I saw some cool little side games on a few other muds.
One had a chess game, that was pretty awesome.
Another few had lotteries, and basic luck type games with rewards.
I know on another mud they have people that you can just walk up to and gamble with with a pair of dice, or something, or even flipping a coin. I think it would be cool (although unneccesary) to add something like that to FL.
Yeah, lets all sit around in a pk mud and play checkers.
You have been +++ assassinated +++ !
Side games aee great for non pk muds where all people do is play them and quest, you cant really throw that into a pk mud and have people not complain about wanting a safe room for games, then you would get the abusers who hide in there, ect.

I like the idea of having a lottery.
We have sort of a lottery. It is actually dart, but it works more like a lottery.

It's not very fun when you lose though
Hey, this is FL. Losing is SUPPOSED to hurt. 
I'm all for it...to get rid of the PK factor, just be able to do it at distance
can have a record for it too 
come on othello!
the real problem comes in RPing your intelligence...hah...
come to think of it...these games (including chess) are more of a skill than intelligence probably anyways
you have the arcades on the forums. hehe, yeah, come on, othello, on that one.
but not IC against humans with record and cool ascii display 
I'm all for a lotto game! My character can't even pay for a gate golem nowadays!
Second time, there IS a lottery kind of game already.
That lotto game is too lame and the risk of death is too high. I say make a powerball and make it payable for 1gold coin for a quick pick/self choice and make it payable up to however much. I'm with Kahlos I'm always broke *** poor.
Hehe, gave me an idea. Wonder how much it would cost to condie a char at that game? 
With no resurrections? Over 900,000 gold if you're extremely unlucky. Otherwise more.
There is already dicing already. Easily RPed and no graphics to boot. I used to dice with my WM in CC. I wonder how the dice material gets decided... all Ogres get stone or something?
Evil get bone, Neutral get stone, Good get ivory.
I want a betting system, which allows you to bet on fights held in the milieu.

Someone should just roll a character that is to be a bookie and offer odds on PKs or arena battles against wights etc. (Im pretty sure you cant fight on the arena v other characters still). I thought about a bookie character a while ago me being a betting man.
Example:
Who will be first to collect Islildien's bounty?
A Knight: 5:1
A Syndicate: 3:1
A Watcher: 5:1
A Trib: 10:1
A Nexus: 20:1
6: Uncaballed: 4:1
Or something like that.
So if you see someone doing this in game, it's probably me.
Lots of fixed fights will probably happen though.
