Greetings everyone!!! For those of you who have not yet heard, people have been enjoying mind-blowing fun. Doing what? Well, a series of urban games such as Manhunt, Dodgeball, and Capture the Flag. These games are held weekly and are often in the downtown core, but always close to the Skytrain stations for easy access. Manhunt is the main game and is serious chaos as you have 30-60+ players running and hiding all over the downtown core trying to avoid or hunt others; specifically to those who have no idea what we are doing. Every alternate week one of the other games is played, and new events will be tried and added in the future. Anyone can come, and it is totally free. We are all out to have fun and although it is fun to win, no one ever feels bad if they do not; this is nothing alike to the lame competitiveness that people had faced in high school. So come out and get involved; this is not something to procrastinate. Remember:

#1 - The first rule of Manhunt is, you do talk about Manhunt.
#2 - The second rule of Manhunt is, you DO talk about Manhunt.
#3 - If someone says stop, goes limp, taps out, the game is not over (unless they go limp, if this happens, you may need to call an ambulance).
#4 – Unlimited people to a game.
#5 – One or more games at a time.
#6 - No shirts, no shoes, no service.
#7 - Games will go on as long as they have to (Generally last one hour).
#8 - If this is your first night at Manhunt, you have to play.

BASIC MANHUNT RULES:

Manhunt is a hide-and-seek variant. The game starts out with one person, known as the MANHUNTER, who is "it". After the manhunter has been selected, the FUGITIVES have 120 seconds to hide.

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, all FUGITIVES who have not been arrested are declared the winners.

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.
