!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Historically accurate royal family. Not even joking, it was all incest.

when heredity is power, consolidation of power is inbreeding

I’ve figured it out. Imagine that Mia farrow and woody Allen were cousins and Soon-Yi were the child of Farrow’s deceased previous husband (I assume there’s no divorce, but I’ve never played this game). Then Soon-Yi marries a sibling of Ronan Farrow, who also dies. Now, if she and Ronan farrow get married, she’s his cousin, half-sister, sister-in-law, niece, and wife.

Then if he’s the king and they like each other, she’s the queen, his vassal, and his friend.

Edit: I guess Mia farrow would also have to be dead for Soon-Yi and Allen to have gotten married.

Less a family tree, more a family web.

It's just two parallel lines for a long time if you remove all the people who aren't direct ancestors

I could be wrong but I think I figured it out:

  • Your mom and dad are siblings.
  • They have minimum 3 kids: 2 boys and a girl.
  • Your dad married his daughter and had another daughter with her.
  • That woman married your brother.
  • That woman also married you.

Reminds me of that star wars copypasta that ends with "... and she was a good friend"
