    It's about time this game came to our forums. Sometimes I enjoy just playing it with my friend in a notebook when there is a free lesson. But you forgot to mention the 'NO GUNS' rule. (Sorry to disappoint you, President Max.)
    And now, although the Triceratops was my favourite dinosaur as a little boy, the Brachiosaurus is bigger, if not the biggest. (And also herbivorous.)

    Fair move, but eventually all dinosaurs were wiped out!

    Indeed, but I didn't want it to happen too early.

    Add this, wait a few billion years and it will be smooth.

    Not if a dam comes along and drinks all of it back up again!

    Sorry to call the rules out, but can we go for stuff a little more generic? I don't recognize that picture at all to counter it :(

    You could have posted a picture to the dam busters or something, never mind :eek:

    You could've tried Googling "river Isen". It's from Lord of the Rings.

    I'd put up a picture of Saruman ripping up the forest (or something like that), but then we'd end up trapped in an endless loop.

    (Weird Al's expression when he sees grammar mistakes.)

    (By the way, I have a winning image for ANY situation, and I will use it when someone uploads a really crazy/silly/stupid image.)

    I think the whole point isn't to *win* and post obscure pictures to battle, how are you meant to beat weird al yankovics expression? it has to be a person or object, for example for that big crater I posted, someone could have posted a picture of a cement mixer, to where someone would post a shoe, and then someone would post something to beat the shoe and so on, posting peoples facial expressions just makes the game boring. sorry.

    Basically the picture was simply Weird Al. I just explained the expression so that everyone will understand why I posted it. Weird Al can be beaten.(?) And if you take it as his expression, you can post a funnier one.
    And of course I don't want to win the game, there is absolutely no fun in that. Even my ultimate picture can be beaten, but it just beats almost anything. (You will see why in time.)

    Nice response, Sarendor, but it doesn't display. I had to quote your post and copy the URL to see what it was.

    Noo, it's not meant to be "post a funnier picture" or expression, it's meant to kill or eliminate the picture above, without using pictures of guns or huge bombs or whatever.

    Example: Tree>Chainsaw>Metal>Miners>TNT>Bomb Squad

    It's really hard to play when you post people as it's hard to know what would beat them, especially if you've hardly heard of them, if it's more generic like the example above it's a lot more easier and fun to play.

    Really? It displays well enough on my computer.

    I don't think that it should work exactly like Rock-Paper-Scissors. You don't need to destroy the above picture, just to best it. As long as it is appropriate, I think that it is all right.
    Your own examples don't necessary kill/eliminate each other. Bomb squad is simply better than TNT.

    It displays fine for me now that I've viewed it, but for someone who hasn't viewed the picture, it won't display on the forums.

    ...That's what we're doing.

    I trumped his Weird Al with Coolio (ever hear of the dispute over Amish Paradise?), and he countered my Coolio with a barbershop.

    Replaced the picture with a smaller one from a site we all know well. Now, let us continue!

    Not buying a mac pro gives you spare cash to buy things that are actually value for money!
