    Subject: Re: Cards are NOT playable on turn based site ...
    KnightFighter: I think some card games would be hard to play on a turned based game site, but for example

    Black Jack - it would be easy to hit/double/split - have up to 10 other "real" players playing - then after all 10 make their move (within the time limit) - the "dealer"/computer plays against the ones who did not bust. [Each person starts with a set amount of coins - out of coins, lose - or possible play a set number of rounds with the person with the most at the last round wins.]

    Texas Hold 'em, Poker - Just go around - not too many notes would be needed.

    Rummy - simple enough, no notes would be needed.

    Some others might be a little more difficult, but possible some small "tweaks" to the rules where players play against the "house/computer" instead of against other live people could work for some games.

    For games where what the other player has in their hands can effect others, figuring out how to handle time outs will take a little planning.

    Subject: Re: this is one of my fav card games
    Snoopy: I learned that game many years ago while working as an extra for "The Babe" movie........ our friends use to play it all the time, but not anymore... they didn't like playing with me because I would figure out what my next 10 turns were - and I would make sure 100% sure that as I started running low on cards, I would always have the cards that I needed.......... they never liked to think that far ahead and we started playing uno all the time instead.

    Five Crowns looks interesting since it used a different type of deck - http://www.setgame.com/fivecrowns/index.html & http://www.areyougame.com/interact/item.asp?itemno=SET4001 (in case anyone else wants quick links to a descriptions)

    nodnarbo: Yea, I don't think it's a good idea to be able to edit a poll after it is up.... just for those reasons you mention...... it was most of a "joke" as another request to be able to do that..... but yea, probable not a good idea and if I had missed an option that I felt was very important, I would have just ended the poll and started a new one.

    Opps - I forgot to put my normal "no opinion" option for people to choose in the new feature request poll - sorry about missing that.

    I have a new feature request - being able to add an option after a poll has started without having to delete it and start a new one.

    Snoopy: I would not mind doing a general "what features would you like to see on BrainKing" poll (which of course is just opinion, and not neccessarly anything Fencer will do for the site - but just a tool to help see what the general opinions are.)

    Can anyone think of features requests that should be added to a poll if I were to make it?

  • An optional auto-pass / auto-move system which will make a pass or only move if none others are available. (with each person having the option to use it or not use it.)
  • Byes in elimination tournaments to allow them to start without getting them totally full.
  • In Gammon, being able to tell the difference between "race" & "bar" pieces
  • Allowing tournaments to start the next round once the winner is determined, even if all games are not complete yet.
  • Allow a player to set a maximum number of game limit for themselves
  • Be able to set a limit to the number of vacation days that can be used in certain games/tournaments. [for example, a tournament where vacations can be used, but only up to 5 days worth - more then that it is a time-out]
  • Set a BKR limit in ponds
  • New set of parameters in ponds (like starting with only 10 players - setting different amount of bonus or starting points)
  • Being able to show the "Move List" for certain games that it is needed - while keeping it hidden for others where it is not needed.

    Anything else anyone can think of that I should add to the poll if I were to make it?

  • If I get enough ideas - maybe I'll make it so you can pick the top 2 or 3 ideas (and not just the top one - since myself, I would like to see many of the listed requests)

    Subject: Re:
    Czuch: When I thought of doing this poll, I started listing placed and had a list of like 80 places. Plus places like Hawaii I know are popular here in the US, but I'm unsure places in Europe and other places vacation (and likely to want to live).

    So I decided to just stick with countries - and remove the "fun" ones on my original list (in space, under water) and remove the general ones (anyplace with a beach, someplace always warm) - yea... I could have easily had over 100 choices for this one....

    I was just about to put Gatorade... but I wasn't sure if it was offered outside of the US (and I wanted to keep it general).... then I almost put the generic "sports drink" - but decided... Naaa.... already have plenty of options.

    As a side note, I also hate drinking just plain water (unless I'm really thirsty) - but I drink it all the time now because I love a lot of the different additives you can add to the bottle water (like lemonade, Gatorade, etc....) My favorite is the Wal-Mart generic brand that turns the water into Apple flavor water.

    Anyway.... don't drink as much Mountain Dew anymore..... and will drink 1-3 bottles of water a day now (with added flavor)

    MadMonkey: yea.... I knew I would miss some (well miss a lot since there are so many different drinks around the world)

    Well even though this board is called "Opinion polls", I consider them mostly just polls.

    So yea, some will be "fact" while others will be more "opinion".

    Hopefully I will try to mix them up - some more of a "fact", while others more of an "opinion" - and hopefully mix them up to have some deal some-what with BrainKing, while others have nothing to do with BrainKing at all.

    Again - suggestions for poll are always welcomed.

    ScarletRose: Good ones. I could not think of anything good, but wanted to at least put one out to see how it works, so I choose one of yours! (plus added 1 other answer in case they don't want to answer)
