Description:

A GREAT BIG GAME OF CALVINBALL! a game of Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucketwits and creativity rather than stamina or athletic skill, a prominent self-modifying game, so we'll be making up the guidelines as we go along (in the spirit of Calvin & Hobbes comic strip). Feel free to suggest teams, objectives, trophy, or guideline ideas, but please, no rules. A lack of organization is key on this one so be ready for anything. Uniforms heartily encouraged! Food should be brought by any player wanting to enjoy such a thing. A hot grill and drinks are among the hopeful attendees. So Please, come one, come all. Bring your friends, imaginary or otherwise, and if anyone has any balls, bring those too.
In general I thought we would make this game about getting non SF0 players involved and somehow keeping the game going after our departing. We will have to decide how sports literal we should go, is there a goal line? do we use a ball or frisbee? or should we use plastic swords and hulahoops? Tough questions, I know. I'll send out details to responding attendees as they develop.

The first rule is that you must or must not bring anything or nothing that may or may not be relevant or irrelevant to Calvinball or otherwise. And vice versa.

my boss says i need to work later

and my dr says that a braced arm and a twisted foot arent good for calvin ball either(which is a bonus 3 flings)

so i will not be in the actual physical space you are playing, but i will play in the office(telecommution of CB +2 dexterity and the option to take 3 articles(total) one at a time(so i only end up with three things) from 2 different sources.

phone it in?

if i really really really cant make it(+ 3 points to everyone else) then i was thinking i could text or call my actions in to someone. i went over the list of people coming and it turns out i know conor(+15 to growth) but i dont know his number either.

someone give me their cell phone number?(i am going to use one of my flings here to power beg)
