Super sheep after ten mins !!

This is the game that has temporarily replaced worms in my life. It will probably take you several runs (or "timelines") to get into it, but it will be worth it.

Come on guys, sign up!

I couldn't join the worms2d.info mumble server yesterday, and I thought it was because my version was out of date, but when I updated I'm still getting this message: "Server connection failed: Connection refused." I've googled it and other people have this problem and seemingly can't solve it!

Can YOU still connect? Do you have any suggestions for me? Should I/we use another program?

Annoying that this is happening just after CWT streaming has resumed...

I've had an idea for a new game type, based on the classic paper-and-pencil game Battleships (wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battleship_(game)). I'm not sure how much fun it would be, but never mind that. Here's the lowdown.

There are two players who have two teams each, one with one worm and one with six worms (i.e. total worms = 1+6 + 1+6 = 14). The inventory contains invisibility, lots of teleports, and unlimited super sheep and maybe unlimited pigeons as well. Worms are initially randomly placed on the map, and all healths are 1. Here's what the map might look like:



The two single worms are manually teleported onto the launch pads in the centre. These are the attacking worms. The worms in the teams of 6 must be made invisible and then teleported into the rectangles. One team goes to the left, the other to the right. One worm is alone, two must be adjacent, and three must be adjacent, where adjacency can be horizontal, vertical, or diagonal. The single worms will launch super/aqua sheep to seek and destroy the worms in the opponent's team of six. The invisible worms in the teams of six will always skip their turns.

Terrain will be destructible so worms will plop and you'll know which rectangles you've previously attacked. The winner is the first player to kill all the worms in the opponent's team of six.

As with Battleships, if you kill a worm, you'll naturally attack the rectangles around it on your next turns in case it's a group of 2 or 3. And a new factor here is that worms in the middle rectangles are slightly safer than those around the edge, as the latter are easier to hit.

Okay, that's the concept. I don't know if anyone, including me, will bother to test it out but I wanted to share it with y'all. 

Everyone can see it's happening but no one can believe it. Leicester City, my local team, are 5 points clear at the top of the English Premier League with 7 games to go. This time last year we were at the bottom. What's happening now is comparable to what Nottingham Forest did under Brian Clough in 1978. It's the stuff of football dreams. We finished 2nd in 1929 and 3rd in 1963, so this will be our first ever league victory, and by the way we've been FA Cup runners-up four times, so we've never had that trophy either.

So how has it happened? Nigel Pearson built a damn good team, and after Claudio Ranieri took over, he continued the momentum. He's determined to win a league for the first time and most of the players want to prove themselves too, old and young. But crucially, the usual top 4-6 teams in the league are all playing shit this season, which has paved the way for Leicester. When other smaller teams have played exceptionally well in this league in seasons past, at least one of these top clubs tended to be too good for them. But not this time! Only Arsenal are their usual selves, i.e. finishing third.

History is being made at the King Power stadium! Remember the motto: Foxes never quit!

WE'RE TOP OF THE LEAGUE! WE'RE TOP OF THE LE-E-EAGUE! WE'RE LEICESTER CITY, WE'RE TOP OF THE LEAGUE!

omg @ the "khamsikaze" at the end of r1 !
