The crane game.

O-cha · 04-15-2010, 10:02 PM

That's neck craning.

Usually played between "fine" automobile owners. The rules are simple. Whoever cranes their neck farthest to check out the other guys car loses.

So if I catch a ferrari 430 driver turning his head 30 degrees to check out my Mcoupe and I only look 15 degrees to check his car out, I get 15 points and he loses 15.

Pedestrians provide bonus points 1/4th of their cranage.

If either car has a woman on board and she cranes her neck at all to check out the other car, it's an automatic loss for the car she's in and that drivers points goes to zero and you get 2x the womans cranage in points.
don't

If it's a woman driver you she gets 1 your cranage points and you get 1/2 her cranage.

I see "nicer" cars snapping their heads 90 degrees to look at my M coupe, cars that I'm not even bothered to look at anymore, but I notice it and think its interesting.

How many points would I get for the time last November that my wife drove the Z4 down the road one fine Sunday afternoon and some guy craned his neck as she drove by - and then bucko rear ended the car in front of him?

Seriously!!

I'd lose cause I am usually craning to look at the chicks more than the cars! I did lose to a GT40 this morning though, don't get many cars out here over $100K that are seen on a daily basis.

We'll have to wait for O-Cha to rate that one, but I'd guess that's a whole lotta points!

haha! I totally scored some points last night. This one girl turned her head about 130-140 degrees and she was smoking hot too, so thats extra points. It was hillarious. Then this morning I went past a new e90 3 series and all 4 heads were at 90 degrees checking me out. and countless other ones not worth mentioning. It makes me smile.
