Short description
MS-Hearts compatible network hearts game.
Proposed name
WBHearts
Full description
How about a "port" of MS-Hearts (I'm talking about the network Hearts card game that comes with Win95). Compatibility with the Win95 version would be a plus to add playability over LAN's and internet, etc...

Comments
this could be done if we A) Monitor the packets that the 95 game sends with a packet sniffer [simple] and B) base our version on its way of thinking [does one machine randomize the cards and deal them out so each machine knows what each machine has or does one machine randomize them and tell the others only what they get, etc], and use its protocol, only problem i see is connecting a BNC-based network [as most miggy network cards are] to a Cat-5 based network [most PC networks] without devoting a PC as a router
