Did anyone else not realise that all those threads were games?

Great. Let's play "Global Thermonuclear War".

Do you have a copy of the Rules?

Or do we just make them up as we go along?

In this game there are no "rules".

One of the least satisfying rules of all: "No rules."

Oh well.
There's always Calvinball.

Unless there isn't.

In a global thermonuclear war there probably won't be anyone left to be "satisfied" about much of anything.

Where the survivors eventually lose as well.

Luckily "Joshua" figured that out. How about a nice game of chess, instead?

But then I still love the game "Diplomacy". It does have rules, but not many of them. And you can always negotiate with another player to break some of them anyways.

I knew they were games. But games can be serious. Answer a question with a question is philosophical often. And lots of the games are inspirational. Did you know really though fridgemagnetman or are you jesting?

Firstly it's clearly about turnips.

It's just didn't occur to me to categorise it at the start.
I just kept responding to new posts .
Then people mentioned games.
I though oh they've got pac man or something then I went looking.

Categories are only temporary structures. When is a game not a game? Oooooeeeeoooo.
