[GB] Just goofing around

Postby Mike » Tue Mar 19, 2019 3:15 pm



The original image is from 400 BCE, found in what is now a suburb of Athens. The game was probably Episkyros (common ball), played like a more violent form of rugby, with 12-14 players per team.

Episkyros would be a cool name for Godball. Not a good name... but cool. No one would ever remember Episkyros. Do you know how many times I've had to play Santorini to remember that it's called Santorini? A lot! And I love that game.

First: This is awesome.

Second: Clearly Episkyros was our inspiration when we started this game. Clearly.

Also, penis.
Heracles. Fists. Pantheon.

Clue in ancient Greece.

Yes, but at least the placement of the letters obscures the other penis.

Can we Photoshop cartoon togas onto both of those folks? Or soccer shorts and shin guards?
