A simple game of Hot Potato called 'Pass the H Bomb' which I designed while bored at work. The basic premise is you have an imaginary bomb which can be passed around the channel with a random fuse. The person who is caught with it when it goes off gets punished. Instructions are included at the top of the snippet, along with settings to change the way the game is played. To enable the game, use /enablehbomb, making sure you have checked the settings first, especially the channel setting. To start a game in the channel designated, type `passthehbomb.

  ;Pass the H Bomb
  ;Script by Alfreido
  ;Wednesday, 5th October 2005

  ;All settings you can change are below, followed by a description of what they do
  ;If you change settings, you must type /enablehbomb to set the new settings
  ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  set %lowbombtimer 5
  ;-- Set's the least amount of time the fuse of the bomb can have --

  set %highbombtimer 20
  ;-- Set's the most amount of time the fuse of the bomb can have --

  set %chan #alfpriv
  ;-- Set's the channel the script will run in --

  set %punishment 1
  ;-- Set's the punishment of being the person to hold the bomb when it explodes
  ;it can be one of 3 values:
  ;0 = Nothing happens
  ;1 = Devoice
  ;2 = Kicked from channel
  ;Note that you must have ops if you want the bottom 2 to work --

  set %noreturn 1
  ;-- Sets whether you can return the bomb to the person who passed it to you.
  ;1 = No returns, 0 = Yes, you can return --

  set %idleprotection 1
  ;-- If equals 1, you cannot throw the bomb to anyone who has been idling more than
  ;the value of %idlethreshold. If 0, you can throw the bomb to idlers --

  set %idlethreshold 300
  ;-- Sets the amount of seconds that a person has to idle for before being protected
  ;by idle protection, only useful if %idleprotection = 1 --

  set %easymode 0
  ;-- If %easymode 1, the game goes into easy mode, where the fuse of the bomb is given
  ;when the game starts. I strongly recommend you don't play this, there is more
  ;suspense when you don't know when the bomb will explode --

  set %meplaying 0
  ;-- If 1, people can throw the bomb to you as well. --

  ;-- END OF SETTINGS --
