Humans vs Zombies Tag Game


To whom it may concern:

The registered student organization, UW Humans vs Zombies tag, intends to run our Winter Quarter game from January 22nd to January 25th.  The goal of our game has always been to provide a game that strengthens community ties while promoting a fun and safe environment. Due to events that occurred in Newtown, CT we are in communication with UWPD. We have made a couple amendments to our rule set for this quarter’s game. The first being to pause the game after dark (paused between 5:00pm - 6:00am, and to resume at 6:00am the next morning), and the second to ban clothing that could appear to promote violence or real life war scenarios. We are also asking students to act as they normally would if there was not a game going on.

We have always had players moderating the game, but simple human capacity ensures that we cannot be everywhere and observe everyone playing the game at all times.  We therefore kindly ask for your help. 

If you observe a player of the game doing something you feel is contradictory to the rules, please ask for their name, and report them to us. In order to take action against the player in violation, we only need their name. We will then be able to look them up in our database, and from there we will be able to contact them and enforce our policies/rules. 

Please note that players:       

Will not play indoors,         

Will not play after dark, ·         

Will play with standard, brightly colored and easily distinguishable nerf blasters, 

Will not play in parking garages 

Listed below is the contact information for the administrators of the game. If you are interested in a full set of the rules, please email us. If you have any concerns, please contact us directly. 


Thank you,
