Mianrtcv's thread on Foldit got me to thinking...what else can we do with the power of gamers? Fight a war!
You control a live drone in the mountains of Afghanistan. Gathering intelligence with your unit, requesting strike approval, coordinating with your boys on the ground (other players/drones), etc. We would wipe the Taliban out in a month and scare the rest so bad they'd be afraid to blink.
One character type controls a drone that flies around looking for evidence of activity in what appears to be unoccupied mountainous territory. Between myself and a few dozen other players attached to our shared drone, we nitpick the days footage of its 1,800 mile plot. Comparing with historical footage, etc.
Ideas?
