i played at a place that worked like that, it was lame, the trend became the 'suicidal second' where once it got down to 3 or 4 players they would suicide into people to ensure that they would gain points and not lose points, kinda ruined ALOT of games.

In freestyle escalating speed, often the WORST players are killed last in a sweep simply because they have ended their turn and can't steal on the active players, who in turn could steal a kill on teh ended players.

At the end of the game, if your army color isn't on the board, you've been eliminated. Play terminator if you want points for not winning.

why? maybe he just wants to discuss it, he didnt use the form, wouldnt get near as many friendly responses there. and its a horrible idea so theyll just reject it anyway

I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said--"Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desart....Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings,
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away."

They may just be numbers on a screen, but in our minds they are armies, battalions and men. When the game is over there is only one army left standing. How can 2nd or 3rd get points? They are dead, no?

no, no, no, no!!! don't you know that the generation we are dealing with does not believe in working for things they earn? they don't keep scores in sports leagues and they all are "winners", they all get to graduate top of their class to avoid lawsuits by angry parents, they all get straight A's in college using extra credit assignments when they get a B or lower, they all expect to make 300K as soon as they graduate, and they all end up back at their parents house wondering why in the hell they aren't as successful as all the trophies and diplomas in their bedroom would lead them to believe!!!...-6cd
