Truly the most potted wink of all



As an aside, for anyone who hasn't, I strongly recommend reading the official tiddlywinks rule list for an enjoyably :psypop: reaction at how exhaustively things can be structured for a baby game I played when I was four

oh please how elaborate could the rul...


Wow ok. That's a lot to take in.

It also includes some technical jargon

wikipedia posted:

Cracker (UK): a simultaneous knock-off and squop, i.e. a shot which knocks one wink off the top of another while simultaneously squopping it

Crud (UK): a forceful shot whose purpose is to destroy a pile completely

Good shot: named after John Good. The shot consists of playing a flat wink (one not involved in a pile) through a nearby pile with the intent of destroying the pile

Gromp: an attempt to jump a pile onto another wink (usually with the squidger held in a conventional rather than a Bristol fashion)

John Lennon memorial shot: a simultaneous boondock and squop
