2010 HCO Game
Hard Core Opposites Game isn't bound by any prescribed fixed format. Everybody enjoys the total freedom of getting their oars in with lively give & take and creative input. All we're chatting about are ideas, concepts, issues, persons, places and things that are by definition essentially opposed to each other and, therefore, at odds or incompatible. Here are a few to get the ball rolling: oil and water; darkness and light; shallowness and depth. Simple individual/cumulative game point scoring is fifteen (15) points awarded to the person with the last bona fide contribution to each page (minus the number of off topic posts). Enjoy!

true, but both are liquids. Shallowness and depth are merely degrees of the same parameter,
e.g., one inch, one mile.
Rather than HCO, how ablout SOG (shades of gray)?

Your term [b]"Hard Core" suggests exact opposites, not just differences in kind or degree.
Are you aware of what you say?[/b]
