The rules

How to play

1

On 'go', everyone tries to tag everyone else while dodging tags themselves.

2

If you're tagged, you sit down where you are.

3

If two players tag each other at the same moment, both sit.

4

Sitting players may still tag runners who come close.

5

Last player standing wins, rounds last about a minute, so play lots.

Keep it fair

Simultaneous tags mean both sit, make it the loud rule of the game and the 'you first!' argument disappears.
