'''500''' is a popular game for children of all ages and is simply played by one throwing a ball and others catching it for points. The players include a thrower, and many catchers. The thrower will decide dead (if the ball should touch the ground before being recieved), alive (if the ball should be caught directly in the air without dropping), or both. The thrower also has the responsibility to deternime the amount of points should be distributed. For example, a thrower calls out, "100, dead!" and throws the ball straight up in the air. All the catchers must wait until the ball drops to pick it up if they intend to recieve the 100 points at stake. The player who retrieves the ball correctly may recieve the points. As you may infer according to the name, the player who reaches 500 points first will become the thrower, and the thrower will become a catcher. |
