I think IRC game would be awesome because it doesn't only require programming scills, but also imagination, as you are very limited.

Maybe a RPG-style IRC bot game, that could be interesting.

I finally cleared my sig after 4 years you're happy now?

Yeah, a dedicated channel for the bot, that's what I always do so I won't disrupt conversations in existing channels.

Come on we need at least one more vote to break the tie

Though if there is a tie how should I handle it?

Hmmm, i would say: new poll between the ties, so all the remaining voters who did vote on something else now have only choice between the ties...
None of my posts are meant offending... I you feel hurt by one of my posts, tell me ... So i can appoligise me and/or explain why i posted it

We have 3 close contenders and about 10 hours to go we'll see whether we have a tie then

yeah i think a quick(1 day) poll between the two would decide it

Just noticed, suddenly the irc bots are leading, maybe we won't have a tie :P
EDIT: How much time will we have again for coding?

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...

Yes we have 3 weeks for coding and unless someone makes it a tie in the next few hours teh irc bot seems like its going to win so start thinking of ideas

Will we be allowed to reuse some old code we made (like the basic irc connection) or shall we start everything from scratch?

You are allowed to reuse old code as long as it is not more then 15% of the code
See the FAQ on the Contest Thread and it should answer most of your questions

Also poll closes in <1 hour so get ready to start and get your final vote in

By the way, a suggestion I have for the next contest is that it excludes any IRC-themed contest themes, then the 3rd contest poll excludes any theme similar to the 2nd one, while bringing back IRC-themes except the specific one chosen in the 1st. Just to make sure that every contest are not just IRC bots, in order to reach an higher audience (for example, most people prefer graphical games, especially with the flood of menu-based programs on Ticalc.org, of which maybe only two or three are good).

Yeah I agree with that. no IRC bots for the next one and then maybe not let them be so much of the voting next time. Maybe only one idea per genre of idea next time?
