Here's something I have in mind that shouldn't be too hard. Who can make the best text adventure. No sprites, no moving around with ASCII characters. The whole game consists of typing what you want to do.
This contest will end.... whenever I feel like it. I just hope anyone bothers joining.

PJ, where the hell have you been. Get your arse on MSN, NOW!

Can the game have any graphics? Like "You ran into the evil Un-runnable home-compiled Wolf3d.exe." and then it displays a picture of the evil exe? Or does it have to be pure text?
f only life let you press CTRL-Z.

Not a roguelike, man!
Interactive Fiction.
And no, it is not easy at all. In fact, it is very difficult.
Maybe I shall dust off my ol' parser and add a little and simple game to it. The parser itself will make you POO

Actually... When I made my "toonski" account, I had forgotten this one even existed (I guess I just registered here to entertain Wildcard back when he was QB45's head cheese). I tried to rename myself Jofers, since I've always liked that name better, and it didnt change for some reason. I somehow moseyed on over to the member list and discovered Jofers was the 8th name ever registered here, so I ran down a list of my old passwords until I hit it.
