We only really have something similar to one of the above, called Freeze Tag. The participants join the game and are put in the Arena (an enclosed area of 44 rooms consisting of different environment types, etc). They get their normal abilities stripped so that everyone is equal, and they get a freeze wand. When the game starts, they run around trying to freeze each other. If you get frozen 3 times, you're out, BUT you lose 1 freeze every 30 seconds. Freezing someone takes away equilibrium for 2 seconds, so you can only do it once every 2 seconds. Further, you can't freeze someone who has just frozen you for 3 seconds. You can also freeze people from adjacent rooms. To make things more interesting, there is a lovely little fairy who starts tracking down the last person to use the FREEZE command. Upon finding that person, the fairy will freeze him once, and wait for someone else to use the Freeze command. Last man/woman standing wins. --matt _______________________________________________ MUD-Dev maillist - MUD-Dev#kanga,nu <A HREF="http://www.kanga.nu/lists/listinfo/mud-dev">http://www.kanga.nu/lists/listinfo/mud-dev</A> </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <UL><LI><STRONG>References</STRONG>: <UL> <LI><STRONG><A NAME="00631" HREF="msg00631.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Gender and Mud Development</A></STRONG> <UL><LI><EM>From:</EM> "Jon A.
