(Note from the Author: I wish I had thought of this a week ago, and I'll say it's still fitting for the upcoming American holiday. This isn't my grand finale, so to speak, and I wanted to throw this out there anyway.)
It came from beyond, and it's coming for you in its desire to...

Objective: Avoid being CONSUMED! If you've already fallen victim, CONSUME!
How to Play:
If you are part of the monster from beyond, simply post "I am consuming!" and name your victim. Any victim may be targeted, though active members who try to escape are normally tastier. The victim will become part of your collective if you get two others in your collective to also target the same victim before they can escape.
If you are one of the hapless humans yet to be consumed, you can attempt to escape! To successfully stay alive, should you become the target of consumption, you simply describe your escape from the monster from beyond before they are able to overwhelm you with three consecutive posts from its collective. As a human, you can also team up with two other humans to rescue a human that has already fallen victim by posting "I am rescuing!" and naming your target, succeeding if the three humans make the effort before being interrupted by an attempt to consume.
The outcome for the pitiful humans is grim. You can only hope that the monster from beyond grows lazy in its size and stops feeding before it comes for you!
You can always opt to start out as part of the collective if you're not already in play, though if possible, you should start as a human. To get the game going, please allow at least 4 people to post as the monster before attempting rescues.
