Ya so I got thinking about the Squad Tourney, and thought about how suspenseful the Squad Championship would be.
And thought how cool it would be to actually play/watch it! /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />

So I got this idea.

Why not create a game that could be watched by viewers using the F3 view, but the viewers are not actually playing the game. But the viewers would be able to watch anything/everything, whether or not they need eyes to see stuff (That will probably be hard to code I dunno /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />).

Maybe you could have a whole different team inside the game.
The team color would be black, and the Team Name would be automatically set to "Observing Team" (ie to the name "Not on a Team").

Like you know what I mean?
Wouldn't it be so amazing to watch the game that would decide it all, who is the best Squad of 2008, or even 2009 to come?

I know I would want to be in it.

Some criticism or building upon my idea is welcome.

This has been brought it over and over. Answer is no. I think you can find out why on Alleg Wiki.

I think that abbreviation should go into the wiki and common use /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

I'm 95% certain it isn't, but it wouldn't make a bad addition.

Usually though, "skill" is used to covertly mean "match the game exactly to my level of competence." Anyone who is at all worse than me should fail utterly (and humorously!) and anyone better is clearly too caught up in the game and their opinions shouldn't count.
