A sign saying "Trap this way" The players are arrested for a crime they did not commit. They are then freed by the same people that committed the crime, in order to cause a distraction in the guard. If you aren't already salivating at the thought of monkey-samurai desperately trying to emulate cool-samurai in order to attract the eye of m'lady; or the machinating count richeliue{sp} hiring the brigands to try and drive the villagers out in order that sumo-samurai has to reveal himself and bring disgrace to the king... Well - you obviously aren't twisted enough. So uh, yeah - I hope that gives you some idea where to look for ideas. I'll call it "The seventh muskahound" and be silly with it - but the resources let you build a very serious game too. Programming as a watchdog -------============------------- Things freenet needs: 1. Auto reinsert 2. Aggressive prefetching 3. 'cache this forever damn you' - perhaps only spam the 'available here' msg? 4. A way to reserve a number of sockets solely for localhosts use 5. A web gateway (php shouldn't be too hard) 6. Compiling in C 7. A rewrite of the sockets engine comepltely by someone who understands deamons 8. A default data store with a whole bunch of links 9. Better defaults for timeouts etc. 10. An explanation of timeouts etc. 11. A disk saver mode - whereby files uploaded to local data store are NOT saved encrypted, instead the plaintext version is associated with the key. (Obviously upload the encrypted) After all - anyone can turn the key into the file just by requesting it. 12. A way for a datastore to REJECT striped files, or thorottle their bandwidth seperately, or store them seperately - so as to speed up index access, text access etc. at the expense of mass warezing. 13. On the plus side, things do seem to be improving. But I still get 'out of buffer space' if I try to run frost. Seems like the number of 'bad' (ie. started up then killed') clients out there is down to a sensible level, and routing is sorting itself out. Definately we need some kind of rapid 'please wait -finding new routes' mode for when a burst of new users arrives. -------============------------- 1. rms vs 'my server, my rules' 2. anticheat being seen as a challenge 3. Predictive and soft-failing desktops 4. Legends of Frome writeup as a 'here run this' module 5. Deep Impact given a world that has prepared. Sci-Fi short. Include temporal scanners. 6. Seaslip rewritup as a 'here run this' module 7. If I were going to redo seaslip, what would I change? {if an elephant is at the start, it must be at the end; Kuri, more backhints} 8. How to craft a rant - a piece of not news, followed by a conclusion that can be attacked from a wholly different direction thus masking your not-news 9. A 'design document' (suggested ways to write games for troops' SG1 game) 10. WHY do big corps/gubblements seem to want to control us? 11. The 'stumble then merge' plotwriting method (co-op with #21) 12. "First Day" hosting - a colo designed to quickly step in when someone is overwhelmed 13. Stupid teenagers sue television 14. Games too expensive? 15. Moon Moon Wolf Snake Frog => spirit protection 16. An email bomb designed purely to cost victims time. 17. Total anarchy state 18. Boredom as political power 19. anime in hmv - sandwiched between mary poppins and robin hood. 20. two wrongs make a what now? 21. Plot dispensation (auto generation of grand plot) (look at #11) Hooking your entry pass onto a belt buckle seems like a good idea, until you watch someone humping the sensor to try and get in.
