Who dares wins

'Do I dare disturb the universe?' asked
Alfred J Prufrock. The fact is, we
are all apes born equal. Think back
to school. The one who invents
the game dictates the rules.
Once the rules are in place it's
hard to change them. But essentially
they were just a whim on a day.
Maybe they are subject to evolution too;
do the best rules survive the longest?
The most popular games win out?
Take the terrible Victorian games of
unlikely chance: Ludo, Snakes & Ladders,
and put them in the bin.
