| The Billions’ logo was an old ‘Wobbly’ cartoon symbolizing the strength of workers’ unity : a composite image of a fish made up of a school of little fish eating a big fish. The Wobbly fish was a sign of recognition among fans of “BvB” who became known as “Fishies.” In real life, most Fishies rooted for the Billions against the Billionaires, but in the Game nearly everyone enjoyed taking a turn as a ruthless Scrooge McDuck -- grabbing territories, monopolizing industries, crushing rebellions. | The Billions’ logo was an old ‘Wobbly’ cartoon symbolizing the strength of workers’ unity : a composite image of a fish made up of a school of little fish eating a big fish.

| Little by little, players of “Billions vs. Billionnaires” began taking more of an interest in real-life struggles, understanding them through the sympathies and analytical tools they picked up playing the Game. The symbol of the little fish eating the big fish began showing up as graffiti in bathrooms, schoolyards, walls, and on bumper stickers. Bold taggers took pride in spray painting Wobbly fish on walls late at night even under the most repressive torture regimes. And when dawn came up, the dayglow fish showed forth like the Christian symbol of old -- a threat to the rich, a hope for the poor, a sign of resistance among the young and wired. | Little by little, players of “Billions vs. Billionnaires” began taking more of an interest in real-life struggles, understanding them through the sympathies and analytical tools they picked up playing the Game.
