I also thought that technically speaking, it isn't much of an invention. The same result could be accomplished simply by playing any game and vowing to make it life or death. Like, it is only the thought that what are games missing these days; ah, I know, more of a russian roulette feel. I've been wondering for a while when gameshows like survivor and big brother were going to morph into mask off roman arenas. The author really undersells the horror here. All that is missing for this to be used are some obligatory liability waivers and a large cash prize. Congratulations, they "invented" Logan's run.
