Chris Floyd @misterfoldy.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Finished my first full week of teaching "Games As Culture." Yesterday, we pushed all the tables to one side and played "GAC-ball," which started as a game similar to bocce but the winner of each round had to add a new rule to the game. The point was actually about playfulness, not rule-making. 290
