I'm Fepe. Hi.
Who He Play For? is a recurrent game on Inside the NBA, where Ernie asks Chuck to guess where certain players play. And I've always found the idea fun to play. So I made it into a web game, so I (and you) can play it.
Even though on Inside the NBA they usually use lesser known players, here you have all of them.
Alternatively you can try playing in hard mode if you are looking for an extra challenge. That way, you'll get players from a pool of the 50 least guessed.
As a reward, if you are logged in, your score will be multiplied by 1,5 if you play in this mode. For more info, check how the scores are calculated.
(difficulty * 3 * correct_guesses - wrong_guesses) (rounded) where wrong_guesses include not only the ones you didn't guess right, but also the rounds you did not play. And difficulty is 1,5 if playing in hard mode, 1 otherwise.It's a work in progress, so it can change anytime. For now, it's simply (3*correct_guesses - wrong_guesses) * difficulty where wrong_guesses include not only the ones you didn't guess right, but also the rounds you did not play.
And difficulty starts being 1, and adds up like so:
While correct_guesses and wrong_guesses are... well, you know.
I'll eventually come up with a better way to calculate scores but for now, this'll have to do.Important: If you play without a time limit, you'll get a score of 0.
