Calvinball

Okay I understand the premise of Calvinball is that there are no rules. I've played it and it's really fucking fun so I feel we should get a group of kids sometime and play. The only "guideline" is that all players have to wear the mask. If anyone questions the mask the correct response is "sorry no ones allowed to question the masks" Calvin. This has now been understood and accepted so I present to you. Kalvinball. This game relies on creativity and quick wittedness rather than actual athletic prowess. Despite Calvinball's insistence on no rules Kalvinball does maintain a few. The idea of the game is that teams are formed. Upon the creation of the two teams a rule is made by both teams. The first round is played. Generally the basic game is something like "get the ball in the hoop". The first two rules may be "only using your left hand" and "after running around the ring twice". After the first round another rule is created (generally by the losing team). This rule can be used to hinder the opponent, but nothing to serious should be created, such as "must stand in corner during play" as it quickly turns into teams moving really slowly along the field and then it stops being fun. Once too many rules are created and it begins to lose its magic the slate is wiped clean and the game starts again.

So anybody up for a game?


*edit*
These guys arent as cool as us naaaaaaturally but I still stand by doing this.
