Battleships

I am willing to coordinate a battleships game rp. I have an idea for a mechanism, but I need to know if anyone is interested.

lol...
anyway how is this going to work? i might do it

Yeah.I think before anyone commits, we need too know what you have planned.

I think I need to know how this works. Are you trying to base this off of the board game?

that would be a bit hard.

Basically, I post a grid. Everyone copies that grid to their computer, adds the positions of their ships, and then sends the picture to me.

Then, I use a randomiser to pair people up for games. These are turn-based, and I can inform people whether they have scored a hit or miss.

The games work in a tournament system, with winners forwarded into the cup draw, and losers of the first game put into the draw for the wooden spoon

Or people could try to use this: link

I would be willing to play...

Looks great....

i would play if we use the link that is flash-based. also, this could be a separate section of the forum for battleship tournaments, ect. (another subforum of roleplaying, probably would replace the galaxy rp)

either way ill do it, but for your way of copying the grid to your computer, do we both need to be online at the same time?

No, but I would need to confirm a hit or miss before your next turn. It is meant to be a long-term game.

And no, I don't think it should be in its own section.

so hows this coming along? we even doing it?

I need to know how many people want to do it. It needs more than two, really

i might. here's a whacky idea, you place your battleships somewhere in the forum and then the oppposer goes: ok, general:general chat...ok i'm kidding

Would be a short game.

I'll make this thread a poll too, so I can keep track of numbers more easily.

If i have time, then I might.

im not certain yet.
