If it had happened in the US, it could easily have ended tragically. Same with some other countries.

As most of these people were probably young men I would have called it a darwinian solution. Definitely would have improved the gene pool.

A bit of a grey area, given that us nerds can tend toward the obsessive where games are concerned.

Which of us hasn't had multiple all-nighters, trying to just get past that next thingummy?

... And then the one after that has to be done, too... And there's no point sleeping now, so might as well do the one after that, as well...

I have to admit that I have been playing the same game for a number of years and I am definitely in the grey area (also well past breeding age).

I don't see the bonus upside at all. Groupthink is seldom beneficial, and in this case part of what it translates into is creating trillions of currency units that will be given or lent out in a way that, as usual, skews towards favored interests.

You mean the ones who don't know how to spell basic words, like "than"?

Or, indeed, how to capitalise the first words of sentences?
