When TELEVISION is called (whether verbally or not), all parties involved in the current roleplaying interaction, including the person who called TELEVISION, should stop the current interaction. If you believe TELEVISION has been called but not respected, call "STOP THE GAME". The call "TELEVISION" - which is obviously OC and should not be used in character - indicates that the speaker needs to disengage from the current roleplay for OC reasons (such as anxiety, feeling overwhelmed by the situation, etc).

 All participants should be aware of the [[LARP Safety]] rules and abide by them at all times. In particular, if someone is hitting you too hard in LARP combat then you should tell them so (or if you feel unable to do so, ask a Ref to tell them so).
