seems like there's probably a better way to do this but a fun idea nonetheless...reminds me of the gps/vr monitor glasses based pacman game from some time ago which was based around city grids. Somehow though I don't think people running around the city pretending to plant bombs or throw them at each other would go over too well.

I don't know if we have a spot for nifty webcomics but considering what they tend to do (even when under 100 archived strips) I felt a "Stuff to Waste your Precious Time With" categorization was well deserved.

Some strike close to home:

(even down to the discussion of ropes and pulleys)

Others might be interesting ideas:

(see post-comic note on near useless items...not items that are harvested over the course of ten minutes that go away upon exiting the dungeon ;P......that said, a pair of those self balancing staffs could make for nifty stilts Very Happy
