don’t believe the hype

Attempts have been made to describe The Game. Let us be absolutely clear:
- The Game does not innovate. It brings nothing new; only reconfigures that which already exists.
- The Game demands that ludens are highly innovative.
- To be a part of The Game you will need to use whatever resources are available to you: free or otherwise.
- The Game is not developed by one person in isolation.
- The Game is not simple.
- The Game will compel you.
- There will be workshops, but you will not be invited to most of them.
- The Game will be public.
- The Game will be private.
- The Game starts now. We do not know when it will end.
- The Game is not a treasure hunt.
- You will need to invest heavily to be a part of The Game.
