C.U. Fields Team for Online Game

November 19, 2007 - 1:00am
By Niyati Harneja

With social networking at its peak, a new type of “object-oriented” networking has surfaced in the form of online games. GoCrossCampus, an online game supported by the Cornell Class Councils, was created by Yale and Columbia students. Similar to Risk, the object of which is to gain territory by attacking enemies, GoCrossCampus can be played inter-campus or intra-campus between college students.

Currently, the Ivy League Championship Tournament is underway. Played between the eight Ivy League universities across a map of New England, the game allows players to position two to three troops everyday. Although players can make their moves individually, the best method of capturing territories is by deciding on the positioning of troops as a team.
