Sign up on April 4, 2011 in the lobby from 11:30-2:30. We will email your target to you the following day. If you have any questions, concerns, or anything else contact Kristen in the Student leadership office, or email: Kristen.branson@Skagit.edu.
The game is to be played ON campus. Chasing your target down in the grocery store (for example) is unacceptable. Class times, as well as on campus jobs, are off limits for approaching your target. Inside the library, book store, the financial aid office (this applies to people in line as well), the counseling center, and any other office are also off limits. In line at the cafeteria or in the student center, waiting for classes to begin, etc are fair game. Hiding in a classroom that is not in session is not viable, you are still fair game. Be aware of class times and your surroundings- while ducking into a vacant classroom is great, running through a class in session is absolutely not allowed. This is still a college campus, though we try to make the experience as fun as possible, not everyone will be playing.
While on campus, during ‘game time’ ducks must be visible. This means if you take your duck off for work, or class, it should be put back on immediately afterwards. You may choose how and where on your person to display the duck.
It is up to you to seek out your target. Use contacts on campus, facebook, etc to find out who your target is. The target you have will also have a target, the object of your target’s hunt will now be your target. Take all ducks your target has and continue on.
Keep watch for people asking questions about you, new friends on facebook, etc. You may evade the person, but cannot hide your duck or disrupt any campus activities- ie classes- during the evasion. You may run, however, if the person hunting you asks you by your name for your duck consider yourself captured and relinquish the duck peacefully.
The game is intended to be friendly. Violence of any kind is prohibited, and our campus rules apply absolutely. You may continue ‘hunting’ your target, this means that you will now be in a race against the person hunting you to locate your target.
You MUST email in to studentlife@skagit.edu when you have captured your target. On Cardinal Day we will have a jousting ring available for final battles, if there is a tie for most ducks obtained the tie breaker will take place here. It is imperative that captures are reported to reduce cheating. If you do not report your captures you will be disqualified.
The use of ‘decoy ducks’ is unacceptable. We have a list of players and their ducks. Please do not replace your duck, if something happens that requires a replacement please contact Kristen or student life to explain and request a new duck.
The game will end Thursday June 1, 2011, with the final battles, winners, and prizes on Cardinal Day- June 3.
Game On!!
