I find it hard to believe that this is not something made up one day, especially considering that the inventors are listed as "MP, KK, and JF". Seems WP:MADEUP to me, and a Google search comes up dry. SchuminWeb (Talk) 00:06, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Per nom. Can't find any sources per WP:RS.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Savonneux (talk • contribs) 03:09, 1 May 2010
Delete Not much to add except that I'm surprised this wasn't a CSD candidate. -Phoenixrod (talk) 04:34, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- No criterion to speedy it under. Besides, if this gets deleted via this process and they decide to recreate, we can delete it on sight, pointing to this discussion. SchuminWeb (Talk) 14:03, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - I understand that. I'm just surprised the CSD policy doesn't cover this article. -Phoenixrod (talk) 20:17, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. "Invented by MP, KK, and JF" pretty much admits WP:MADEUP. JIP | Talk 06:43, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Should be kept if more references are added. Limeisneom (talk) 08:41, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- That'll be "more" in the sense of "any at all"...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:53, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - No third party, reliable coverage and appears to be MADEUP. EuroPride (talk) 10:39, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - game made up by pissed uni students, clearly not notable in the slightest outside of a small circle of friends -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:53, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- your negative outlook on life throughout this "discussion" is not appreciated. You can hang out with us sometime if you want instead of having to settle for your "internet circle of friends" every weekend...... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mpasowis (talk • contribs) 13:45, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - Note: User:Mpasowis has only ever edited the article under discussion here, this AfD discussion itself, and the article War (card game). JIP | Talk 19:19, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Per WP:MADEUP. Joe Chill (talk) 17:58, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as made up. For those who came here after it was deleted, despite the interesting title, this is not about thermonuclear warfare or about a new video game, but rather someone's variation of the War (card game) that we all played when we were kids, with high card taking the low card, but if there's a tie, then someone says "War!" and you play one-or-two face down, the next face up, winner takes three or four of the opponent's cards. Plus, you drink alcohol, which generally isn't part of the game we all played when we were kids. Mandsford (talk) 14:48, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
