1 Blank White Card by Luai Lashire

July 12th, 2008 2:11 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Play a game of 1000 Blank White Cards. Perhaps consider Fluxx for inspiration.

Take a picture or describe the best card in your game, decided by a vote, election, deathmatch, or what have you.

Since the instructions for this task say "the best card", I'm only putting one in the write up, but you can see the rest of the proof for more cards.

I played the game with my mom, dad, and little brother (age 10). The resulting game was pretty hilarious and moose-filled.
The best card of the game was not notable for the card itself, but for the way it was played. This is the card:

My little brother played this card at my father. At that point my father had been turned into a moose because of a card he played on the first round of the game, and later he had eaten a dragon my little brother had acquired. My little brother retaliated by playing the flower card, which he claimed the moose was allergic to, and therefore the moose sneezed up his dragon. Everyone was quite impressed by this creative use of a card with no writing on it.

My vote is for your mother and her learning curve. It reminds me of the time that my little brothers and I taught our family to play Mafia. We had a big game involving my brothers, myself, our parents, our grandfather and step-grandmother, and several of my little brother's friends. The game went well and nearly everyone quickly picked up on how the game worked, except for the fact that my mother was completely unable to vote for the death of any of her children, even when they were OBVIOUSLY MAFIA and VERY SUSPICIOUS.

One of the most fun things about silly/group/parlor games such as 1KBWC, Mafia, etc is taking them into new social environments and seeing what happens.

:) Thanks for the vote!
Yes, I agree with you about the games- sometimes it's like a completely different game.
I think the most fun I had playing a board game in a strange situation was when we played a spy game with my grandmother. My grandmother was one of the first women in the CIA, back in the cold war. Everyone there knew this, and were all kind of in awe of her. So my little old grandmother became a terrifying enemy.
