Ok, I know how we usually have that daily chat thing here at TO (if you've never been there, you proably havent been a member long enough). I know its cool and all, but sometimes it dosent last that long, people get bored and stuff. So while surfin around on starmen.net I found an old game that I used to play a while ago w/ some friends. Its an online version of tag and hide and seek using earthbound characters. Plus it can be used as a chat, its a win win situation here! 
So tell me what you think. Here's a link to download the program starmen.net/fangames/files/SeekTag3.zip The way to get it working is, someone runs that game off there IP address. Belive me, its real cool.

4 questions: 1. How do you close the window once you start playing? (I know you can press alt, control, and delete but there is no close...) 2. How do we connect to someone's IP? Where's the log in? 3. How many people can play at once? 4. When you were playing, was it a lag whore like the Tank game?
2. When you load up the game, it shows someones IP (127.yadda yadda yadda) all you would have to do is put in someones IP, like mine, then we'd all put in mine and we'd all be connected.
3. Well, in the README.TXT file it dont say, but im guessin any amount can play, but less people the smoother.
4. Ok, for this im not sure, but i remember when i played with a couple people it wasnt bad, until AOL started disconnected me when i was runnin it off my IP heh.
I know it might turn out to be shit, but i think it deserves to try. |

Theres Alt + F4 for closing, which might be easier.
And Esc works too.

EDIT: It says 15 people per server, well, we never have more than 10 people in our chats anyway. |

For the seek & tag game, you just need to click on the link to download the game.

Is teh game primitive?

The games pretty good  You can get some fun moments too - 3 of us all hid in the top of the arcade behind each other, then "IT" came in and all these balls flying about as you try and make a laggy escape. That lag was the only problem with it, that and some weird effects ( everyone stuck in the corner or behind a sign  ) Sometimes the chat stop functioning too, but its worth a try.  |

Ok, this game has it's ups, and its downs. First off, me, Crono, and a few of my friends tested it out, we found that when you use that chat function, that game tends to mess up  which means it isnt going to replace our usual chat. And I didnt notice any lag, but when the other characters moved, the movementes were kinda spaced out, like he would be moving around, but the animations werent all there. But it was pretty fun.

Last night our usual chat team played it for about 2 hours straight, the game is addicting and it's gret fun with many people. The game is not perfect, the chat doesn't work to well and the psi blast pretty much have seizures.
