Never tell us
it's just a game.

The 2nd line is too long. Maximum 16 characters including punctuation and spaces. We could easily substitute Never for Don't and be fine.

According to this transcript it was "Don't" - "So don't tell me it's just a game."

If I had voting rights (which I don't) I'd vote for dropping the "we are the zone" line and keeping the apostrophe:

Sometimes less is more. And if it's surrounded by bricks crammed full with messages, a brick with a little more open space might stand out nicely.

Well if it was "don't" let's go with "don't." I just thought "never" sounded more forceful.

Agreed. If he actually said "don't" that's what we should use.

I do like the cleaner look of PancakeMan's version.
