Re: ascii art game! was: (Re: my first post feedback me please)

So is anybody going to try making that?  Are you a programmer
Faux_Pseudo?  Programming those algorithms seems like quite a task.  I
don't even know how you would begin.  What are some examples of what is
allowed in ascii-art that the program AI could actually do?  Likewise
what is not?  I know that a tab is not allowed, others?  You see
ascii-art is so different to each artist.  It would be very hard to say
this is what you can and can't do because each artist likes it to look
different.  Does anybody have some set rules that would work, or that
program may never be.
