Welcome back, Killers.

Oh, ho ho. you vicious men and women. Welcome to Spectrum Assassins 2011. I know you're here to hunt, but ya gotta know the rules.

Actually, some of you probably don't even know the game. let's start there:

If you have signed up for assassins with Cassie, and given her your money, you will be expected to meet at 11:59 pm on Monday October 3rd in the intramural fields. There you will be given your target (a human being that is also playing the game) and your gun (a water gun…). Oh, but slow down Sparky, because hunting doesn't start yet. That'd be too easy. No, you have a few hours to marinate, maybe stalk out your target, be slick and get the skinny on where you can find them. When you can find them. How you can find them. Every interrogative should be covered, and then, on noon on the very next day (Tuesday the 4th)  the games begin. Do whatever you need to destroy your target, or at the very least… dampen them? After you make your kill, text your girl Cassie; take your next target from your victim; and kill, kill again.



Assassins is a game of wits and vigilance. Strategize, and be aware of your surroundings. Wear a disguise. Get plastic surgery. Commit identity theft. I don’t care what you do! (as long you actually don’t commit identity theft… that’s troublin’ to me. Fix your morals.)



Okay, let’s get some law talk out of the way. These are the rules to the games, as they stand.





1.The only way to assassinate a person is to hit them in the torso (neck, arms, back, legs, and face are not valid.)

2.Cannot block torso with anything, e.g. backpacks, other people, etc.

3.Assassination does not count if there is a witness present. A witness is anyone still playing the game. Enablers count as witnesses.

4.You may only shoot the person you have and can only continue to assassinate your next victim after one of the enablers have been informed of the previous assassination.

5.You may only use the gun we have supplied to you. No supersoakers!

6.You may not force yourself or break into someone’s room. If you are let in the assassination is valid.

7.Please be cautious not to hurt anyone when attempting to make an assassination.

8.You may fire at any person you suspect to be your assassin and will be granted a ten minute grace period to escape.

9.A target may not be assassinated when they are inside of a classroom that they are currently enrolled in, a rehearsal space they are currently cast in and/or working on, a professor’s office in which they are meeting, a Spectrum club meeting from the time the meeting begins to when it adjourns and when they are in any type of work setting including an RA office. However, a target may be assassinated during any type of break or any time they are not physically inside these spaces. Also, the Alpha Psi Omega Halloween Party is a safe zone.

10.Most of all, this game is designed to be fun and encourage healthy competition. Please take that into consideration. Play fair, have fun, and get to shooting.





I’ll see you all in the field at 11:59 on the 3rd. Let's go hunting. It’s people season!
