I assume these are both the same games. Please check this and put them perhaps together. Greetings --Nfu-peng 17:48, 23 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative name: Elastics

[edit]

This article seems to describe what we, in New Zealand, called Elastics.

Merge?

[edit]

This article and Jumpsies seem to be about the same thing. By the way, the game is also played in Romania, and is called "elastic" (hurray for original research :-p) --Urzică (talk) 20:29, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Chinese garter

[edit]

The name I've heard for this is "Chinese garter". Never heard of "Chinese jump rope". Gronky (talk) 00:13, 30 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's called "Chinese Jump Rope" in California where I grew up, so I'm sure it is in other places as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.13.5.124 (talk) 05:46, 17 April 2015

History, origin?

[edit]

Came here to learn where this game originated, and was disappointed. Encyclopedic knowledge includes origin stories. Xaxafrad (talk) 21:48, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well, never mind my previous comment above. I finally came back and read the lead more thoroughly. I must've skipped over the history paragraph because it's indented and looks like a block of quoted text. Xaxafrad (talk) 00:42, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
