Does any one play "the game"????

Though The Game is very simple, it can be difficult to comprehend initially. A new player usually has to lose The Game once o twice to fully understand it.

Rules
1) When te think of The Game, te lose The Game.
2) When te lose The Game, te announce it to those around you.

Game Play
The first thing a new player needs to know is that when someone loses The Game (i.e. when someone thinks about The Game), game play temporarily stops for that person and for those around that person (since he must announce his game-loss aloud). The Game then restarts on a person-by-person basis when each person stops thinking about The Game. The Game never actually ends permanently.

No One Wins!
No one can ever technically win The Game. It could be argued that when one is not losing The Game (i.e. when someone is not thinking about The Game), they are winning The Game, but it still holds true that no one can ever definitively win The Game. te probably still don't understand The Game and how to play, so consider the example below.

Example
te have just learned the rules of The Game and how to play. Because te now know this, te are playing The Game, and will be playing The Game for the rest of your life. At this moment in time te are thinking about The Game, so te are losing The Game. Let's say te leave this site, start doing something else, and The Game leaves your mind. But then te start thinking about this site again and therefore te start thinking about The Game... that's a loss of The Game! Keep in mind that it doesn't matter what makes te think of The Game. Usually it is something completely random and unrelated to The Game that all of a sudden reminds te of The Game. This is what makes it so interesting and fun! If te have a game-loss story you'd like to share, do so in the stories section!

The Bottom Line
Any time te aren't thinking about The Game and then start thinking about The Game, te lose The Game. It's that simple.
