i have had an idea for a while, tell me what you think.
i thought it could be fun if the game inventors put out a 'xmas pack', 
anyone who wants to contribute a game (zrf) can, and we put it all 
together, and release at cv site xmas eve. This is NOT a competition.
i have thought of a couple of good ideas for games, i think, anyway see 
what you think. (idea numbers 3 and 4 main ideas)

1. people who have an already existing game could release a variant of 
that game, or release with different graphics.

2. old histroic variants of shogi and shatranj etc could be done with 
different graphics, anything not already done would be ok .. example 
would be ancient shogi variant done with alfaerie graphics etc.

3. Now an interesting idea i think would be people could contribute a 
'funny/joke/silly' game, because people do not normally release these 
types of games, not being serious enough etc. With all the weird and 
wonderful game inventors around, i'm sure people could make, or already 
have, some cool games. It would be fun to see.

4. not sure about this, but maybe another idea for a game could be 
'bizzare' ... of course 'bizzare' games can be completely serious,
still, 
it could be an idea.

5. people could just do a game for the 'xmaspack', with a 'xmas'
related
theme, graphics, etc etc, or, you could just do a game, it doesn't even
have to chess (yes?).  

if the name 'xmaspack' is unsuitable, then 'newyearpack' or whatever.
anyway, it just sounds like it could be a fun idea, what do you think?
