Here is a summary of the new rule updates:
1) Deadlines:
Psychic giving clue: 24 hrs
Initial team guess: 4 days
Opposing team left/right guess: stays at 48 hrs
2) When determining teams, players can decide what team they will join. After the game starts, new players can decide which team they will be placed on. Players can also just /in for whatever and I'll put them on a random team, prioritizing teams with fewer players.
3) Psychic priority will be given to players who have not yet been a Psychic; this includes if new players join (ie I'll give those new players priority to be Psychic over anyone who has already been a Psychic in Game 1)
4) Each team will be assigned a spokesperson - whoever is the most recent person to have been a Psychic who is no longer a Psychic. The spokesperson changes each time the team gets a new Psychic. The spokesperson is in charge of making the team's official guesses, both numbers and Left/Right.
5) Instead of going until one team reaches 10 points, the game will end when all players on both teams have been a Psychic and both teams have played the same number of rounds. If there is a tie, we will play a sudden death round with me as the Psychic. Both teams will start at 0 points. The "catch-up" rule will no longer apply.

I get it now, and now I think that's boring and don't want the name now.

You're a genius, shiki. Shall we wrap this one up and take our 4 points?

in all seriousness, shiki is a really logical person so I think she wants us to think about the picture logically. right now, i'm thinking 25 because approximately 25% of the picture is dark?

Heya guys,
Glad to join this game.
@Hectic, I couldn't see the 73 until you pointed it out so I don't think it will it is 73.
I think it maybe 40. Reason being that it's colourful with tinges of dark and since it's name is composition

"numerology" stuff is kinda out of the spirit of the game, I'm just always going to assume it is not that. At its logical extreme you could always just ignore the prompt and name one of the first hundred elements of the periodic table.
This image is somewhat colorful in that it could be black and white, but isn't, but not fully colorful, with many hues in the spectrum of visible light omitted. It is very dark, both literally and in the emotions the piece evokes. I'm thinking 80, but maybe it's merely a 70. 60 seems too low to me.

Frick, should have thought of this.

I was kidding about 73 lol. That's a very interesting take, Isis. This is a difficult one actually; I might have to read some shiki games to see how she would interpret it.

. I thought you were serious. But it was quite cool how you could find 73 in that picture.

I am not sure how deep shiki went into the meaning of the painting or are we supposed to take the painting at a literal level.
But this is the comments of the author:
You can see two centers in the picture:
1. On the left there is a gentle, pink, slightly blurred center with faint, uncertain lines.
2. On the right (slightly higher than the left center) is a rough, red-blue, somewhat dissonant center with sharp, a little bit unkind, strong, very precise lines.
A tremendous disaster, which is taking place objectively, is an absolute and, at the same time, independent warm song of praise, similar to the anthem of a new creation following the disaster.
Which would take me closer to 50. But if we just use the colours, it is obviously very colourful and would be 20/30.
I don't know. I suck at art and I always fail it
