Oh my god. Something awful has just happened, help.

I've just lost The Game

Bugger

Oh off you fuck it's been months!!!

I’m not disappointed someone isn’t in a heartbreaking situation.

I’m disgusted that the op posted such a click bait title for something that really isn’t awful oh god at all.

It’s infantile and belittles those who do post here for support with serious issues when they are emotional and something awful actually has happened.

People are upset at having nothing to be upset about

The game is in the same league as chain letters.

Completely forgot about this! Probably 3 years or so; I am equally delighted/annoyed/nonplussed - if that's actually possible! 😁 But definitely not bothered by the nefarious means the OP used to lure back in!

People are being deliberately obtuse. Of course no one is "wishing" something bad happened but using such titles when it's not needed can affect those who truly need to use it. It has happened before when people rarely clicked on dramatic titles because they thought it could be clickbait for something pointless and posters resorted to adding "Not clickbait" to their titles if it wasn't.

I have no idea what any of you are talking about

Has something awful happened to you and your aren't getting the attention you feel you deserve? Is that what this is about?

We've all had awful things happen to us in life. Some of us still want some light hearted nonsense in it anyway.

The only person attempting to belittle others on this thread is you.

That's the point of The Game - people who have no idea what anyone is talking about acting like they do You fit right in.

Oops that was to overbyyer

The title is inappropriate.

Where's the fun on Mumsnet @WheresTheFunOnMN?

I know...I'm not having any. @JaneJeffer I want to play a game.

I think you've missed they point of the game. It's not mornington crescent..

Everybody Arrghh you just reminded me of that game. Both are cut from the same cloth. Someone should start a thread, been a while.

Someone very kindly and in great depth messaged me the rules of Mornington Crescent, I'm still none the wiser

I can't believe people are so cross there's nothing to be upset about!

You are not supposed to understand Mornington Crescent. That's kind of the point.

Although real fans would hate to see me say that out loud.

@EverybodyIsInteresting

You're just not keeping up to date with the rule amendments

squirry I think everyone was invoking the very unusual Denmark Hill double loop rule when she said that. That’s what I’d argue anyway if I were called up in front of the MCMC (misconduct committee).

[quote HummingBeeBox]@LatteLoverLovesLattes so anything bad happening cancels out anything fun being able to happen anywhere else? Righto [/quote]
Not at all

But faking something bad happening to get attention is pathetic, not fun. If this is the best you can come up with to have fun, I pity you

Grrrr it's over 12 months since I played the Game... Back to square one I guess😂

I was winning for about 6 years and have lost twice in the space of a couple of weeks! Grr

Bastard

FFS, haven't lost the game for ages, thanks!

Are you ok? You're coming across really nastily? This is only a thread on a chat forum. I often think of MN as a pub. Would you go around a pub and listen to all the conversations at different tables and declare them boring and not worthy of your input or would you just quietly move on?
