Poll: Which game would you most like to see on FHDC?

It was hard to narrow down this list, to say the least. Please feel free to suggest your own options, or get more specific on the ones you'd like to see. These will all be multi-player (and some can be played against the computer as well).

No Ink Links or something like pictionary?!

::whine!!!!::

there seems to be a major bias against trick taking card games here.

see "card games" option :-)

there were too many to list outright..

why is uno listed separately, then? :)

uno has special cards ;-)

you <EM>can</EM> play it with a regular deck, though. maybe you could implement some cool fhdc scripting thing so we can create our own games with a regular deck of cards. :)

ace of spades is a good game, too.

feh, I must be old fashioned. what's wrong with <EM>? :)

um, then it would be Crazy 8's.

There are specialty versions of Uno - Harry Potter and Spongebob editions for example, that have extra cards besides the regular Uno ones.

If we go for Uno, maybe we could come up with ideas for some special Fruvous edition cards.

I'm a hobbit!
The English major in me made me click scrabble, but my real vote would still be for the old BBS type games. Although I have no clue how easy/hard it would be to convert them for a website.

Still, something RPGish would be cool.

oh dude. Trade Wars would rock. as would Legend of the Red Dragon.

but yeah, the RPGs would be cool, too. after all, we're all a bunch of geeks, according to last week's poll. :)

I can't play cards, the English majors will kick some wormy-butt in Scrabble...but I'm actually GOOD at Word Racer!!!

So make the cute lil begging worm happy *pleeeeeeeeeease* and add it? pweeeze? :-)

Ok, I'm sure I should know this, but what is Word Racer?
For some reason I'm thinking of the "learn to type" game I had growing up, but that wasn't exactly the most fun game in the world...
Somehow I think it's something a bit more exciting.

Word racer is another name for Boggle. It's a game where you are searching for words in a grid of random letters. Sort of like a search-a-word puzzle, but the letters don't have to go in a straight line and you have no list of words to work off of, you find as many as you can yourself in a set amount of time. More points for more letters in a word, and using letters in certain positions in the grid get you more points. Much more fun than the typing game! Make sense?

Ah, ok. I should have figured that out when it was listed as the same option as Boggle ;)

maybe Josh will do the same thing with the games suggestions as the modifications suggestions - add all of them eventually, but the most popular first. :)

I would assume the options wouldn't be there in the poll if Josh didn't think it was possible to implement, so I think it's safe to say we could see all of these at some point assuming the demand is there.

Puzzles? Brain teasers? Riddles? Trivia? I like all of the above... It could have a time limit before the answer shows (a day?) or reset when the correct answer is entered. :)

I was thinking of crossword puzzles--some people, you know, get irrational crossword cravings. Um, so I'm told.

Bah! Who knows anyone like *that*? We all know crossword puzzle addicts are mythical creatures that don't really exist, like, um, unicorns.

(What? Me? Bombard the wall with requests for help on crosswords? Never!)

ooh. trivia. something i'm actually good at, because it's all about knowing completely useless information. want.

there should be a fr�monopoly, with fruvous place names! or something. heh :D

Ugh. I have never once, in my entire life, won a game of Monopoly.

Hmmph.

FHDC should be a fully accredited ACBL affiliated bridge club that awards master points. I mean we have so many players, there's Lawrence, Nicole, me, and, ummm, ummmm. OK we need a fourth.

there are a few thousand people on here. odds are more than three of us play bridge. :)

That's the problem, there are thousands of people. Do people play bridge?

me! I play bridge.. or.. I have. :)
