AtanZeko, I got curious and peeked under the hood. A t first glance it looks like it was made with a Release Candidate of Game Maker 8 which would mean it was meant for testing I believe in 2009. It would be hard to think that modifying it would be violating anything as whomever has created the UI, certainly doesn't own it. That'd be tough with Bushiroad looking over your shoulder anyway. Which now reminds me that I wish they'd release the BF Game in the US.

Anyway, anyone could modify this UI and add whatever they want. Game Maker is a sandbox type that can do rpg's, cfg's, etc... So, if someone really wanted to, they could adjust everything in it and get it as close to the official rules as possible. The problem looks like that it was difficult for Joel to get permission to update the cards and text, etc..., so that would put him in an akward position if he changed their UI, even though it isn't technically their UI (if you know what I mean).

Since he already has a good relationship with them, someone else would have to do it and I'm not sure anyone would feel like taking that on since there is one that exists already.

I've looked into doing one with play timings inserted, etc.. so people stop yelling at each other...or at least start yelling at the program instead... the text in-game can get nasty quick. When I was testing, I had someone call me a cheater in the waiting room. Then they saw I was testing and actually helped me out. They were using Ein thinking I was bailing because their life was 12 I think. Look at the bottom line, it's the funniest. Obviously it didn't stop functioning after a short period;)
