I Just Lost the Game
Monday, August 8th, 2005 12:15 pmBut that means you can play now. The rules:
If you think about the game, you lose the game. You must announce that you have just lost the game, and everyone else gets a 15-minute grace period in which they are allowed to think about the game (because you brought it up).
Once you stop thinking about the game, you start winning the game again. You could win the game for hours, days, even years!
I have found that I lose this game quite frequently, whereas people who don't care about the game win all the time.
