Abstract

ABSTRACTI argue that Bernard Suits’ definition of game playing, suitably extended with David Lewis’ account of coordinating conventions, is robust enough to withstand some common objections made against it. By adding this Lewisian account of how conventions function to pick out and adapt the rules of the game, I try to make good on D’Agostino’s comment that formalism can be salvaged by an account of the ethos of games, although not in the way that he himself does.
