HvZ: Essentially you have a group of players. At the beginning there is one Original Zombie (or OZ) who is generally unknown to everyone else. Every player (zombie or human) wears a bandana (yellow on our campus). If it is on your arm or leg you are a human; if it is on your neck or head you are a zombie. This is done so everyone playing knows what you are. In order to be turned into a zombie, a human must be tagged by a zombie and have their "kill card" (which has a number which can be put into the website in order to indicate a "kill" for the zombie and turn you into a zombie as well). The humans are not defenseless however; on our campus they are allowed to use sock balls to throw at and stun the zombies. If it hits the zombie, they are essentially frozen and cannot tag anyone for a period of time. This is generally a week long event by the way (at least at Tiva's and my school). Throughout the week the humans will be given missions to complete. If they fail to complete the mission they are automatically turned into a zombie. How many missions depends on the person organizing (I think our school normally has about two).

That is a general synopsis. Tiva could explain in a bit more detail on the specifics.
