    Default Who Beats Who?

    Hi forum. I asked whether I could shamelessly promote myself by making one innocuous post, and the answer was yes, as long as it's very innocuous, so here it goes.

    I have created an amazing game by the name of Who Beats Who. You can find out all about it by clicking the link in my sig, but suffice to say, it is a game of hypothetical battles. From the rules doc:

    Kirk or Picard? Freddy or Jason? Andrew Jackson or Andrew Dice Clay? For years, debates like this have raged in the American consciousness. Admit it, for every time you’ve discussed politics or sports or Paleolithic art, you’ve had at least one conversation about who would kick whose ass in a fight. Well, now we’re going to settle some of these burning questions once and for all. More or less. Sort of. Really, it’s up for debate.

    In Who Beats Who, players take turns judging hypothetical bouts. The players who aren’t judging are selecting the participants, betting on the outcome, and playing cards to try to sway the fight one way or the other.
    You can order the game if you want to play it (and I really, really think you do) or just haunt my facebook page and see what it's all about. If you feel so inclined, become a fan. There's even a forum to discuss the game and give its creators feedback.

    So thanks for reading this, and for taking the time to give a fellow playgrounder a click!

    Just as a note, it should grammatically be "Who Beats Whom?"

    I think that happened at a point in "The Chase"...

    Oh wait, that wasn't it... Well, the idea sounds interesting. I'll have to check it out.

    Ahh, here I was thinking this was about The Doctor becoming a grinch.

    That is to say, Who fighting the Whos.
    My pronouns are they/them.

    Sometimes grammar has to suffer for the good of the many.

    Thanks for your interest so far. I see somebody from the forum has fanned us! Daily battles usually go up around noon, so don't be afraid to weigh in.
