Oh boy could we extend this list some.

Off the top of our heads (Helen is here):

denari snapping his fingers.
The word 'flange'.
Sending foreign language text messages to squiddity.
Anyone asking squiddity what the time is.
hythloday saying anything that doesn't immediately make sense.
The concept of being reminded about something by something else.
Something that has no connection to anything else.
Earworms.
Breasts.
Spankings.

And so on.

PS: You just lost The Game.

Does number 3 work on Squid as well? if it does, you just made me the happiest woman in the world :D

Yes, that's kind of the point. James spent some time crafting 'You just lost The Game' messages in various obscure languages and sending them to Squid, until now he probably loses without even translating them.

"Do You Hear the People Sing?", or 'Les Miserables' generally.

Fortunately for me, blackcurrants has linked Losing the Game with Breasts, rather thahn Breasts with Losing the Game, which makes it entirely more palatable. :)

Anyone pointing at Stuart.
Anyone randomly saying 'Oh bollocks' or 'Oh fuck'.
A certain kind of grin, notably on James, Stuart or me.
A seven minute silence.

Wankstain.

Got about halfway down the first page before I realised that actually, I don't want to read this! Interesting that someone loses it when they look at a clock tho

I got halfway through writing this post before I actually lost, which I thought was quite funny.

Of course, now I'm losing every time someone replies to it, which is about what I deserve I suppose :)

[denari.livejournal.com]

Wonder if you could lose every time you typed a post? Or any time an LJ reply ended up in your inbox?

[dennyd.livejournal.com]

I don't think so - it happens too often. That'd be like you losing The Game every time you looked at your daughter and felt overwhelming love for her.
