    I'm toying with the idea, would be pretty simple UI... A web based game, something that would only take a few minutes a day to interact with. You house snails, you breed snails (they aquire characteristics from each parent plus some random gene mutation.)

    You pick two snails from your stable to enter into each race and give them instructions: such as "race your fastest" or "try to mate with a target snail" during the race.. (either to slow the opposition down while they mate so your other snail wins, or you want to get your snail gravid and pass on the genes from the target snail Into your stable). The snails used would be hermaphrodites.

    Thinking of having a "Stable" Championship and a "Snail" championship. (Comparable to WDC and WCC in F1) snails would only live a few seasons meaning you need to be smart about breeding the next generation.

    You wouldn't actually see the stats of what genes your snails have... You would have to infer it by how fast they move.

    Is this as likely to happen as the mafia programme?

    Probably. I only write about 5% of the ideas I have.

    Actually, I got the idea whilst considering starting to write the mafia program finally... But then I thought... I don't often have large blocks of time, so I'd probably write it and then not get to try it out myself... So I decided to write something that would take up less time a day to play. (Once written).

    New Brighton is not in Liverpool it is a run down Victorian holiday resort on the Wirral where every other house is a cannabis farm.

    I've had several projects I've written. Back before not 606 there was a F1 forum I managed that I wrote the forum software for (there wasn't easily ready made solutions back then so I wrote my own).

    I used to have an F1 type game online. There's a whale killing game I had online for a while.

    I don't have anything currently online that I will admit to though.

    I'm surprised RHC doesn't move there. Probably not much difference in time to commute to Northwich from there than Latchford.

    Yep. It's short for woollyback. It originally referred to people in the surrounding area who brought sheep-skins on their backs to be sold in the port.
    Now it just means anyone from the mysterious "outside" that you consider a bit dim and relatively uncultured.
    So, the rest of the world basically. <ok>

    Hmm I’d want to see some stats so I can work out which is best. A simple out of 10 rating for speed, stamina, life expectancy that way you can mate two snails in strong areas to get a good mixed snail.

    Customisable anails would be good, being able to adjust shell design, obviously give them names.

    Snail colours would be genetic. But their "outfits" would match team colours... Like in F1. I was planning on allowing renaming of snails.

    What I was envisioning was not being able to see the actual "speed Gene" stats, but you can send your snails to test tracks in the off season to see how fast they are. Your assistant would also rank the snails in your stable.
