How popular would small versions of Frog finder/frog legs be? For instance, on a 9x9 board; same rules. The number of frogs could be the same, or somewhat less (for instance 2x4 for the small frog finder, and 7 for the small frog legs).
Suggested names: "Spot the tadpole" (mini frog finder) and "Pollywog" (mini frog legs). (Tadpoles are sometimes named pollywogs).
AbigailII: Either a smaller board or more frogs would help reduce the "boring" portion where both players take shots that they know will turn up zeros. Unless there's a rule change, I'm probably not going to start any more Frog Finder games.
