The Game

[Hezor]

Whoa, strip #606 almost made me lose The Game, fortunately i am protected by xkcd's Mind-Antivirus. ;)

Did anyone else think about The Game?

[RMS Oceanic]

Well now I did! :smallfurious::smalltongue:

Eh, I revel in my losing.

[Studoku]

Damn you and your game losing making abilities.

[Witrana]

No, dammit, it did NOT make me think that, but I'm thinking it now.

... I lose. :smallannoyed:

[Hezor]

Ach, feel free to use this soft - http://xkcd.com/391/ ;)

[someonenonotyou]

aww crap now i did:smallfrown: at least im not the only one

[Mauve Shirt]

I've won the game.
There's a thread in SMBG for this, perhaps we should lose it over there (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=67577) and somehow turn this into an OOTS discussion.

I think the point of this thread wasn't to make people lose the game but to see how many lost it due to the strip, however a bonus side effect is that it does cause anyone who reads this to lose the game as well.

Precisely ;) Besides, one of the rules is to inform others when you lose the game. Still you can use link to xkcd and go live a life of freedom ;)

I is so confused... aside from what is in 606, what the hell is everybody talking about?

[eyeofsaulot]

Right when I read panel 5, I immediately lost. I don't see how one couldn't...

[xyzzy]

I, too, lost The Game.

I strongly suspect that was intentional on the Giant's part.

Ah, OK. it's something I don't give a dire rat's hairy behind about. Got it. :smallwink:

Thank you, both, for the clarification.

[Warlord JK]

Crap, you people all made me lose and I hate you all :smallannoyed:.

Anyway, in an attempt to turn this discussion to OotS, what do you guys think this means for Belkar? Is he going to be able to hold out on his "character growth" or will he end up losing or actually growing from it?

[jolus]

Oh... now I started losing as well :-(

This is the SECOND time I've lost the game as a result of the strip.

The first time being reading the strip itself of course, and the second time being this thread's title.

And that is how you win these things. Granted I can't lose, it never enters my thoughts once banished.

[Assassin89]

I do not care about the Game

The games in the comic are Dungeons and Dragons and Life.

[[TS] Shadow]

I just lost. CRAP! I guess this is the karma I suffer from taking down my "you lost the game" sig. *sigh*

[Deepkicker]

Curse you, villain!

[Flame of Anor]

[Optimystik]

XKCD, yo.
