Become an Assassin!

Posted January 26, 2006 * Comments(4)

Check this out: Street Wars.

StreetWars is a 3 week long, 24/7, watergun assassination tournament that has already taken place in New York City, Vancouver, Vienna, San Francisco and is now coming to Los Angeles.

At the start of the game you will receive a manila envelope containing the following:

* A picture of your intended target(s)
* The home address of your intended target(s)
* The work address of your intended target(s)
* The name of your intended target(s)
* Contact information of your intended target(s)

Upon receipt of these items, your (or your team’s) mission is to find and kill (by way of water gun, water balloon or super soaker) your target(s).

You can hunt your target down any way you see fit; you can pose as a delivery person and jack them when they open the door, disguise yourself and take them out on the street, etc.

If you are successful in your assassination attempt, the person you killed will give you their envelope and the person they were supposed to kill becomes your new target. This continues until you work yourself through all the players and retrieve the envelope with your (or your team’s) picture(s) and name(s). Then you win. Cash…but first live in fear.

    Reminds me of an 80s movie called “The Assasination Game”:

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084756/

    The game in the movie is similar, except one of the players decides to play with a real gun. It sounds like they thought of that already:

    Q: What’s your process for screening out overzealous freaks?

    A: You must pick up your assassination packages in person and your ID is checked. Keep in mind, we have ALL the contact information for people, it is very easy to report them to the police if things get out of hand. That said, we have never had any problems with any of our players. THAT said, there is always a chance there will be a first time and you play at your own risk.

    There are many people who would like to become an assassin, but they do not understand how it works. It’s not like in the movies where you see these atletic types with hi-tech stuff comming in trough windows etc.

    Everything you do must be planned perfectly, and then still you need to have other plans (no plan is perfect) for unexpected events. Living in a way that you can not permit to leave a trace, knowing that not only cops, but also other assassins can come for you.. One mistake and it’s game over, where the game is your life in this case :)
    So aloth of time goes to planning, sitting, watching,.. and the action itself (setting up, planting a device, dropping some poison, etc) takes very little time.

    So it’s not always a fun way to live, and only the very best get high sums, live long (relative), don’t get assassinated themself.

    So if you still want to become one, be good at it, or you’ll end up dead or locked up (where you’ll probably be killed to keep you quiet hehe).
