Talk:War (card game)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm assuming that "jokers beat all other cards" doesn't apply if both jokers are used (so in that case, they're just the next up from an ace, yes?). -Sean Curtin 05:59, Dec 11, 2004 (UTC)

Personally I usually take the jokers out. -ggb667

This page is very hard to find on the search "war cardgame" didn't work, and should. I don't know how to fix that (yet). Also "war" didn't go to a disambugiation page. -ggb667

I have put in a link for war cardgame. If there are other search ways you think need to be addressed then the way to do it is to create a page with the title you feel people will use to search for and then put in "#REDIRECTWar (card game)"-look at this in the edit page to see the correct control characters. On the second point it is normal wiki policy that if a word has a very common meaning and other less common meanings then typing in the word will go to the article with the common meaning, but there will be a link to the disambigution page at the top. I think it is reasonable to assume that war as in conflicts between countries is the most common reason to search for this term so the way it's set up is legitimate. Finally to get the computer to automatically sign your name at the end put in four "~" in a row and it will put your name and comment time at the end of your talk point.

The sentence:

"Whoever has no card to play when they are required to play one is the winner."

is wrong, is it not? According to Hoyle, the game is won by the player who has all the cards, and this is how I remember it from years ago. - LagunaDave

The article uses the words "In one blood-thirsty variation," Really now? That seems a bit of a leap in vocabulary, especially since no violence or ruthlessness is described in the rule. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deltadromeus (talk • contribs) 06:59, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
