Default does anyone else play 'the game'

No not the rapper, but 'the game' im not going to explain the rules as i wanted to see if anyone else here plays it or has heard of it.

If you have heard of it where did you hear about it, have you tried to spread the word of 'the game' and have you ever randomly met anyone else (who you dont know) that also plays 'the game'.

im not expecting a massive response, but would be interested to know how wide spread this phenomenon is.

So if you ask someone if they play the game, then you lose?

Perchance is this something to do with the "The Game" that is some real world based treasure hunt type game, that the film "The Game" is based on?

close, the basic rule of the game is if you think about the game at any point then you lose, and once you have had the rules explained you are then playing, and you dont stop playing the game.

Jerome: nah thats the not the game i was thinking about, although his does look slightly more interesting seeing as its about picking ladies up.

I've been playing The Game for about 7 years now.

Sometimes I wish I hadn't been introduced.

It's like the arrow on the Fed Ex logo (between the 'e' and 'x') - once you know of it, your innocence is gone forever, you can never forget it
