Howdy.
Those of you with a programming background certainly remember "The Game of Life," wherein you play the role of the Grand Watchmaker, setting up some rules of death and reproduction and then letting your population bloom like algae or breed themselves into starvation based on their hard-wired rutting habits.
"The Game of Creation Science" is just like this, only you get to play a more interventionist Diety. While You ostensibly grant Your subjects free will, You will in fact decide who lives and dies, with the goal of making Your mindless creations go forth and multiply until there is no room for another entity anywhere on the playing field. At this point there can only be more starvation than births, and The Judgement, or Time of Scoring, begins.
[ For those without a CS degree, the basic premise is that a "birth" on the game board will lead to "births" on adjacent game squares if they aren't already occupied; if there's someone already "living" there, You've overpopulated an area and someone dies. ]
Pick one:
1. Sounds lame. Take me out of here.
2. I'll give it a try.
I am not a number ... I am a free man!
