IDEAS:
Aegis: on the info sheet, could you add a line stating how much gold we have in
the bank?
Extreemist: OK OK OK, i got it, Meditation, it regens mana a little slower then
drunk, BUT, after its set, you have a certain # of ticks till you can fight or cast
spells, that drawback would balance the mana regen, but no sumble![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
Disaster: how much of a giant pain in the ass would it be to make BR accept more
characters than just standard ascii? would be kind of neat if we could do that
Extreemist: make weapons for you head so that headbutt acts like a regular attack

FUN WITH ANIMALS!!!
Here are a few games that you can play with animals. Some are quite simple to play and need only common household objects and easily found living creatures. Others are more complicated and are suggested for those of adventurous spirit. The games are for one player, except where indicated. Enjoy!!
1. The player is given a staple gun and is placed inside a large aquarium with a school of piranhas. The object is to kill the piranhas before being eaten alive.
2. (for 2 or more players) Each player gets a hammer, an unlimited supply of nails, and a cow. Without hammering any nails into its head, the first to kill her/his cow wins.
3. The player must wear bowling shoes and is given a large sledgehammer. She or he is then placed on a thinly frozen lake with a chihuahua. The player must kill the dog before smashing through the ice, falling in, and dying of hypothermia.
4. (for 2 or more players) Each player is given a lawn mower and is placed inside a gymnasium with a squirrel. The first to...well, you get the idea.
5. The player gets a .38 and a blue whale. The object is to kill the whale before it dies of infection.
6. The player is given a Ford Pinto and is placed inside a large gymnasium with a hippopotamus. The object is to kill the beast before the automobile ceases to function or simply explodes.
7. (for 2 or more players) This game must be played at a duck pond. Each player is given a pair of pliers and a large canvas sack. The player to collect the most ducks by using the pliers to lift the ducks by their bills and place them into the sack wins.
