What if there was a boxing ring added?

Located in the college district, the boxing ring requires an entry fee of $250, which is refunded upon winning a match. You send a liberal there on Fridays only, and he wins or loses a fight based on heart, injuries, strength, agility, and martial arts. If you win a fight, you choose in between making a little speech about an issue, or receiving a cash prize. The amount of money or political sway you get depends on how powerful the opponent was. If you go on a day that isn't Friday, you can pay $20 to train various boxing related skills and find out how hard the next fight will be. Win or lose, you'll probably come home from a match with some bruises.

At C+ gun laws, the boxing ring turns in to a dueling ring, where gunslingers try to shoot their opponent before they get shot, as determined by chance and pistol skill. Only fools would get themselves killed like that, so you may only enter a duel if you have wisdom below 5.

At L+ gun laws where boxing gloves are illegal, the boxing ring becomes a forum. You enter contests in the same manner, only you debate politics instead of boxing. Science, intelligence, and all those types of skills and stats affect your chance of winning. If you lose a debate, public opinion on that subject shifts conservative. if you win the debate, the public opinion becomes more liberal and you receive a prize based on the int of your opponent.

Think this idea could work?

If you see a "unique" piece of web design, post it here. Good, bad, unusual, we want to see it all! No plugging your own site.

Here's a starter submission: http://www.yeaboing.com/

So I bought the Counterstrike complete pack while It was on sale on Steam, but I'm not sure what to play first. Would you suggest CS or CS:CZ or CS:CZDS or CS:S:B or CS:S? What's the difference between them?

This topic has been moved to Other Games.

I know this is off topic, but it's the only way to reach the upper-forumers. We have a contest for best B12ers of 2011 going on down in General Discussion, and we value your opinions.

Again, feel free to pelt me with rotten fruit for the off topic post, I just needed to get those of you who don't go below DF discussion to know about this. Otherwise it will be entirely lower forumer candidates that will be voted for, and that's not democratic if it's a contest for all of Bay12.
