<p>2001:14BB:91:AD0:CA0E:3BE0:9698:16F1: </p> <hr /> <div>A common problem in games with more than two problems: You have a player who '''cannot''' win, but who '''can''' choose which of the other players '''will''' win. If he can't be a King, he can at least be the man who makes the King.<br /> <br /> Some games compensate by either making everybody play [[Patience|Solitaire]] or hiding who's winning. [[Diplomacy|Some games don't, in order maximize backstabbing]].<br /> <br /> Examples include:<br /> <br /> * [[Monopoly]] players offering their property for a song in a trade.<br /> * Strategic games (like [[Risk]] or [[Civilization]] if you want to go /v/) players going kamakazi on one player to tie them up in order to aid another.<br /> * [[Diplomacy]], just Diplomacy.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Gamer Slang]]</div>
