 Send to email | Choose Your Own Adventure: Pong [Pong] in BooksHumorPongText Adventures |  By Owen Good
el 31-May-2008 |  Back in November we pointed you to Pac-Txt, Pac-Man as a text adventure. Now we deliver you Pong rendered as a 180-page Choose Your Own Adventure book. It's like someone sat around thinking "Hey, you know that game Pong? What if we could make it even slower and more boring. But admit it, you're intrigued. And you can read the entire thing after the jump.
One of the best parts of the Choose Your Own Adventure series was hunting through the book for the page where you "win" the story and then backtracking the choices, so that you could read straight through without choosing and thus defeat the purpose of the book (because 10-year-olds are just that ungrateful). If anyone wants map out this one, please do post it in the comments. I'm wondering if match point is one of those slice returns or a tight angle shot right into the corner.
I'd be remiss if I didn't mention you could buy a hard-copy version to play when your power goes out. Or you could get a PSP, which is smaller, lighter and more, like, fun.

| The Ping Pong Door |  Every office should have a Ping Pong door. Although productivity would go down by at least 80% once this door is installed. No word on price yet, but this should be a fairly easy project to remake for your home or office.

| Alley Beer Pong: CollegeHumor Destroys Gawker |  IAC (IACI) boss Barry Diller (SA 100 #2), out West at the D6 conference, should be proud: His CollegeHumor has defeated Nick Denton's (SA 100 #7) Gawker Media at beer pong. Adding insult to injury, CollegeHumor also blogged the results first (as far as we can tell).
"I think the score was 10-2 when we ran out of beer," CollegeHumor editor-in-chief Ricky Van Veen (SA 100 #70) writes.
