I can’t believe people just go around making up games on the fly. Like who thought this was a good idea?! There’s no way you’ve possibly playtested the rules to ensure everything is balanced. Without corporate oversight and a solid profit motive there is no way some “friends” in a “car” could make a successful game. The premise is just absurd.

And then to think you could go around sharing your dumb “game” freely on the internet in forums and such?

Don’t even get me started…

Made up? Sure. Made up on the fly? Absolutely not, learn some basic goddamn planning skills and actually figure your game out properly. People just going with the first idea that slobbers out of their malfunctioning brains and giving it no further thought is how we end up with money for landing on Free Parking in Monopoly and the very same people complaining that Monopoly takes too long. You put in a house rule that makes the game take longer. "Oh this food is too spicy for me. I don't like it. Can you pass me the hot sauce so I can add some more please?"
