there was some talk on the jungle board for a variation of jungle. in it you would need to get your mouse into the opponents lair to win or simply capture the opponents mouse. someone said it would be easy for someoneto be cheap if they kept the mouse in the water the whole time. So I made the following post which was suggested to be posted here.

"what about adding a new animal peice? Maybe a croc or snake? the croc could go on land or water and be able to kill anything weaker than a lion. perhaps also make it so that it can only attack while in the water or when coming out of the water. if already on land it can't attack.

A snake could be like the crock only it could be killed by any animal. in addition it could possibly kill any other animal(poison) in return. though, perhaps not the elephant. you know, to keep it as the strongest piece in the game.

just a random idea. don't mind me ^_^;"

Edit: this was posted after my post in responce.

"I don't like the croc idea. The croc has a great power that could be easily abused and even if a lion can kill it it will be a very dangerous piece. The snake idea is good, any piece attacking a snake will be killed (so this is a kamikaze weak piece) I think you might want to make the rat immune to his powers, not the elephant. You really don't have to make any animal immune to his powers though. That way you would either have to trade snakes or get your cat out there and sacrifice him. The point is, this snake piece is a good idea because it forces each player to make moves that aren't normally considered in standard jungle. I personally usually leave my minor animals at home to protect my lair but if a snake is coming you don't want to fight it at the last minute and lose a defender (usually their are two defenders for each magenta square but with a snake nearby you can make it one, this is an invaluable tactic). I think the snake idea is great, perhaps you should take your idea to the feature request message board?"

Edit 2:forgot to mention that ColonelCrockett�was the one who replied to my post.

i like the sound of that game. it sounds like it could be fun.

the site I refered to does it right away. reserving a name is just a title. what I mean is once you put the name in it is yours and will stay yours until you delete it. You basically just add extra names you can switch with instead of having to type it. it would require the same, if not less time to do as just changing your name the way it is now.

I wish I could explain it better.

maye you could put an option where, instead of letting people change their name they can instead reserve a new name. Lets say you get tired of your current name. imply choose to reserve an extra name to your account. you could then choose in your profile which name you want to use. it would also list in your profile what names you have reserved. a site I go to frequintly does this.

the site is tmallance.com(a mature site by the way) there any one can create reserved names so long as they aren't on moderation.

did I make any sense?

btw, perhaps you could limit how many reserved names some one can have based on their membership level?

just another thought

what if you could have a tournament where each individual game is random. for example, the first two peope could be playing chess and next two could be playing checkers(basically each game you have could be different from what someone else is playing). You could call it a masters tournament or something like that. maybe you could hold it once a year with some kind of prize for the winner. I think it would be interesting to see who could win dispite the fact that no one would be fully prepared. I can't discribe it well bu I think it would be very fun. just another thought

what do you think of a battle boats game that was just like the normal one except there would be three stars randomly placed on the bored after set up. If your opponent hits one of the stars he or she would then get to make five shots instead of one on the next turn. Or perhaps there could be two white stars that give you that option and one black star that would give it to your opponent instead. doesn't have to be stars though, it could be a plane or something else.

just an idea.

yea, I completely agree.

so then you can be a power hungry lunatic? I sertainl wouldn't like to get kicked out of a fellowship for no reason at all and I definately wouldn't do that to someone else if I had one. that rule isn't up to me so i wont worry about it.

i'm not sure but I don't thnk you could kick someone out unless they do something to justify it.
