Non-notable "game" apparently unknown outside of a handful of people. Web hits appear to be Wikipedia mirrors and hits from www.surrealcoconut.com --- According to Alexa, that site is a personal website with a traffic ranking of 4,103,648. SWAdair | Talk 04:31, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Never heard it by this name, but the game's already listed under exquisite corpse unless there's some subtle distinction. 24.131.138.73 04:41, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)\
- If you'll read the descriptions, the games are barely even similar. In exquisite corpse (the collage version), a number of players sequentially make one collage; in parallel collage as many collages are made as there are players. --Daniel C. Boyer 19:00, 1 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Hmm... same main author for both articles. The web has certainly heard of "exquisite corpse" but I'm still not convinced about Parallel collage. SWAdair | Talk 04:57, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)

- How is it "vanity" to have an article on a game that was practiced first at the latest when I was in kindergarten and didn't even know there was such a thing as "surrealism"? Are you going to describe every article about a subject you don't like as "vanity"? --Daniel C. Boyer 19:00, 1 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Delete, Boyerism. GWO 18:28, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Calling this "Boyerism" (a generally meaningless term that as far as I've seen is almost always misleadingly or actually lyingly employed) is absolute crap. The first example of this I'm aware of is in the catalogue of the 1976 World Surrealist Exhibition, when I didn't even know what surrealism was. --Daniel C. Boyer 19:00, 1 Oct 2004 (UTC)
