Some of the game's elements such as the disproportionate amount of points were due to my state of mind at the time, as I felt these elements would be frustrating to men. The sport resembles most of Basketball, which is probably the sport I enjoy watching most. I had a lot of fun making up the rules and I've still got the notebook I did it in, complete with diagrams."
