ok, everything makes sense re the mice and elephants. But what do you mean by long and short jumps/ Do you mean jumping over two bodies of water or is the distinction horizontal and vertical? Both lions and tigers can jump over only one river at a time, but can jump either horizontally or vertically. But the rules I posted below only mention jumping ability for lions and tigers, and furthermore the applet itself won't permit it, so I think they're landbound.

And yes, this looks ridiculous so someone who hasn't been following the thread. But I'm itching to play now! Fencer, will your version have numbers beside the animals or an index either by the side of the board or in the rules?

There is a lot of options on the left sidebar that many people simply do not use. It would be nice if we had the option to hide any menu bars that we dont use.
"Polls" spring to mind as the first one I would hide, but others such as "winners" "brains" etc are rarely used and we dont really need them taking up space all the time.

Is this possible Fencer?

Yes, it can be done in the future.

Froglet Linetris: When a complete row or column is empty, it is "colapsed".

Minor rules: If the colapse results in no open spaces, then the next person has to click on a green frog just like at the start of the game.

That wouldn't be possible for a collapse to result in no open spaces - there will always be space beside or above the rows or columns that just shifted.

Actually it would be possible if you were to empty 2 rows, and have the last jump land in the only other empty spot in the third row. It would not happen often, but possible.

Like I said - if you EMPTY a ROW, there IS by definition an EMPTY ROW in which to jump into...

But if there is an 1 empty space, the last jump may be made into that space, colapsing the row - leaving the board full with no spaces (since the jumping frog took the last open space)

Oh, I see what you are saying - there will be an empty row on the outside where the board just shifted from. In my mind, I did not think of those as empty rows - just that the board actually got smaller. (but would probable be easier to program and such if it was considered an empty row.

Then a rule would have to be put into place that all shifts go right or down. :-)

I am not going to do this variant anyway :-)

LOL! I can't even keep up w/ Froglet & now you're talking about other animal related games, you might as well put me in a zoo if I'm not there already (in a good sense) of course :o)

thats a good one magic..LOL..::)))

i was wondering if it was possible to maximize the width of the notes and messageboard (see previous post). I made a similar comment during a game and now it's hard to move! lol.

I'll edit the post in a little while.

I second that. I'm the one he's playing.

Kudos, Fencer. I've been looking for a way to ignore annoying posts in public boards.

could someone let me know when grenv edit's his long post so I can unhide him.

It is a known issue and does not really need to be shown to prove that it is a problem.

I would BBW, but I would have to unhide him. Its nothing personal against him, just the width of his post LOL

I done it also LOL

I've removed it.

Thanks

Yeah Fencer!

Sorry, I was called away and forgot to remove it. :( didn't know it was known either.

consider yourself reprimanded, and stay in after school, you got lines to do LOL

lol. Doesn't help our game. :)

You could always hide the archive messages, but then it hides it in all games, not just that one. If the game is still going to take awhile to play, maybe giving the game # to Fencer, maybe he would be able to go and remove the long comment.

It's just about done, but thanks.

Fix in progress. Wait.

A test of very loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooong word.

Thanks.

If this works, it means that Fencer did a veryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryv ryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryver veryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryv ryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryvery good job

YEAH!

It's funny that it doesn't work with IE. I am just uploading a fix replacing whitespaces with <br>.

it works fine in IE for me, no need for the <br>s

version 6.0

Strange. It doesn't work for me. Perhaps it's a bug in Czech localization.

Wrapped correctly in Firefox.

to GRENV: Did it work with "?" too? :)
(in IE)

Now it's broken. Despite the spaces in the ????s

Pro Backgammon (with doubling cube). YES YES YES !!!

Will ludo be for three or four players?

It was working and now its not Fencer....Sorry luisifer, you're on ignore for a bit....his is the only one its not working on for me...all the others are ok?

oky, i deleted it :D
it was only example, that it dont work in IE. :)

uhgaibu: All games are two players only.

thanks :)

To save all the bickering about ratings, it might be an idea if they were converted to catagories, for example A-E, they would still be useful for finding suitable opponents yet there would be no fine detail to worry anybody.

I didn't realise ludo is ever played by two people. Have you any plans for two player card games? Royal cassino is fun.

ughaibu: I don't think there are many people who worry about "details" is BKR. 8 points up or down from an "absolutely correct value" are really pointless. About Ludo, of course it can be played by two people, although I admit it's much better fun with 4 or more.
Card games - which card games would be suitable for a turn-based game site?

Surely card games would take forever to play?

I can't see 'Snap' catching on! :)

I think the casino family of card games would be suitable and at 24 "moves" each would take less time than most chess games.

Like what? Poker, Black Jack, Baccarat?

Casino, royal casino and their popular variants. I'll look for a site giving the rules.
