Sure Wx is important for as well. That's why I am writing here :) >> BTW There are all kinds of rule sets in Mastermind that I know of: >> 1) The number of slots >> 2) The number of possible colors >> 3) Can there be duplicate colors? >> 4) Can there be empty slots? > > Maybe we could have some configured options to show which of these are set. > What options are you aware of above? I meant I'd like to be able to configure the game in the GUI to change any of those. I remember playing physical MM on 4-6 slots with I think 10 colors. Then advanced user allow the setting of duplicates and empty slots. >> I liked the image you sent though I think I'd prefer to have >> only one side. > The other side is `computer`, which as I said is not working, maybe this > could be a configured option.

I though it might be interesting to play against someone else via the network but I am not that sure that MM is interesting in that setting. Though it can be if you need to guess the same set of hidden colors and then you can use the results from the other person as well. It certainly can have a viral effect as people need peers to play with. But let's not forget we are talking about MM here :) Gabor
