My biggest problem with this is I've gotten two opponents which didn't try to grow, just kept going in circles. They were pretty much guaranteed to win, since I eventually hit myself. Even if I hit them, it was just a draw.
Kind of silly, since they'd obviously get bored quickly, but still a problem.
I think a "need to eat" would fix this, e.g. tail gets shorter by one every unit-time (e.g. 10s).
Hey man, that was my strategy a few times.. seems like a legit way to play I think.
You can still win - just keep on eating, at one time a green point will suddenly appear in their path and it will make them lose (and you can get lots of points in the meantime).
