I don't think much code would need to be added at all.

For something like mob football, we'd only really need a ball (sandstone wrapped in leather, with some sort of handle?) and could emote the rest.

They exist.

Find out IC.
Yes. Read the thread if you want, or skip to page 7 and be dismissive.

Wrestling.

The codes already there in the form of "subdue."  This way, all the descriptions are up to the players currently wrestling, and there's coded support as to who was "better."

Gee, I wonder what guild would abso-fucking-lutely dominate that sport.

::)

And?

and kruth cards, which i've never remembered seeing for sale, which is less complicated and has set rules, but which i don't care for. being a non-sports person who loves gambling, this has never been a problem for me.]
They are for sale in at least one accessible market.

Technically it should be a dwarf. But I have a feeling it's a half-giant.

Hopefully you'd still have atleast classes based on race for non-humans and a weight based system for humans.

I've always wanted to see roach racing.   Something small but coded, so people could place real bets.


> look roach
> This small bug is bronze in color and has two black spots painted on its back, indicating it's probably a pet.

> look racing mat
> Grass has been woven into a thin-lipped box shape measuring almost two-cords long.  A double-line of black paint has been placed near one end of the mat while a checker-shaped pattern adorns the opposite end of the mat.  Three hardened barriers of inch high wax have been set into groves along the mat, creating four distinct racing lanes.

> put roach, 2.roach, 3.roach, 4.roach mat
> play mat
> The bronze, spotted roach scurries down the racing mat.  It beats the other roaches by a solid inch lead.



It'd be neat if people could actually buy and train individual roaches.  But, I suppose everything could be simply coded via racing mat.  I don't know.

I remember recruiting this Half elf girl. And IMMEDIATELY taking her out on a contract. Right as we go into this gith hole I tell her "Remember your training, and you'll be fine." and she goes "I have no training." Then she died

Erdlu racing can be done in game, possibly. like a race to luirs.

Would be cool if there was a way to race that didn't involve mindlessly headbutting the "n" key though.

Or the "up" key and then "enter".

So, I have it on good authority that there may be one of the games discussed in this thread in an upcoming RPT in Tuluk...see the in game board for details.

You want some Zalanthan sports, we'll give you Zalanthan sports!

a maze with a prize at the center!

and you'd change the hard code every once in a while to change the maze up so people couldn't memorize it.

except; you'd have to get out with the prize too; so once someone else saw the center and realized the prize was gone, they'd have to opt to either leave peacefully or attack another contestant, and be prepared to be attacked as well.

emote sees potential for several versions of a maze game to be implemented.

Add traps and aggro critters and you may well be on to something here.
