it IS mine   :-)

I'd argue that if there's already a DIFFERENT game called virusses, then
we'd do best to avoid names like viri, virii, viruses, etc. If there's
some kind of copyright on the name "game of life" (is there really? I'm
sure I've seen a COMPLETELY different "game of life" board game in the
UK, looks more like monopoly), then we can't very well call it anything
like that either. We could go for something COMPLETELY different like
"survival", "species", or "animals"?

How about "2's company 3's an orgy", which seems to be a nice summary of
the rules?   :-)
