player and their team did in the game. If a player is slow getting
to the Debriefing, the TAG MASTER can temporarily skip over
him by pressing OK to move on to the next Player TAGGER to
be debriefed. The TAG MASTER will eventually come back to the
skipped TAGGER automatically and debrief it. If a player has quit
the game, reset their TAGGER or put their TAGGER to sleep (so
that their data cannot be gathered), the TAG MASTER can press
CANCEL to drop that player from the game. This should only be
done as a last resort, because all tags which that player landed
on the other players will count against the other players, but
those same other players will not get credit for any tags they
landed on the missing player.
When the Debriefing is complete, the TAG MASTER will upload
the rankings for each player and team to all the TAGGER units
automatically. All player LCD screens will display three different
options (press DISPLAY to switch between them):
• RANK – How you and your team placed in the game
• ID – What your player and team numbers are
• VS – Shows a head-to-head comparison of how you did against
each of the other players in the game. Use the INC. and DEC.
buttons to select which opposing player you want to see data
for. Each other player in the game is shown as “TxPy” (Team X,
Player Y on that team), or just “P: xx” (Player XX) if there were
ENDING GAMES EARLY
All Hosted games will normally end at the programmed time
limit. However, the TAG MASTER can declare an early end to the
game by holding 2ndF and pressing OK. The TAG MASTER will
then immediately end its own game and begin debriefing any
players nearby. All players must then be called to come to the
TAG MASTER within 2 minutes, or the TAG MASTER will count
them out of the game and they will receive no score – so make
sure everybody knows that you are calling an early end to the
game before you actually call it.
Any player who was not yet tagged out at the time the game
was called early will be considered to have not been tagged out
in the game. In Zone games, such players receive full credit as
if they had spent the entire rest of the originally-programmed
game time in the zone.
no teams. Below this are two numbers which show how many
times you TAGGED THEM and how many times they TAGGED YOU.
If “??” is displayed in the TAGGED THEM section, press OK to
request this data from the other player’s TAGGER.
In addition to these three screens, the Host has an additional
screen in which he/she can call up the RANK screen for any
player in the game.
