Offside determination requirements
- time and causality, we need a point in time to check the offside rule - most likely
- a goal - the king could be seen as kind of a goal
- at least a 1d coord system to determine if a player is offside - check
- a penalty zone - debatable
- players in at least two teams - multiple
- a ball, that is shot to a player behind the last line of enemy players - No.
No ball, no offside. Chess with a ball could be interesting, though. :)
Ask the president to change the call.
Gonna need someone to explain this one to me
If only there was a link to explainxkcd in the body of the post!
Edit: LOL, it’s empty for now. The joke is USian discovers football and its rules.
It’s a running gag that the offside rule has to be explained very often.
