Fall Quarter Assassins Q&A

Killing: Tag your target's top arm (either if ambidextrous) with a copy of the bus schedule with your victim’s name written on the front it. If you die, hand your copy of the bus schedule to your killer. To speed up the game, you have two weeks to kill your target. If you fail to kill your target within two weeks you immediately become a zombie.

Zombies: After 1 day your kill becomes a zombie. Zombies eliminate ANY REMAINING assassin by sticking tape onto their victim's bottom arm. Zombies may continue 'living' for the rest of the game, but they are out of the game once they make a kill. Those eliminated by zombies immediately become zombies. Want safety from zombies? Wear a condom attached to the front of your shirt/jacket/outermost later. The condom must be visible and it may be inside its original packaging.

The last remaining assassin is the winner, despite the number of zombies leftover.

Safe zones:
- During class.
- Work
- Bathroom
- Apartments/homes/dorm rooms (not hallways, the actual rooms).
- Any DRD event. GMs, socials organized by DRD, practice (but not lunch, teehee), drylands, etc. Parties do not count unless hosts specifically request that Assassins isn't played. IM games that DRD members participates in do not count since they are not organized by DRD.

HOWEVER, if you invite your assassin into your home then it is no longer safe. No other player can see you kill your target. Same rules apply to zombies.

What constitutes an arm (for the sake of this game): From the shoulder blade down to the fingertips.

Your killer doesn't necessarily need to make skin contact for it to be a kill, though pre-approved shields may be used.

Is there anything about witnesses?

Oops. I think I deleted it when making corrections.

Your kill cannot be witnessed by any other player.

Can we use backpacks as shields? What about drawstring bags?

if our target lives with people outside of drd or are not playing and we get invited into their house by them, can we still kill our target?

Is tabling considered a safe zone?
lawls at hella paranoid people sitting at the table xD

YOU have to invite your assassin in. Otherwise the house is safe.

Tabling is safe.

What about going to the loo? And is there ANY way to defend yourself from your assassin?

Use your teeth and steal their bus schedule

so do you have to kill your target within 2 weeks of receiving your target every time? or just the first target within 2 weeks (i.e. after the first 2 weeks there is no time constraint)?

Posts : 390 Join date : 2011-06-22

2 weeks max between every kill.

So then the answer is no.. There isn't a condom equivalent to protecting yourself from your assassin.

^Shield.

Backpacks and drawstring bags will count. So do conventional looking shields. Make sure I pre-approve the shield though.

Hey Donny,

What is considered "class" as a safe zone?

Is it like last year where class starts at the listed time and ends at the listed time and you are vulnerable IN the classroom before and after class starts?

Or are classrooms in general a safezone this year?

I mean 'class' as in something they're enrolled in. They're safe in the classroom during the listed times of the lecture/discussion/lab/etc. Basically, if there is instruction going on and they're part of the class, then they're safe.

Classrooms that the target(s) are not in a registered class for are not safe.

No i mean like say my class starts at 11AM. But I am in class at 10:55 and hit. Am I dead?

You class ended at 11:50, I'm guessing. Since the allotted class time is over then you're dead.

If it was a two-hour class or something then you would be safe.

Edit: Kills count of if it isn't during allotted class time.

If you're in class, waiting, at 10:55 and your class starts at 11:00 then you're dead if you're killed.
