This is a work in progress. If you find a mistake in here please report it to the author. About This Guide (Or why this guide book exists.) The 2004 Killing Round Regulations are intended to be a comprehensive guide for both playing and running `Killing Rounds' for the K.A.O.S. (Killing As Organised Sport) game at the University of Canterbury; and to be used as a reference for other branches creating their own house rules. This guide is an attempt to distill all of the wisdom of the ages that has accumulated since K.A.O.S. was formally established at the University of Canterbury in the early 1980s, and to make it available to everyone that wishes to play the game. It is the author's fond hope that this will enable the agents of K.A.O.S. to avoid making a few of the basic screw-ups that can ruin everyone's fun and that the game will be enjoyed by all its players and administrators. Good luck! Credits
