Do you play the game, if you do you've just lost. What am I talking about, I'll tell you. Wikipedia describes "the game" as such: "The Game is an ongoing mind game, the objective of which is to avoid thinking about The Game itself. Thinking about The Game constitutes loss, which, according to the rules of The Game, must then be announced. The Game is continuous—once a player stops thinking about The Game, they have no longer lost." The rules of the game are as follows:
1. Everyone in the world is playing The Game. (Sometimes narrowed to: "Everybody in the world who knows about The Game is playing The Game.", or alternatively, "You are always playing The Game.")
2. Whenever you think about The Game, you lose.
3. Losses must be announced.
