#12JS events using in these JS only apps conflict with Pentadactyl and Vimperator for me. :(
EDIT: It's the extensions' fault, just to be clear. Also, I'm amazed by the addictive nature of this simple game!

#13Really great! I think it was on "really big" canvas with multiple snakes, but two snakes in real time are good too. Um, are those anonymouses are messing up the score? Especially in loss/win ratio.
Btw, where do you host this app?

#14Very fun :)
I used to play a lot of nibbles back in the day...
Small bug: over 10.0 W/L and it stopped showing up in the leaderboards: http://i.imgur.com/NChEp.png
Once I lost a 2nd game it appeared again.

#15This is maddeningly addictive. However, "draws" are a little weird -- I often saw my opponent run directly into me, yet we get a draw? Shouldn't that be my win?

When I played, it looked like if you run into each other in the first 1-3 segments of the head end, it will declare it a draw. However if the player runs into you further down the chain you'll win.

#17Nice job, spent a good 30 minutes playing this :) Brain virus.
I encountered some bugs where there was a guy who couldn't lose. He just kept going straight and when he ran into me he didn't die. Maybe someone cheating by editing the JS?
Also, I noticed some glitches where other players' snakes had a really high velocity. Or was that a power up that I didn't get?
Tangent: Does anyone notice CRAZY GC pauses on Firefox, or something that appears every 5 seconds or so? It makes the game almost unplayable on Firefox. Switched to Chrome to play it.

#18At one point I was playing two games at once, from what it looked like! Otherwise, very cool and a lot of fun. On Firefox 12.0

#19It should not be a draw when player A runs into player B near player B's head. Player B should win.

#20As more people keep playing I've noticed it's starting to glitch.
Last game my opponents snake ran into me and I could tell that he was then done playing because his snake kept going in a straight line over and over. About a minute later it finally said I won.
Just a heads up.
