those same other players will not get credit for any tags they
landed on the missing player. In addition, the loss of that player
may count against the player’s team.
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 or four
different options (press INC and DEC to switch between them):
• PRNK – How you personally ranked in the game
• TRNK – How your team ranked in the game
• ID – What your player and team numbers are
• VS – View a head-to-head comparison of how you did
versus each of the other players in the game. To enter this
display mode, press OK then 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 no teams. Press OK to request this data from the
other player’s TAGGER and display it in a scrolling message
on your screen – if your TAGGER cannot get the data from
the other TAGGER in time, it will display “??” instead of a
number for how many times you tagged them – you can
request the information again later when the other player’s
TAGGER is closer by or not so busy. If you need to get out
of the “VS:” display, you may press CANCEL and you will be
back in the Player ID screen.
1. CLASSIC LAZER TAG (LTAG)
The object of this game is to be the last player not tagged out.
It is an aggressive, go-get-em type of game.
11 PRE-PROGRAMMED LAZER TAG® GAMES
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 2nd F and pressing OK. The TAG MASTER will
then immediately end his/her own game, proceed to un-DUAL if
needed, and then begin debriefing any players nearby. All players
must 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.
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.
NOTE: It is recommended that OWNZ, 2TOZ, and 3TOZ games
should not be ended early. If a Zone game is ended early, zone
times for players who were not tagged-out cannot be properly
calculated and this may make the rankings inaccurate.
