What do you think about?

Posted by Christopher Llewellyn on February 1, 2008 at 9:22pm

I have a thought for a new event or activity during the summer time, fun for all ages deal. A glorified version of hide and go seek most commonly known as Man Hunt. This can start out in a small location at night and if it hits good, it can expand. What do you all think about starting something like this, this summer?

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.; ▶ Reply to This

If we could get a greater following on a weekly basis of people at Frisbee...we could translate that into a Manhunt game or possibly some other social sports.; ▶ Reply to This
