lately been on a card game stint, and was wondering what kinds of mechanics would be viable for using in a lojban card game. any ideas?
scrabble would be too easy, given that the morphology and lexicon are so easliy defined (on the other hand, this removes the frustration of natlang scrabble...).mao could be a good game? or translating any games terminology into lojban?as far as things which are specifically lojbo, i can't think of any.
I was thinking about something along the lines of rummy, but the 'runs' would be legal lojban valsi, so the cards would be vowels, consonants, and a sprinkling of y'y and the like. I wonder if including consonant pairs would be a good idea.
oh, have you ever played quiddler? it sounds just like what you described.http://www.quiddler.us/
Well, there's vlalikei, which is the word-chain-game. Players say one word after the other, trying to make up the most complex, but meaningful sentences, trying to trip up other players. There's a channel for it on freenode #vlalinkei.
