This paper provides an example which indicates that updating player’s knowledge is not straightforward in the conventional model of knowledge, and a framework, using players’ perceptions of information partitions, which allows us straightforward knowledge updating. An analogue of the concept of common knowledge, called common thought, is proposed, and the equivalence of the concept of common knowledge and that of common thought under the condition of perception of finest common coarsening of the players’ information partitions is verified.
