Les jeux sont faits...
Alrighty. Here's the deal.
Misfiled has sent the rules to everyone, along with their intended target. Best of luck. Just for easy reference, though, I'm posting the rules here. Also so BJ and Buddy can know what they're missing ;)
Remember, no fun if anyone cheats, no matter how clever you think you are. And knowing us, we'll all think we're wicked clever and want to tell everyone about it. (It's already killing me and Cos to not tell eachother)
The Objective: To be the last man, or woman standing!
The Mechanics:
Each player will be given a target by the referee. The player will attempt to assassinate their target. If successful, the referee will give the player their target’s target, until there is only one player left.
The Rules:
1. This is a game!
There will be no actual assassination of our friends. There will be no physical violence, or traps set that will create true bodily harm. I expect honesty and fair play (in terms of results and actions), while being sneaky as possible (in creating and executing your assassinations).
2. Secrecy is key.
You are not allowed to discuss this game with any member of the square table (excepting the referee) until the game is over. Eliminated players will not be identified to keep active players on their toes. The nature of the game is very spy vs. spy and should be kept in that tone when planning your assassination attempts. Public displays of killings may have consequences as determined by the referee. You may conspire with people outside of the game to assist, but they must be sworn to secrecy, or be kept oblivious of the nature of the game.
3. This game is active 24 – 7 until there is only one player left.
There are no safety zones and no time limit. The referee reserves the right to add complications if the game drags on due to inactivity. Don’t feel you need to rush your kill, waiting for the right moment can be your best tactic.
4. Communicate with the Referee!
- When you plan an assassination, please call/email me to verify the attack and prevent a “Not it” scenario, and confirm any special mechanics to accomplish the kill. These special mechanics will be sent as an addendum email to every agent after the kill, as to not tip the intended target’s hat.
- When you complete a kill, providing any details I may need to know about in case of any dispute, and so I can provide you with a new target.
- When you are killed, with a mini report for me to judge validity. Please also include any witnesses/innocent bystanders there may have been.
- When you have a dispute over events. I will make a call. Don’t fight it out amongst yourselves!
- When you see suspicious behaviour amongst other players. If another player is not careful, he/she may be exposed and have multiple players targeting him/her.
- If you find yourself the target of an assassination, and manage to escape death. This likely will not happen often, and I will make a call on escaping death or not. Additionally, if you have proof as to the player that set the assassination, you may add them to your target list so you can attempt to eliminate them before they have a chance to get you again.
5. Targets.
You will only kill the target you are assigned, or kill in self-defence of the player trying to eliminate you.
6. Killing!
There are countless ways of killing someone, and there is no way for me to impose rules on everything at this time. I will go over some general stuff to give you an idea. It is best to assume you are under the watchful eye of local police enforcement, so you do not want to leave a trail that can be tracked back to you. For example, in the situation where one member of a couple is targeting the other, smothering them in their sleep may be effective, but you would become a prime suspect in the death and could lead to complications at the call of the referee.
Projectiles (Guns, etc.), and weapons
– You must actually have a weapon, be it a nerf dart gun, water gun, elastic band, plastic knife, etc. and actually hit your opponent. There will be no pointing of your finger and going “Bang, your dead!” You may only use projectiles that will cause no physical damage, and nothing more then a slight sting on impact. Please clear any weapons that you will be carrying with you with the referee for safety and confirmation of possession (“Not it”). This is one of the easiest ways of taking someone down, however if you miss and they get away, you have been exposed. Also, if you miss and they are carrying a weapon, they can immediately try and take you out. At brunch, there was mention of a sniper attack. This is permissible, however it must be cleared with the referee ahead of time, with details such as time and location, and must be backed up with photographic evidence that you had a clear shot at your unsuspecting target.
Poisons, Explosives, & Traps
– You must create proof of your tampering. For example, you can poison someone’s drink by slipping a jelly bean in it. You can plant a bomb by leaving a note where the trap was placed/activated. This may not be as easy as it seems. Bombs can be timers or triggers. For timers an object agreed to be the bomb must be planted, and the target in range of it at the agreed detonation time. If the target finds it and disposes of it before the detonation, he/she will be safe. A trigger will also require a bomb to be placed, and I may require some visual tip off of the tampering depending on your sneakyness. (Example, planning a bomb in a toilet bowl tank, with the trigger being someone sitting on the seat may require a small object placed between the seat and bowl to act as a pressure point. This should of course be followed with “Bang” written on the toilet paper roll for maximum humiliation effect.)
7. Have fun, and trust no one Mr. Mulder!
