Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

There was a brief period last night in one of our Zombie Fluxx games where it was actually impossible for anyone to win. The winning conditions required someone to have something that another rule was preventing anyone from owning.

I think my head just exploded.

I didn't even like the concept of expansion sets for MtG.

Sean, I'm a big Fluxx fan and have turned my mom and cousins into big fans as well. Zombie Fluxx is also great.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I've only played 1000 Blank White Cards once and somehow the game ended in sex so I gotta say I'm a fan.

I cannot bear Fluxx. I don't want to relearn the rules to a game every 5 seconds. Horrid.

Apples to Apples, I love. You just have to play it with the right crowd. Or the wrong crowd, YMMV, as on one occasion I mocked the owner of the deck who had just pulled a blank card so he filled it out with my name on it and the winning choice was "Pond Scum" from someone who didn't even know me.
