It's all part of this "assasination tournament" game called Street Wars. Here's how it goes:
At the start of the game, you receive a manila envelope that contains the following info on your intended target(s):
- A picture
- The home address(es)
- The work address(es)
- The name(s)
- Contact information
Upon receipt of this information, you or your team's mission is to find and "kill" (using a water gun, water balloon or super soaker) your target(s).
Granted, giving my info to strangers who are trying to "kill" me is pretty creepy, and in the wrong hands, could prove quite disatrous and stupid. But assuming all participants in StreetWars are of sound mind and body and are aware that THIS IS JUST A GAME, I'm sure this game is a shitload of fun.
The website has all the information you need: How to sign up (it's over), whom to contact (cool email address, btw), other cities that have played this game (not many), and various media clips.
What cracks me up the most are the game updates. Like this one:

Remember the movie "TAG: The Assassination Game"?
No? Just me?
This reminds me of a creepy movie called "Frailty" (starring Bill Paxton). This guy gets told by God (during his dreams) that certain people are demons and it's his job to seek them out and kill them. He's never met or heard of these people but God tells him who they are and where they live. It's a very gory movie, very intense.
†om- loved Frailty!! Intense is right! The twist in the end was awesome!
Oh trivia for those who don't know... During the time of the Crusades the members of a certain secret Muslim sect engaged people to terrorize their Christian enemies by performing murders as a religious duty. These acts were carried out under the influence of hashish, and so the killers became known as hashshashin, meaning eaters or smokers of hashish. Hashshashin evolved into the word assassin.
So as a result, you couldnt pay me to play this game. With my luck, and being the paranoid schizo I am, I would be afraid that my "assassin" would be high on crack and use a REAL gun!
