Calvinball* - Corn - 2010-01-05

But since this is not Calvin and Hobbes, I shalt call this game:

ClawofBetaBall

The Unofficial Official Rules of ClawofBetaBall

Permanent Rule: You may not play the ClawofBetaBalll the same way twice.

Primary Rule: The following rules are subject to be changed, amended, or deleted by any player(s) involved. These rules are not required, nor necessary to play ClawofBetaBall.

1.0. The following words in these rules are mostly freely interchangeable, the Primary Rule applies:

§ Can

§ May

§ Must

§ Shall

§ Should

§ Will

§ Would


1.1. All players must wear a ClawofBetaMaskll (See ClawofBetaballl Equipment - 2.1).

A ClawofBeta mask is depicted by a picture of corn in your post.

[Image: corn-42.jpg]

No one may question the masks (Figure 2.1).

1.2 Any player may declare a new rule at any point in the game (Figure 1.2). The player may do this audibly or silently depending on what zone (Refer to Rule 1.5) the player is in.

1.3. A player may use the ClawofBetaball (See Calvinball Equipment - 2.2) in any way the player see fits, whether it be to incur injury upon other players or to gain benefits for himself.

1.4. Any penalty legislation may be in the form of pain, embarassment, or any degradation the rulee wishes to execute upon the other player.

1.5 The ClawofBetaball Field (See ClawofBetaball Equipment - 2.3) should consist of areas, or zones, which are governed by a set of rules declared by players. Zones may be appear and disappear as often and wherever the player decides. For example, a corollary zone would enable a player to make a corollary (sub-rule) to any rule already made. Or a pernicious poem place would require the intruder to do what the name implies. Or an opposite zone would enable a player to declare reverse playibility on the others. (Remember, the player would declare this zone oppositely by not declaring it.) (Figure 1.5a and 1.5b)

1.6 Flags (ClawofBetaballl Equipment 2.3) shall be named by players whom shall also assign the power and rules which shall govern that flag (Figure 1.6).

1.7 Songs are an integral part of ClawofBetaballl and verses must be sung spontaneously through the game when randomly assigned events occur.

1.8 Score may be kept or disregarded. In the event that score is kept, it shall have no bearing on the game nor shall it have any logical consistency to it. (Legal scores include 'Q to 12', 'BW-109 to YU-34, and 'Nosebleed to Pelvic Fracture'.)


Calvinball Equipment


2.1. Mask - All participants are required to wear a mask - Figure 1.1


2.2. ClawofBetaball - A ClawofBetaball may be a soccerball, volleyball, or any other reasonable ball. Bowling balls are accepted. - Figure 2.1a and Figure 2.1b

2.3 Calvinball Field - The ClawofBetaball Field should be any forum.


2.4 Miscellaneous - Other optional equipment include flags, wickets (especially of the time-fracture variety), and anything else the players wish to include (Figure 2.4).

So for this ClawofBetaball game, I declare the first person to Z points win. You get these points by posting odd numbered posts. If you post in an even post you must post a funny video from Youtube, preferably with a song in it.

This post is even. Next post is odd.

But since I'm in the no rules zone, I don't need to post a video. However, this zone disappears after one use.

I'm confused.

I add to the rules that being confused is against the rules. As a penalty, we all shall call you by your new name, The Dunce with No Imagination.

Since I posted an even number post, here's a funny video.

You messed up, start over.

Unless it was on purpose. >_>

Calvinball* - Bacon - 2010-01-05

Trying too hard.

I don't want to end up being the only person playing, so I'll wait for others to join in first.

And in 2.3.

You didn't declare it a rule, you start over.

Edit: I deem you The Rule Breaker Bastard.

Thread is going to fail. Why you ask?

1. Confusing rules, not clear
2. Asking Funhouse members to make rules of their own? Hahaha.
3. Idea taken from Calvin and Hobbes
4. TL;DR
5. Organization problems.

Just wait for some idiot to come and post "I rule that ___ wins the game and you all lose."

1 How are the rules confusing? There's basically only 2 rules. One of them the real rule.
2 Also, asking Funhouse members to make rules of their own is kinda the point. It's funny.
3 I don't care if it's from Calvin and Hobbes. It's not from 4chan.
4 TL;DR Each game of ClawofBetaBall can not be played the same as the last one.
5 It's CalvinBall. What do you expect?
6 You really expect someone not able to counter whatever that idiot is gonna say?

I declare the mask rule null and void.

The Rule Breaker Bastard declares (rule 3.1; section 3 being 'Etcetera') that the word Calvin may no longer be used in this thread. Instead, one must use Nivlac.



Is that better? :|
