Get the Wargerz mug.Wargames (or war games) are a technique used to simulate humanitarian decision problems.
These simulations can focus on any task of strategical importance; such as forecasting, logistics, pre-empting, stress-testing, or resource allocation — and they can cover virtually any crises; such as wars, pandemics, climate change, or election fraud
The sector gets most of its funding from governmental entities — mainly the military — and uses video- and tabletop games to simulate the events. Hence the name.
Wargames are an economic option to test plans in advance for serious crises. They are intended to aid decision-making by simulating the consequences of one's actions.
However, it is important to understand that wargames can easily yield misleading results; the games' effectiveness is heavily dependent on the quality of the game design and the behaviour of the players.

Military General: I just ran wargames to simulate the impact of a nuclear bomb being dropped on one of our biggest cities. And as an added bonus, producing this board game for the simulation was much cheaper than actually dropping a nuke on Boston! Wheeeeeeee ^w^
The Red Cross: I just played wargames to plan helicopter routes dropping off critical aid to remote villages. And running this little video game was way less wasteful than trial and error! yayyyy :D

Get the warishi mug.A term used in Young Thug’s new hit song “Money On Money” Featuring Future. Although the original term when searched up only refers to it being another word for “Joker” we doubt that Young Thug is referring to himself as one, unless Thug’s upcoming album “UY SCUTI” has a certain theme towards his persona lately resonating with the that of “The Joker” from DC Comics hence Thugger’s utterance of it as; “The Wagster!”.
