Re: [OpenVerse] games?
Additionally, this type of "game" has naturally evolved over at VP with the
"mug wars", "mug hockey" and etc. serious users who either "get bent on
mugs" or "just want to have fun" herd and/or corral mugs into corners. Much
the same as that suggested game. So, maybe just setting up the possibility
for the game using the hairdryer technique would be a possibility. (this is
what someone should have done in VP... The Mug Hockey Arena)
...just a thought....
