about

Gaming can sometimes generate Bad Losers... and Bad Winners. Neither is the right approach.

To be clear, we are not promoting the viewpoint of the singer here. :) Saying "Relax. It's just a game" when you're winning can be problematic. Of course, flipping the table and rage quitting is problematic too.

This is probably why we prefer co-op games. :)

lyrics

Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?
Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?

So we're different colors on different sides of the board,
And you're looking on with envy at the size of my hoard
It's obvious I'm winning though you've done nothing wrong.
And you’re staring icy daggers as I'm singing this song

I can't understand,
Why you throw a fit
If it's all so bad
Why do you just quit.

Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?
Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?

Now you're throwing down your pieces and you're shouting at me,
Just because I'm not playing into your strategy
Sometimes the dice are friendly but that's not a cheat
Next time I might be the one not getting the wheat

I can't understand,
It's all just fun
Please calm yourself
And put down the gun

Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?
Meeples aren't people so why should it be,
You and I should get along so awfully?

I can't understand,
What makes a game
Take a sour turn
Go down in flames
