I also have played Calvinball and it was fabulous...it should be made an Olympic sport, how fun would that be to watch? Also, in response to Howards post, when my sister was little, she used to play noughts and crosses by adding boxes on the side when she was in danger of losing. Board games are the most fun when you flagrantly disregard the rules!!
