The Game meme
If the subject line means anything to you - sorry *hehe*.
If, however, you are not playing, but would like to -- then below I present for you THE GAME...and the rules. There is a condition...only keep reading if you REALLY want to know because by reading further you enter into agreement to PLAY (forever).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE GAME
Rule #1) Once you choose to learn about The Game, you are NEVER not playing. Ever.
Rule #2) The object of The Game is to forget you are playing The Game.
Rule #3) Every time you remember (or are accidentally reminded) that you are playing The Game - you must declare - out loud so others may be informed of your progress - "I just lost the game!" -- the more creatively you can do this, and the wider the audience, the better.
Rule #4) After you lose The Game, there is a 30 minute window where you can't lose (and should not declare a loss), should you again remember that you are playing The Game (or be reminded by someone or something). This is to prevent a perpetual loss loop from forming.
A-Kon 2008 addendum
Rule#5) Theoretically every 30 minutes, you have a chance to lose the game (assuming back-to-back 30 minute windows of peace). However, it is cheating to do anything during your own 30 minute window that would theoretically damage your own ability to fulfil the object of the game (which is to forget you are playing). Therefore you cannot run around with a sign that says anything about the game (for example) because you'd be actively remembering that you are playing in order to do so. You also cannot set alarms to go off at the end of your 30 minute window because this will only serve to push you into a loss loop.
