Color War is in fact very well know and important within the camp setting. Ask anyone who has been to a Jewish camp in the Northeast.Frummygirl (talk) 05:16, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Well-known within the universe of Jewish camps, yes, but I haven't seen it make any news articles. I would imagine it's on the West coast, too, and I can vouch for it being in the central U.S. That doesn't make it notable, though. Perhaps you would consider participating in the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Color War? Tuvok[T@lk/Improve me] 09:28, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
What exactly makes it a "meta" game? Too often recently I see "meta" slapped onto the front of everything, buzzwords, or in this case, buzz prefixes that are the flavor of the month often get too liberally used when they are "in" without thought about whether they really apply or are just being used to make the writer sound smart. I would like to see some explanation of why this is a "meta" game, as well as some citation that it is this. 198.0.82.2 (talk) 19:38, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Preliminary response: a "game of games" - more accurately, a competition composed of competitions, but the phrase is catchy rather than semantically precise. -- Deborahjay (talk) 11:07, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I'm thinking that calling this a "meta" game is off the mark. "Meta" means something that is self-referential. Metadata is data that describes a set of data - ie that data's origin, etc. A metajoke is a joke that references the conventions of common jokes (eg. "An Englishman, an Irishman and a Scotsman walk into a bar. The bartender turns to them, takes one look, and says, "What is this - some kind of joke?""). Color war does not seem to be a game about games, it is merely a competition composed of several events. Someone was trying to sound smart with the "meta game" comment.
