Merger proposal

[edit]

Notwithstanding the previous merge proposal, I propose that Steal the Flingsock be merged with Steal the Bacon as they appear to refer to the same thing, or minor variants thereof which would be better consolidated into a single article. --Walnuts go kapow (talk) 10:46, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

happy to have it merged

[edit]

Happy to have "...flingsock" and "...handkerchief" merged into "steal the bacon". Steal the Bacon ought to be the canonical title, as "Steal the flingsock/handkerchief" doesn't enjoy the depth of citations that "steal the bacon" does. -- Vonfraginoff (talk) 19:09, 12 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Renewing the proposal by User:Interlaker above. Steal the bacon shares the same principles as capture the flag and it could easily be merged into the "Variants" section like stealing sticks. What say ye? —  AjaxSmack  19:50, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Steal the bacon is different in that it involves calling individuals in pairs, whereas capture the flag is more of a team-based as multiple players are active at once. 96.241.166.13 (talk) 00:37, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
