Paper #1 GAME
Part 1
GAME: Definition 1. A game is a competitive event having winners and losers , such as Poker, Horse Shoes, Chess or Basketball. [This definition is fails rule number 1 directly because it contains a list of games to justify the definition. It also happens to be too narrow in that it lists only one composite of a game but at the same time ifs too broad because most games have winners and losers. ... ]
Definition 2a. A game consists of one or more players and has a winner and/or a loser. Each game ha an appropriate setting. ... The necessary equipment for each game may vary, depending on the specific game chosen.[This definition fails because it is too broad. It gives details that can be fulfilled by a multitude of games, but none specific enough to clearly identify an individual game. ... ]
Definition 2b. A game is designed for the pleasure of its user. ... [This is totally too narrow a definition. ... ]
Definition 3. A game consists of multiple and/or a single player. ... [This definition clearly is not a list so it fulfills Rule #1. This definition limits its quantifiers because if it does not use these defines tools, then it must not be a game; therefore, it is too narrow. ... But it mainly fails because it is using unfamiliar terms that are recognized by the person who doesn’t recognize the definition of ‘game’.
