Mecamum
Mecamum was given birth to by a mathematics game, MARCO Educational Game as a result of a tied contest in the game play. MARCO Educational Game is one of the five games in MECAMA Educational Games designed by a Nigerian. Other games in MECAMA include E’MARCO, COGA, ANTOR and MARCO PLUS.

The evolvement of mecamum together with its contents could be seen as an additional topic to mathematics, computer science and economics topics at both junior and senior secondary school levels and could also be used as a General Studies (GNS/GST/GSE) course at tertiary levels. Mecamum is divided into five different chapters/units ranging from the brief introduction of the topic through mecantile to derivation of important formulas. Chapter One deals with the brief notes and introduction about mecamum and its various applications; Chapter Two deals with conversions between the two game plays of MARCO Game; Chapter Three deals with mecamum pairing and its types; Chapter Four deals with mecantile where the real winner of a tied game is decided; and finally, Chapter Five discusses the derivation of important formulas used in deciding the real winner and the win difference.

Mecamum is a theoretically standalone topic with many applications which can be practically supported and enhanced by playing the real MARCO Educational Game. Baylinks (talk) 21:18, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
