I've been informed that I should probably post a link to my latest attempt here.

Wikipedia Wars: Involution

Hopefully it won't die this time.

So there's been yet another game made, this one is using the wiki list idea of Random Wikia-War, with the Avatar system of Virtual Mortality, and the game-modes used by Greatness' Wiki Wars, except it's taking active suggestion for new wikis to add to the list. You can find it at:

OhBoyAnotherWikiWarsGame

Join in whenever you want, there's only one active slot left but a bottomless waitlist. And do try to bring some interesting new wikis with you. Currently the list is:

Huh, after months of precisely 0 active wiki-wars, I start one and suddenly there are 4 wiki-wars at once.
How about that.  :P

Artifacts:

Articles you can find lying around. All players have a radar of them. They only have one piece of information, like Mortal Kombat Article, or Weapon Article.

Didn't expect this thread to get an update. I should probably link my new game, but I sadly am not on computer so I can't get thr link.

Also, I like that idea, it's actually giving me ideas as well, some kind of bonus objective system with pre-set rewards instead of a wish perhaps?

Since Wiki games are very popular, even meeting their often high player requirements in abundance, and there also tends to be difficulties in hosting them it may be worth putting some thought into reducing the load on a host.

This is what I've come up with so far:
~ less players (less exponential interactions)
~ smaller, more defined map (less exponential consistency)
~ cohost. have jobs like map manager and storyteller.
~ have shorter sessions (to accommodate more players)
