    Spoon Assassins 2002
    Grove City College

    A. Getting started

    A-1.

    Everyone who wants to be a spoon assassin will receive a plastic spoon.

    A-2.

    Your plastic spoon will have your name on it.

    A-3.

    Everyone will also receive a secret name of one of the other spoon assassins in the game.

    A-4.

    That name is to be kept secret.

    A-5.

    If you forget your secret name, contact the Spoon Master (don't call Gee - she's playing the game and doesn't have the list).

    A-6.

    If you don't know who your victims are, use stealth and cunning finesse to uncover their identities. NO CLUES will be provided about the identity of your intended victims.

    A-7.

    If you're not already in the game, it's too late to join. Sorry... Let the Games Begin!

    B. What to do with your spoon

    B-1.

    Your spoon must be on your body at all times.

    B-2.

    Your spoon must be visible at all times (see Rule C-5).

    B-3.

    Your spoon may not be attached to your body so that it would not be able to be taken off: no duct tape, Amy Bowers.

    C. Goal of the game

    C-1.

    Your goal is to "assassinate" the person whose name you receive.

    C-2.

    This may be done through stealthy operations, sly maneuvering, or rugby-type approaches. All is legal as long as no one gets hurt.

    C-3.

    To "assassinate" is to take another person’s spoon.

    C-4.

    For example (using "Jack" and "Jill"):

    • Jack and Jill both have a spoon.
    • Jack’s spoon has Jack’s name on it.
    • Jill’s spoon has Jill’s name on it.
    • Jack’s secret name is "Jill".
    • Jack’s goal is to assassinate Jill.
    • Jill doesn’t know that Jack has her name.
    • Jack "assassinates" Jill (by somehow taking her spoon).
    • Jill is now out of the game and gives all spoons AND secret names that she has to Jack.
    • Jack now tries to assassinate whoever Jill was supposed to assassinate.

    C-5.

    If someone tries to assassinate you and you don't have your spoon on you, you're out of the game and have to hand over your secret name (see Rule B-2).

    C-6.

    Game continues until there is one person left with all the spoons or the semester ends

    D. Restrictions

    D-1.

    No assassinations in the bedroom.

    D-2.

    No assassinations in the classroom.

    D-3.

    No assassinations in the bathroom (that would have to be censored or something).

    D-4.

    No assassinations in the chapel.

    D-5.

    Dorm Hallway Assassinations ARE ALLOWED.

    E. Disclaimers

    E-1.

    No, there is no point to this game except for good clean fun.

    E-2.

    So if you don't like fun don't sign up.

    E-3.

    No, there are no prizes unless someone is willing to donate something. Let Gee know (x 2695) if you are.

    E-4.

    It’s mad quality fun.
