Journey to the End of the Night 2012 Official Manifest

Player Instructions
Your goal is to reach the Finish Line with a stamp from each Checkpoint without being caught by Chasers. You may walk, run, or ride CTA trains and buses. At each Checkpoint you must find an Agent to stamp your manifest. If a Checkpoint has closed, find a stranger to stamp or sign your map. If you are caught (tagged), remove your blue ribbon and give it to the Chaser who caught you. Put on your red ribbon. Your goal now is to catch other players. As a Chaser, you can only tag one Runner at a time. You must acquire the Runners blue ribbon before you can tag someone else. You are playing at your own risk. In case of game emergency, seek the nearest checkpoint agent. IN CASE OF MEDICAL EMERGENCY, CALL 9-1-1

Rules
Travel by foot or CTA only. ABSOLUTELY NO CARS, TAXIS, BIKES, SKATES, ETC. You must visit Checkpoints in order, starting with checkpoint 1. Your ribbon must be worn visibly on the upper arm at all times. Hiding your ribbon is considered cheating and is punishable by public flogging.

Tagging
All tags must be clean and fair. If theres any reasonable dispute over fairness of a tag, the Chaser loses. Dont attempt a tag unless youre sure youre in fair territory! All disputes must be settled by the Players present at the time of the tag. If the tagged Runner does not challenge an unfair tag at the time that the ribbon is handed over, the tag is fair. No disputes will be handled at Checkpoints or the finish line.
