What is THE GAME (G.3)?


THE GAME aggregates, (re)creates, resurrects or recombines ideas, news, information, technologies, entertainment, created works and services from the real and virtual worlds. The "byproducts" of these interactions can then aggregate, be (re)created, be resurrected or recombine into endless competitive nodes. The totality of these nodes make up THE GAME.

The current version of THE GAME (version 0.3), or G.3 ("G point three"), is a perpetually evolving, open-ended and openly innovated omni-competition. THE GAME includes every idea and activity (or node) from the worlds of sports & recreation, business, politics, technology, internet, science, arts & entertainment, and life/style, and can be blended in endless ways with each other or with every newly created or derived idea and activity from the already mentioned worlds. Concurrently, THE GAME includes the endless modifications, recombinations (mashups, remixes, etc.) or blending of ideas and activities (existing, created or derived) from the worlds of sports & recreation, business, politics, technology, internet, science, arts & entertainment, and life/style.

THE GAME is an open and additive system. All the aggregate guidelines and rules (see the original guidelines and rules) that exist, created or modified in THE GAME derive from an open, flexible and extensible framework . THE GAME framework can be distilled as follows:
  • THE GAMEs’ participants and developers can include anyone.
  • THE GAMEs’ nodes can consist of or be based on anything.
  • THE GAME can take place anywhere.
  • THE GAME can take place at anytime.
  • GAME participants can participate in any way (all of THE GAME, several nodes in THE GAME or a single node in THE GAME; as casual, competitive or professional participants).
  • If a node in THE GAME does not exist, participants and developers are encouraged to create a new or modify an existing node; adding to THE GAME.
