SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

: How about this then: Rather than flags or balls or
: skulls, have those little exploding bugs from the
: first marathon as the "flag". Also, make
: them skitter away from the enemy to make it harder to
: "capture the flag". The only way to
: "stop" them is to shoot them which
: temporarily stuns them allowing you to run in and
: capture them. Once the player has both bugs,they both
: hook up and a timer starts. The player then
: has that much time to throw the bugs like a bomb. The
: blast radius is big any any player caught within is
: obliterated. *blah* points for killing a friend,
: *blah* points for killing a foe.

Kinda like Blast Arena then, except with a Blast Key which can run away from you. Blast Arena is kinda like a CTF-style game, except that each team has a key and a console. You have to run to the enemy base, grab the key, and bring it back to your console. When the key gets back, a countdown starts, and the doors to your team's base starts to close. When the countdown hits 1 or 0, the doors are completely shut, and everyone who ISN'T either in your base or in a special zone gets the hell nuked out of them/ air filled with acidic gas/ other horrible way of dying. There's also a deathmatch version of it, where there's one key and a safe zone on the map. When a player gets the key back to a console, the countdown starts, and the doors to the safe zone starts closin', like in the CTF version, but there's going to be brawls breaking out in the confined areas of the safe zones. If you're killed, you're going to be spawned *outside* the safe room, so you better run like hell or you're dead.
