So many years winning, just to lose today... Well played, sir!
I lost the game...
I too, have lost the game....AFTER 8 FREAKING YEARS OF WINNING IT!!!!
God dammit!
Bruh I had such a good streak.
*Deep sigh*
Listen here you little shit
Goddamnit
Aw tits
YOU FUCKER
got me good
I had a good few years running until you did that, mate...
Damn you. Also, wrong link, this is the link to the game https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Game_(mind_game)
Why'd you put this evil on me today, brother? Things will never be the same...
The link is exactly the same as mine. For some reason both links redirect on mobile but work fine on desktop.
Morpheus drinkin a forty in the death basket.
Aw JESUS!
Oh, for fuck sake!
The way to win the game is to do something else. Don't use your mindpower, just do some doomscrolling
I won because I meant to lose. Checkmate bitch!
What game? Since when was I playing a game?
It doesn't count if you say The Game. You have to make the person think of it on their own
That may be a local rule. The three rules I know are the rules on wikipedia which have been the same rules since I learned about it 25 years ago.
You cannot win the game though.
Also I lost last week so I'm not salty.
100 billion people won the game so it is possible
How did they win exactly? By not playing?
Rule 1 is: you are now playing the game.
You cannot win if you don't start playing.
Depending on the variation, it is held that the whole world, or all those who are aware of the game, are playing it at all times(from the wikipedia article)
So either everyone in the world is playing or only the people that know the game are playing
Minor correction, the Wikipedia article says it is alternatively expressed as - meaning that the expanded definiton which is "Everybody in the world who knows about The Game is playing The Game", implies the first definition is that you have to know before you play.
