12. FINALE RULE: HAVE FUN!!!

There are two ways to issue a challenge:

1. VERBAL CHALLENGE-- This is always the initial challenge. Any player can approach an active player and issue a verbal challenge to a duel. If the challenge is accepted, both players must go to headquarters with their sts-sheets and schedule a duel.
   ↑ may be changed in the very near future...
   
2. TAG CHALLENGE-- If the challenge is not accepted, the player being challenged has the option of running away during an even ONLY. However, if the player being challenged is caught and tagged by the player issuing the challenge, the player being challenged has no choice but to accept the duel. Escape points can be redeemed at headquarters if the player issued the challenge is caught but still refuses to battle. Tage challenges are not allowed in crowded public areas like the Dealer's Room or the rooms that are holding events, workshops or panels.
