This is the UNOFFICIAL Wiki of "LoseTheGame"
RULE 1: Everyone is playing the game. They always have been and always will be. Participation in a game requires neither consent nor awareness of its existence. Only when someone has told you about The Game does it become possible to lose, unless you independently create The Game. The creator of The Game was the first person to realise that he was playing, and was therefore the first person to lose. RULE 2: Loss is temporary. As soon as you forget about The Game, you start winning again. It is possible for people to simultaneously lose The Game. Causing others to lose The Game more than you is the only way to "win" The Game. Strategies usually involve leaving somekind of permanent reminder for others to see. e.g. answerphone messages, MSN pictures, forum posts, signs, graffiti etc.
One interpretation is that any thought involving The Game constitutes loss. Therefore, the objective of this version is to forget about The Game. Experienced players can think about, and even discuss, The Game without realising they have lost. Not announcing this loss violates Rule 3. Whether or not a thought is about The Game is hard to define. For example, does thinking about this website count as thinking about The Game?
RULE 3:
You must tell everyone you can that you have lost.
