Hat Wars
The hattiest extreme knitting tournament in the world
where both crocheters and knitters compete
Sign-up, and you will receive a top-secret file containing your target's information. To "kill" your target, you must follow the pattern to make a weapon (a hat), and mail it to your target. Your target is "dead" when they receive your weapon. Your target then sends their incomplete weapon to you, along with their target's information, and you complete their weapon to kill their target. At the same time you are trying to kill your target, your assassin is trying to kill you. Join us and find out how exciting a trip to the mailbox can be as you open it each day to find out if you have killed, or whether you have been killed.
Deadline to register for Hat Wars II - A View to a Kill - was September 1, 2009
Dossiers were emailed September 5, 2009 and September 6, 2009
Killing started September 18, 2009
The Diagram of Death is a spreadsheet which shows
who has killed, and who has been killed.
