A metaphor in video game theory that refers to a game of chess with all the rules of regular chess until a player wins. Once a player wins, a die is rolled, and the loser becomes a winner if it reads "1".
Refers to a video game where random factors can triumph over skill, often in favor of player engagement or as a side affect of emergent or dynamic gameplay.

The worst kind of game (or sport) is the one that seems designed to be taken seriously. Games (and sports) are the opposite of anything seeious, and there are already enough people in the world always wearing a silly looking game face, a kind of poker face that makes them look and sound more serious than they actually are.
Chess, checkers, they're both games. Warning shots, warning barks, anything with the word warning in front of it seems meant to be taken seriously, and yet that still doesn't mean they came from a serious person, any more than mandates, restrictions, or laws.
