I quote this just because it's SO TRUE. Anything free at a convention will be gone within moments of appearing, we're all just that spazzy/greedy/hungry. xD

I second kylite's opinion on this one, although we can't do anything about it.  I will say this though:  if our nurse MamaKat gets called in to save any of you because you choke or get sick, afterwards I reserve the right to yell at you.  A lot.  I don't want to yell at you, so please be smart if you play.

Unlike Jaz, I don't need a stick.  :-P  I've been told I give some pretty scary dirty looks.  Also, I have a scarier weapon.  It's called Brownie.  So be safe peeps, k?

[superjaz]

Oh noes! D8 Not a stick! >.<

yup and its WOODEN!!!!

not so much a stick but my cooking mama wooden spoon

and its DULL!!!

[PaperShredderchan]

OH NOES!! DDD8

I think if this does happen, all participants need to sign a release and a waiver, as well as parents, that basically states what the game is, the risks that are involved and that if something does happen, Kumoricon and its staff are in no way liable.

And also, IMO this game is a very bad idea just because of how dangerous it is.

[PaperShredderchan]

Now that I think about it, wikipedia says there have only been two recorded deaths, and I know it's not really about probability, but technically, you're more likely to be struck by lightning than die playing chubby bunny.

[Romo]

I think you should just pick a time, place, and whether or not you're doing it so that details can be formed.~

LOOOOOL 

I can't believe how much Hype this game is getting! Either way, watching is starting to sound more and more fun.   

Cause ya know... I don't wanna
A. Get yelled at
B. Get poked with a stick
C. Get dirty/scary looks
D. Get hit with a dull wooden spoon
and then possibly Die from all of the above  XD

[Romo]

Ahmen, to that. xD

Well, if thats the case, I think all con mods can agree with this and that is if you do this, do it off of con property.

Now that I think about it, wikipedia says there have only been two recorded deaths, and I know it's not really about probability, but technically, you're more likely to be struck by lightning than die playing chubby bunny.

Also, I would have taken this seriously, but you sourced wikipedia, so sadly, I cannot take it seriously. 

[PaperShredderchan]

I'm not trying to start an argumant or anything, but really, if you think about it, what are the odds?

[Slash5150]

But really, if you think about it, what are the odds?

Honestly,

One should never gamble when there is potentially a human life at stake.

People have died from this game before, it will happen again, after all, someone has been struck by lightning before, and it has happened again.

[PaperShredderchan]

Well that's kinda like saying people shouldn't drive because they could be killed in an accident

[Slash5150]

Well that's kinda like saying people shouldn't drive because they could be killed in an accident

Then by all means, go ahead and play this game because you could surely choke on a marshmallow and die.[/sarcasm]

Like i said before, if ya'll wanna do this, go ahead, but all I can say is that if you do it, take it off the Hilton property because I don't think Kumoricon, its staff, its attendees, or the Hilton and their staff, want to be responsible if someone dies or is hospitalized because of this.

[superjaz]

so does this mean i dont get to poke some one with a stick

 

i am a sad panda

I'm done.

All I wanted to do was play a game with a few people and maybe make a funny video out of it, but if you're so worried about it that you're going to tell us to leave the con grounds and go somewhere else, with all due respect, I personally think that's ridiculous.

I really don't like to argue with people, and I'd rather not have any enemies here, so I'd like to just forget about this if that's possible :3

There is a reason I am suggesting you take it off of con grounds.

The game is fun but has been documented to cause deaths.  When you are on the con grounds at the Hilton, Kumoricon as well as its staff are ultimately responsible for the well being of the attendees.  Parents, from what I've experienced, are quick to blame.  If something happened to their child at the convention, it would quickly turn into "why weren't you supervising" or "how could you have let this happen" or anything of that nature.  If you talked to the K-con admins about getting a waiver and everything like that, then they could try to work something out. 

You have to remember, these things seem like all fun and games on the outside, but on the inside, as with anything, there are A LOT of things that go on behind the scenes.

[PaperShredderchan]

I don't really think it's worth it.
There're plenty of other things to do at the con :U

[Slash5150]

Your best bet if you want this to happen is to talk to the K-con admins, talk to them about waivers and releases that releases them, and the hilton etc. of liability because the game is risky because stuff has been documented.

[PaperShredderchan]

Well, like I just said, I don't think it's worth it. It just sounds like too much work for a game that will only last 15 minutes at the very most. I think it would be better to just not do it.

[superjaz]

yo sad panda here
 

i just like pokin stuff

[PaperShredderchan]

I'm sure there will be plenty of other things to poke ^^

[KogaRyu]

Awww, sooo there won't be some fight club esque, secret underground Chubby Bunny tournament?

I am dissapoint.
