On the subject of hide n seek. Isn't it unplayable now anyway? It's not been an official staff game since I started so I've never done it, not finding the concept that interesting myself I'll admit- I'd rather play than sit in one spot waiting to be found.
Maybe I just have too many memories of being the one left when everyone else got bored of looking, not sure. :-[
But the fact is that currently you are invisible to players on your map unless you move. So if a staff member, big avatar and all, is on a map all by themselves when they start the game- they can literally never be found. Unless we actually make a point of running about waving 'here I am' whenever we see someone nearby- sort of defeating the point of it, no? This to me is a real game killer.
However, as CG I'm more likely to have time to run mini events like that- and more than happy to do so, I just can't think of one myself(or one that the powers that be approve of so far) so keep the ideas coming!
