It seems that there's still some confusion. So let me try to make this as clear as possible. This is how the scoring for the quote war works.
Every time you quote someone from the Red Team you get a point. It doesn't matter if someone posts before you or after you, you get a point for quoting anyone from the red team. That being said, every time you quote someone try to post a link to the post so that at the end of the week we can go through and tally it all.
Now as for chains. A chain is created when one person quotes someone from the other team, and then the person who was quoted comes in and quotes the person who quoted them. Hallelujah it's a chain! Now as long as nobody else (regardless of if they're on your team, the opposite team or not on any team) pops up and breaks the chain of quotes, then you get a chain count. And you get a point for each and every quote that you've made regardless of if you were the last quoter or not. So here's an example.
If person X says that they like pickles and then person Y quotes them asking if they've ever had kool-aid pickles, then that's a point for person Y because they just quoted person X. Now it becomes a chain if person X comes back and quotes person Y without someone popping in between them. It's just like a conversation. Now this chain goes on until person Z - who could be literally anyone - comes in and posts. So the chain starts with the first quote, Y quotes X and sets it all off. Then when X quotes Y that's a 2 quote chain. Y quotes X again it's a 3 quote chain, and this goes on until person Z decides to ruin the fun.
If anyone still has any questions just bring them to me and I'll help you out.
