I've never played with a dreidel, but I love the song!

*puts on the BNL Holiday album... since it has a dreidel song on it!*

AUGH but it also has a cover of that horrible Bandaid song! *goes off on rant about it's Rudyard Kipling-esque attitude (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_White_Man's_Burden) re: those poor Africans who don't know it's Christmas* Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that they were able to raise all that money to help out Ethiopia, but jeez.

*skips that song and partakes of many many cookies*

*explains*

It's like a spinning-top thing, but kind of square. I'm not sure of the details of the game, though.

And the all actions thing is from what I believe is this thread's parent, which is the Forum Riot over on Tomgeeks.

*jetpacks away!*

Actually Panda, we've had all kinds of similar crazy "action" threads like this long before Tomgeeks was even around ... ah, the Pirate thread. But we certainly didn't start the trend, I'm sure.

And I know what a Driedle IS... I've just never played with one Wink

*waits patiently for Asa to explain, and grabs another cookie in the meantime, accidentally spilling eggnog on PCP in the process*

I was actually explaining to Thebes, but you ninja'd me :p

Really? Tomgeeks was the first one I saw, so I just attributed it to there. But now we have a lead! >D

*hunts down the history*

No, my hand is still sore from writing the Go Postal ones (writing just makes my hand sore)!

I could explain, but I've discovered in recent years that I've been playing it incorrectly my entire life. So I wouldn't trust my explanation. It's a lot of fun though. :3
