Micro Foosball is identical to the full sized game, except everything fits into a tiny metal container with a glass top that's the size of a matchbox.
The ball is no bigger than a ball-bearing with matching tiny players being 3D printed in great detail.
To play the game requires inserting the Micro
game into the centre of a full sized table, where it gets connected to a set of gears that permit the two players to engage in the same set of movements required to knock the ball around.
A magnetic base dampens the trajectory of the ball to achieve even more realism.
Note - extra strong magnifying glasses are required to play Micro Foosball and protective headware is recommended.

The micro table isn't gimbled 'in' the foosball , is it?
Because a secondary or finer control system of the ball by other means might open possibilities for such a fast game. |
|
| |
Or the opposite of this idea, the table is in the centre of a gymnasium sized table where players also have to duck the giant foosball of their own plays. |
|
| |
That would be Macro Foosball and could be good as another idea where people have to run around to avoid being kicked by giant metal footballers operated remotely. At this point I imagine 8th fully approving. I "weaponised" many ideas just to make him happy. |

It doesn't leave a lot of room for the players
though. |
|
| |
And there's not a lot of the matchbox left either. |
|
| |
It sort of burst
when I forced it in. |

A ball-bearing 2 metres in diameter - but still no bigger than
that. |

[A ball-bearing 2 metres in diameter] Something to bring to the beach painted in beachball colours and simply leave there. |
|
| |
Macro Foosball would be like 'The Prisoner' beach
scenes |

No one's going to swing a foot at a 2 meter beach ball, they
might try pushing it but that's not going to result in
the
same comedic value is it |
|
| |
The recommendation in our copy of the big book of pranks
(3rd edition, 2nd printing)
is
for no
more than a 2 foot diameter for ball
bearing beachballs. |

I forgot to include that it's strongly magnetic with a warning notice that reads: "If you are close enough to read this sign, your phone is now wiped, as are all of your credit cards and if you have a heart pacemaker, that bright light you now see means you are dead." |

Won't forget the officer from infantry who tought us how to
charge. It was very impressive watching him jump down, shoot
to precision, spring back up to his feet, swiftly dodging this
way and that, and doing summersalts, changing magazines and
always with his gun on target. Ended kicking the target's base
which we had erroneously filled with rocks. |
|
| |
He then limped around for a week. |
|

I would have thought rushing towards the enemy as fast as
you can with no regard for personal safety while firing at
any
plausible target that presents itself
was a reasonably self explanatory act that needed no more
instruction than maybe a few
words of advice (like "don't run in a straight line, makes it
too easy for them
to shoot you, zig & zag a bit'"). |
|
| |
A bit of practice
maybe if you've
not done it much before, but actual
tuition? |
