So there I was, back in school and already too bored to pay attention, with a blank piece of paper before me. Before I knew it, I'd drawn a board, and this thing resulted:

I'd like to test this game, see if it's any fun, etc. I've played against myself, but that's a tad predictable. Nevertheless, it does seem to have some potential.
This is how it works:
There are four players. You are either X, O, E, or T. X goes first, and you take turns clockwise (so T goes last). You can place a "piece" anywhere that is up to two spaces away (on a diagonal, horizontal, or vertical) from any of your other pieces. So, basically, any square two spaces away is legal, as long as it isn't a chess-knight move (in case you play chess).
If you surround another player's piece with two of your own, that piece becomes your own. However, you can NOT do this to a whole row of pieces, but only to one at a time. So, for example, if you had Ea, and another player had the rest of the E row (except for Eg), and you placed a piece at Eg, you would NOT gain control of any other pieces. If, on the other hand, your opponent only had Eb, and you placed a piece at Ec, then the piece at Eb would become yours.
You win by having the most squares at the end.
That's the rules as I have them now, but like I said, I'm still testing this out. Anybody wanna give it a try?
