MANHUNT VS. THE HIGH STREET

Sad, but true, this will be the last manhunt before I, your humble manhunt-mom, head back to Canada for the summer. So let's make it intense. Last week's game saw some excitingly creative new strategies and bruising. That's the ticket. Let's keep it up.

Bring all your friends. Let's scare some bystanders.

BASIC MANHUNT RULES:

REGRESSIVE HIDE AND SEEK THAT'S TOTALLY RAD

Manhunt is a hide-and-seek variant. The game starts out with one person, known as the MANHUNTER, who is "it". The MANHUNTER is selected by RHYMING ELIMINATION - eliminated players are designated FUGITIVES and are free to escape while they can. The last FUGITIVE is given 120 seconds to escape before the MANHUNTER can give chase.

Play occurs within predetermined boundaries. If a FUGITIVE exits these boundaries for any reason, she/he joins the MANHUNTERS. Players are identified as being distinct from the general civilian population by means of a HIGHLY-VISIBLE ARMBAND.

If a FUGITIVE is tagged by a MANHUNTER, she or he is BRAINWASHED and forced to join the side of the MANHUNTERS. At the end of the designated time limit, or when all FUGITIVES but one have been brainwashed, the game is over, as announced by a pre-determined call. All who have not been arrested are declared the winners.

Winners are awarded the coveted MOUNTAIN GOAT MEDALLION and one pint of their choice.
