No, I meant that Glen is right and you are wrong, in spite of the superficial transactional evidence back and forth.    Actual quotation marks, and you can’t see why is he annoyed?

Sorry, Marcus, do I misunderstand?  Or did I misunderstand Frank?

A pingpong game is not a proper emergent?

Cf tennis and chess:

To call a social interaction a
dance is to stress the peraction of social agents. When agents peract,
they act through or by means of one another. Each has a state
of affairs toward which his or her behavior is directed, and that
state of affairs requires certain actions on the part of the social
partner. The behavior of each actor is therefore directed toward
using the other as a tool to produce a particular desirable result.
The dialectic between their peractions is the dance. From an observer’s
standpoint, the best dances, like the best chess games and
the best tennis matches, are those in which neither peractant entirely
gets his or her own way.

To the outside observer, a ping pong game has emerged.

No. Again, I would never say that. Why are you interacting this way? What are you trying to achieve by attributing things to me that I didn't write?
