MsSolo 1 Posted January 22, 2004 Anyone else here playing The Game? You'll know if you are: you'll just have sworn at me for starting this thread ^_^ The aim of The Game is to forget The Game. You remember, you lose. As soon a you learn of The Game you are playing The Game. You will always be playing The Game. Okay, the point of posting it here, other than to irritate people: So far it seems to be a mostly English phenomenon, from people I've asked on other boards, though I do know a few Americans who have been sucked in. I'm just trying to work out how old it is (oldest estimate so far is about 7 years) and how widespread. I know that were I to walk down my local high street on a busy Saturday and yell "Remember the Game" I'd get some hideuosly dirty looks. I was at a maths Lecture in london (see, even Maths has school trips! ^_^ ) and someone mentione it, and a group of complete strangers all turned around yelling "No!" So, tell others about The Game. Do your best to forget to The Game. You will be playing it for the rest of your life. It's a conspiracy, I tell you, a conspiracy! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MsSolo 1 Posted January 23, 2004 Really? No one here's heard of The Game? Of course, that means I've just made myself lose it, every time I come on here. The aim of the Game is to forget the game. Quite simple, really. You learn about it, you forget it, you remember and you lose. Except for some reason losing doesn't mean it ends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy 60 Posted January 23, 2004 So... whats the point to this game, then? lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsl 7 Posted January 23, 2004 You have to forget the game, but in order to know that you won, you have to remember that you forgot, and by remembering that you forgot, you automatically lose. It's not a game, it's one of those "Everything I say is a lie" things. :roll: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chozen 1 Posted January 23, 2004 Yeah... So say if someone made a thread about 'The Game' then what you'd have to do is say you don't remember any game, even if it has a different name but I still know what game your on about, that's if you know what the game is.. nope.. I'm not sure what you're on about, dear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
