakurai noting what it'll do.

For tomorrow, I predict we'll see something rolling-related.

It'll be either:
1. Diddy Kong's cart wheel dash attack (attacking a different character with fur) or
2. Little Mac's rolling dodge (though Sakurai's blurb will not call it rolling dodge but something different), where he moves behind a weapon-wielding character (Dedede, Link, Marth or Samus' using her plasma beam)

Sorry, only one of them can get accepted. Or simply the general "It's gonna be something rolling-related!" which is odd but still works.

Eh, I thought I'd explain what I meant with rolling-related. I'm not choosing; keep the general "It's gonna be something rolling-related!".

All right. Again I remember you that you can get more specific and adding details to have the possibility of gain more points, but it must be only one scenario obviously.

The Miiverse Daily Pic Thread should suffice for this. Take all your predictions there.
