Hell, just throw an army number in the center of each snake, say they can attack adjacent snakes, and have no bonuses beyond the basic +1 per 3 territs. I'd play that.

This illusion is called "snakes," by Akiyoshi. If you look around the edges, you'll see little forked tongues poking out of the whole mess.

Ya - can see the "tongues" - assumed they were y's for some unexplained reason!!

PS - if you want it to stop moving - then stop focusing on it...

It appears to move if your eyes move in the slightest... and it's really hard to actually hold your eyes still if you're focusing on something that appears to be moving... so it's an endless cycle, until you stop focusing.

But anyway... is this thing copyrighted? If not, and if you're not going to make a map out of it, I will. Serious. This site could use a simple, symmetric map.

Although it would be preferable if that map didn't cause people to have seizures and die :roll:

On another note - there are problems with symettrical maps - just ask the man I've just quoted.
