- demaga 2y agoYes, thank you! I had a lot of fun playing around with Nim and other mathematical games after I watched [talk on surreal numbers by Tom Hall](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpXoluxBYw0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpXoluxBYw0). But the transfinite version went completely over my head. Also, I find it funny that reading about Nim is how I learned the term misère, even though I played lots of misère games before without realizing!
