Red Rover rules
Two teams line up opposite each other, no more than 30 feet apart. The first team agrees to call one player from the opposite team, and chants, “Red Rover, Red Rover, send (player's name) on over!” The person called runs to the other line and attempts to break the chain (formed by the linking of hands).

I remember that part but what happens after

@croccin-champagne

If the person called fails to break the chain, this player joins the team that called Red Rover. But, if the player successfully breaks the chain, he may capture either of the two players whose link was broken by the dash, and bring them back to his original team. Teams take turns calling out Red Rover and challenging a player on the opposing team.

What's weird about kid games is I never remember being taught them. I've never had to teach a kid game to a child. They seemingly just know. And then when we grow up, we forget how to play. I've forgotten how and who taught me, if anyone.

I learned a lot during elementary school phys ed

@berlioz

Sometimes we played tag or hot lava, but usually we'd play pretend. I played a lot of pretend in elementary.

@berlioz

What is hot lava?

Where the ground is lava, so you can't fall or touch it. If you do, you can either sit out and wait for the next game or be a lava monster and try to pull people down of the playground equipment and stuff. You couldn't just sit around on top of something though, you had to move around, make it risky.

I played red rover when I was younger but recall nothing about the linking of hands..
I think the red rover I played was different because instead of the linking of hands, you had our gym; the two teams standing opposite of each other in a line

“Red rover red rover we call (player’s name) over” so the person who’s called walks to the middle of the gym, and has to run across to the other side while dodging the dodgeballs thrown by the team that called them over. If they get hit they go to the team that called them over’s side. If they make it they go back to their original side.
The thing about this version is that some people WHIP the ball so if you get hit by them then it can hurt and those are my faint memories

Speaking of gym games I also remember my class made called Trumpball in 2016 and it was where you had three (I forget what they were called..they’re kinda like thick mats) mats and you stood them up vertically on each side of the gym for the two teams, pushing it up to six mats in total.
And the goal of the game is to knock out all three mats; the concept of the game of course derives from my class at the time’s obsession with trump (even though we were Canadians) and “trump’s wall” hence using the mats as walls for protection

I’ve got fond memories

alright ima just pop in for a bit and then return to just lurking but-

dont you just hate it when a new person joins a server with nearly 4k people in it (now that i say this, i realise that we're a pretty big server- huh) and they try to get people to donate to them for a midi keyboard, saying they dont have money.

oh but that's not all- this wouldn't have bugged me if this hadn't happened- they then proceeded to try to ping everyone (yes, all 4000 people, bots and all) because, idk, it was just "too important a cause and everyone needed to know about it"
ksdlkjdskljdfskjlds
no, you absolutely do not need to ping everyone
i don't know what was going through this guys head as he did this but
you do not ping a server with that many people in it unless you have a good reason
not just some "i dont have money and i def cant take commissions for this music i claim to be able to produce but somehow i can take donations" excuse or whatever

okay that's all, ill go now-

Yeah. And the kids these days don't know them. Were we supposed to teach them? Have we failed our duty?

Was being a lava monster someone just refusing to die?

Being a lava monster was a promise to pass on the fate of death by lava. Kind of like revenge on the survivors for surviving.
