Don't forget vehicles, diseases, sudden deceleration, falls, drops and darwin award winning behaviour. It's important that people be aware of the risks they face, and seeking to silence that conversation is not helpful. If anythin

You are correct, from my understanding, in that a variety of factors from population density, to agriculture and animal domestication led to a greater spread of diseases. Even in analysis of native american populations before European conta

I don't mean to be flippant, but so what, if 1024, 2048, etc... were inspired on Threes? None of those games are exact copies, and even the Three's designers admit these others are "inferior" versions. Are they arguing t

To expand on what neotek said, none of this makes Three's a better game. All they are advocating is that it's a harder game that's so far been impossible to beat, and that they've tailored it to fit their tastes as game
