Having stolen the Calvinball from Kudzu, I quickly take run through not 1 but 2 wickets and around the big tree thus eliminating his lowly blue ribbon score and easily take the lead with my Statue of Liberty pose.

New rule - I am now to be added to your favorite photographer's list!

I call a Bunngle stop to the game as new players on the field aren't wearing correct masks, i score 45 points and get to point and laugh at offending players. POINT POINT LAUGH LAUGH

Having found the helmet of Spaceman Spiff I now declare all players to march to Suzies house and ask her for a smooch!

100 points for the spaceman!

I run to the genius square and get inspired to shoot the greatest photographs ever, which i make into a book and sell to everyone in the world. This means i pick up the cash flag and make a dash towards the bank square.

I throw the calvinball and tag you out 9.0000 score for me! I drag you all into the time machine and push the button sending us all back to the jurassic era and make a new rule:

Everyone must jump out, take pictures of a SABERTOOTH TIGER, touch everyone else with the sucky entry flag, and shoehorn the photograph into the next challenge.

Score -3.141a to TCGuru.

I´ll be your long haired lover from Liverpool
And I´ll do anything you say
I´ll be your clown or your puppet or your April Fool
If you´ll be my sunshine daisy from L.A

Right i've had my tea now and i'm ready for another game.

I put on my mask and grab the ball and run headlong at the next player.

I'm enacting the speedy spandex rule... all those those not wearing their official calvinball spandex are disqualified from the punchbowl for exactly 48 minutes, and have to tiptoe everywhere they go.

I'm handing the calvinball to the next person who must recite a haiku while wearing their calvinball spandex on their head. Once this is completed they may make there way to the third wicket in the Gamma Zone!

Since I didn't wait the 48 minutes I must sing the the 'I'm very sorry' song:

Me: Here's the 'very sorry song'
You: Won't you help and sing along?

Altogether: Bum bum bum

Me: I blew it!
You: He's sorry

Me: I knew it!
You: So sorry

Me: I'm very very sorry that I took your precious flaaggg!
You: Just don't do it any more, you scurvy scalawaagg!

Your punishment is: You have to carry the 12 pound bowling ball of disdain over your head as you hop from wicket 8 to wicket 2. Then you will be groovy again.

I enact the "color photo taken of a black and white world" rule. Therefore all other players must wear the "does not meet challenge" badge while I advance to 23rd base.

You have to be familiar with the "Calvin and Hobbes" comic strip from years past to understand what Calvinball is all about.

23rd base is now a sticky base, and therefore you must remain there... It has also changed from 23rd base to the 'character building' zone, so you are now miserable, and bored.

The state of Louisiana is now a reverse zone. Therefore all rules created in that state are reversed. i.e Louisiana is a sticky zone and all participants in that zone are miserable and bored.

psh.... I'm taking my calvinball and going home. =[
03/15/2007 02:00:08 PM · #21
I guess that means that I won this game...?

The great thing about Calvinball is that you can use almost anything as the ball. Fortunately, I will be able restart a new game with a 6 lb bass caught off the coast of Turkey. (Turkey bass).

I am going to fling the bass to the next person who replies to this post.
03/17/2007 07:49:01 AM · #23
I jump into the air and catch the turkeybass ball in my mouth, upon landing i slip on a blue ribbon someone has left lying around the pitch and quickly throw the turkeybass up into the air.
