The Game

Very big at CAR S2 '06. RA Ian, who has been medically dead multiple times, is reported to have more points than anyone in history.

Rules

1. You are always playing the game.

2. Everytime you think about the game, you lose for half an hour.

3. Dying gives you one point.

Rules at Lancaster

1. To know the game is to play the game.

2. If you think about the game, you lose. You can lose once every half-hour.

3. If you die within a half-hour of losing, you lose forever.

4. If you die outside of the thirty minute period, you get a patch. The only person known to be eligible for a patch at the current time is Phil Gunn.

5. Allegedly, if you die on your birthday, you win. Which conveniently would Shakespeare a winner, but otherwise is just not particularly interesting.

Note: In reference to an event of staggering embarressment for a young couple from LAN.05.2, the phrase "I lose" is often accompanied at Lancaster with a 'fingerjob' (using the first three fingers of the left hand to stroke the extended index finger of the right hand).
