A Field of Stones
Location: M6 (East and slightly north of NewHome)
In Brief: A covered pavilion in the grasslands where someone has set up a place for playing Go, the board game.
Owner(s): WolphStrykes and Gamina
NPCs or Staff? None; self-guided
Features: A single storyable room environment with a Go board. Programmed events take place outside the pavilion while the players look on.
Memento(s)? No
Beds: No
Description: This place was devised as a programming and page layout experiment by Gamina to see if she could devise a way for two people to story while playing a game of Go, and keep track of the game visually by means of a gridlike page layout.
It takes its name from one of the terms by which the game is known in Korea, which, translated, means a field of stones.
At present the site consists of a placeholder made to appear as if two players have just momentarily stepped away from a game in progress.
Plans are for a behind-the-scenes set of programs by which the players can manipulate the playing pieces without having to directly access the place programming.
