Listening
[|Drawing Room: Generational games] - Does the decade you grow up in help shape your attitude to games and play?

Translating Game Rules:
1. If the game is rigged so you can't win, find another game or invent your own. 2. If you're not winning because you don't know the rules, learn the rules. 3. If you know the rules but aren't willing to follow them, there's either something wrong with the game or you need to change something in yourself. 4. Don't play the game in a half-baked way. Either get all the way in or all the way out. 5. It shouldn't be necessary for others to lose in order for you to win. If others have to lose, re-evaluate the game's goals. - Garry Hamilton, quoted in [|Paranoia]

Reglas del juego: 1. Si el juego está amañado por lo que no se puede ganar, encontrar otro juego o inventar tu propio. 2. Si tu no estás ganando, porque no sabes las reglas, aprender las reglas. 3. Si conoces las reglas, pero no están dispuestos a seguirlas, no sea algo malo en el juego o si necesita cambiar algo en ti mismo. 4. No juegue el juego de una forma a medio cocinar. O llegar hasta el fondo o todo el camino. 5. No debería ser necesario para que otros pierden con el fin para que tu gane. Si otros tienen que perder, volver a evaluar los objetivos del juego. - Garry Hamilton, citado en Paranoia

We don´t stop playing because we grow old: we grow old because we stop playing. - Shaw
