Talk:Guts (game)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Isn't this the same thing as Flutter Frisbee? --Liface 03:53, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
Should Flutterguts become a subsection of this article? --Superflyguy 2:01, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
- The problem here is that no one even knows if the sports are the same thing. We need a disc sports expert to come in an help. --Liface 04:20, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
- Flutterguts and Guts frisbee are not the same game. Whether flutterguts should be on wikipedia and it's status as an independent article are open to debate. Until I either find adequate sources or conclude that it is unsourcable and propose it for deletion, however, I am asking where it should be located.

- Guts frisbee involves two teams standing 15 meters appart throwing a disc in any manner that it does not turn upside down. Flutterguts involves two teams standing adjacent and attempting to catch a flipping frisbee. It is impossible to throw a disc so that it flys 15 meters while flipping end over end and never turns upside down. Certainly they are extremely similar, to the extent that a brief section could summarize the differences,` but the descriptions are mutually exclusive. --Superflyguy 19:44, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
- Flutterguts doesn't even require teams, it can be played 1-on-1 and is still loads of fun, Guts requires teams, they are very different however certain flipping skills are usefull in both games. Dan37205 , 29 June 2006
- What do you mean where it should be located? Both articles exist right now. Take the merge templates off if they're not the same game. --Liface 17:40, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wham-O
Please note that FRISBEE is a registered mark of Wham-O, Inc. and change the title of this article to read "Guts" FRISBEE ®.
Thank you, Wham-O, Inc.
- This is discouraged on Wikipedia, see WP:MOS-TM. Perhaps a rename to Guts (disc game) is in order? --Liface 04:47, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Remove merge
Guts and flutterguts are nothing alike, this merger request should be deleted. -- --ToastTheif
- Do you have a source for either game? --Liface 05:42, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Broken discs
Not about the time frame (article suggests 1960s), but discs still do sometimes break when caught. I have this on authority of the members of Katon, Japan's national team. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.71.7.43 (talk) 12:50, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
