Hi, I run a community website for a chatsite. We have our own Truth or Dare room, but I want to take it one step further and add a "Spin the bottle" T or D game on the site... Does anyone know if there is such an applet available? i would think an applet to which people could connect and play by actually spinning a bottle image.. there doesn't need ot be any chatting.. we could use the chatroom for the chatting, but just the "Spin the Bottle" for the extra effect to the game... If anyone knows of a way how to accomplish this then please send me an email.. I would be very thankful. For programmers.. I'd pay $50 for such an applet.. it only has to allow users to connect and to be able to spin the bottle... it has to be a circle and the names would have to be around the "board" so the bottle can actually land on a name... my email: syntax@hetnet.nl Thanks!

Implementing your idea might be more complicated than you think. The applet'd f.e. have to get the name of the participants. Do you have something like a plaintext list of the current participants on the server? Or could you provide the names as tags in the webpage? Are dynamic updates needed? I can't imagine someone implementing your project for $50. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ name: Jens Tinz email: jens@gamemakers.de home: http://www.gamemakers.de

The questions and chatting will be done in our regular chatroom... we just need a visual effect for a spinning bottle.. Look at the image.. http://www.volano.f2s.com/spin.jpg is it possible to let users add themselves as players (their name maybe stored in a flat text file??), and then have the SPIN THE BOTTLE button make the bottle-image spin and point at a random player? * No need for scores * No chatting * Must be a user-count (after 8 players the 9th can't add him/herself) It's just to enhance the gameplay.. right now we just imagine we are spinning a bottle *lol* and somebody just picks another chatter.. we wanna have more of a real game... Any ideas would be welcome... maybe it's more possible in DHTML with Layers or even a CGI script? Kind regards syntax@hetnet.nl

[...] I believe you don't need what you think you need - you will want everyone to see the same bottle spinning at the same time, producing the same result. That means you will need to use some server-side technology as well. -- __________ |im |yler tt@iname.com Home page: http://alife.co.uk/tim/
