There is a game called Last Man where people aim to be the last man to find out who won the superbowl. I've been inadvertently playing this game for a while but this year I will try to be more purposeful about it.

http://www.lastman.us/

Quote:The object of the game is to avoid, for as long as possible, learning either a) the winner or b) the final score of the Super Bowl. This data is called The Knowledge.

You are eliminated from the game when you Know.

Always play honestly.

Nobody ever wins. It’s a game you play against yourself, so it always ends in a loss, eventually.

Technically I'm not qualified to play since I'm not in America, but I'm connected enough to American audiences via this forum and Twitter that I'm declaring myself eligible.

Starting on Sunday night, I will do a Twitter blackout and also be careful of reading certain sites. I figure if I can make it until Tuesday then it's possible I may never find out.

I will update this thread if I do find out the winner. Others who don't care about football are free to join in the festivities.

So who's going to be the dick that posts the names of the winners in this very thread?

I'd play if it wouldn't be so predictable that my coworkers are going to be babbling about it all day on Monday. It's almost all they've been talking about for the past 2 weeks.

I like watching the occasional sports game now and then, but I love the look on blue pill coworkers' faces when they try to give me a hard time about generally not caring about college and professional sports and I reply with something like "it's just two teams of eleven men in shiny outfits trying to carry a piece of inflated leather across an arbitrary line."

Like I shot their puppy.

I'm doing taxes this weekend. This will be an easy win.

Welp, gonna bounce out of state on my motorcycle anyway. It'll give me a reprieve until work.

If we convince Tuthmosis to play this game as well we can turn the NFL thread into a race/religion troll tranny porn fetish thread and get away with it. The ultimate dream. Shhhh.....

Well, that answers my question.

What's a superbowl?

I'm definitely not eligible to play. Unless someone from this site read this message and went out of their way to tell me, I would probably go months without even hearing anyone mention football.

For example, I'm a little surprised to find out that the football season isn't over already.

I dont think anyone can win.

I havent known the results of any superbowl game ever- and Im sure at least 5 others are the same. Unless someone goes out of their way to tell us(similar to "Dont think about the game") this probably would last indefinitely.

I think I can win this. I don't remember who played, won, and what score last year. I work at home and I hate talking to blue pill people. i honestly didnt know the super bowl was this weekend until friday when someone asked me "who im rooting for". It helps im in LA too since we havent had a team here for over a decade so there's always a quiet shame about this time of year.

Key part of winning this is staying off social media for like 3 days and then avoid people in person for about a week. After that the probability you'll never learn goes up dramatically. If you make it to valentines, you win.

Post: #23

I'll give this a try. It shouldn't be too difficult considering American football is not popular at all here.

Post: #24
