We know it, we love it, we shout it like darned fools before nearly every game! it's the Code of Honor!!!

That having been said, let's take a closer look at the Code Of Honor (or Honour, for those North of the border!)

I will not run, climb, or jump;

I will not sit, kneel, or lie down;

I will not cover any targets;

I will not use offensive language;

I will not make physical contact with other players;

I will play hard, play smart, and play to survive!

We know these by heart; these are the rules that separate us from the lawless hooligans of those "other" systems. These rules make Laser Quest, more than any other lasertag system, closer to a sport than a game.

But what does the code sound like in France??
Or Spain??
Laser Quest is international, and we'd better be ready to meet our counterparts someday!

I am taking peoples' words on these! If you know that I messed these up, please let me know!
If you can send me the Code in a language I don't have here, LET ME KNOW! You will get FULL credit for it! So impress us all with your language skills! GET TO WORK!

(courtesy Leif, Formerly of LQ Edmonton; he is sending me an exact version soon - this is his best guess!)

Jeg skal ikke springe, klatr, elle hoppe
Jeg skal ikke sitte, nelle, eller legge ned
Jeg skal ikke blokere noen maal
Jeg skal ikke roere noen andre spillera
Jeg skal ikke bruke stygge ord
Jeg skal spille hardt, (smart?), og spille till og live!

Ia illwa otna unra, limbca roa umpja
Ia illwa otna itsa, neelka, roa iela ownda
Ia illwa otna overca nyaa argetsta
Ia illwa otna akema hysicalpa ontactca ithwa theroa layerspa
Ia illwa otna seua ffensiveoa anguagela
Ia illwa laypa ardha, martsa, ndaa laypa ota urvivesa!

no correré, treparé, ni saltaré
no me sentaré, me arrodillaré, ni me echaré
no cubriré mis objectivos
no usaré lenguaje ofenciva
no iré en contacto con otros
jugaré duro, jugaré listo, y jugaré a vivir!!!

French

Je ne courerai, grimperai ou sauterai pas !
Je ne m'assesevrai, m'agenouillerai ou ferai pas un sieste !
Je ne dissimuler pas encore les cibles !
Je n'utiliserai pas la langue offensant !
Je ne ferai pas le contacte physique avec les autres joueurs !
Je jouerai dure, jouerai habile et jouerai pour survivre !

Dutch
(courtesy KILLERMAN/Michel Koenen, LQ Eindhoven; who informed me that not only do they not repeat the Code in the Netherlands, they have two extra: I will not use drugs, and I will not smoke (!)

De Laser Quest Erecode:
Ik zal niet rennen, klimmen of springen
Ik zal niet gaan zitten, knielen of liggen.
Ik zal geen raakvlakken bedekken.
Ik zal geen aanstootgevende taal uiten.
Ik zal andere spelers niet aanraken.
Ik zal een moeilijke tegenstander zijn en speel om te overleven.

Scottish Gaelic
(courtesy Me and a Gaelic dictionary, LQ Madison Heights; I did my darndest, but I'm sure some Gaelic-speaker will laugh their butt off at this. . . but hey, I tried!!)

Mi cha reis, na streap, na leum!
Mi cha crùb, na sleuchd, na laighe!
Mi cha falaich mo cuspair!
Mi cha mallaich!
Mi cha stailc eile armuinn!
Mi ni cluich gleusda, cluich tapaidh, agus cluich a cothaich!

German
(courtesy Wildcard/Justin, LQ Fullerton)

Ich laufe nicht, klettere oder springe;
Ich sitze nicht, knie oder liege unten;
Ich umfasse keine Ziele;
Ich verwende nicht beleidigende Sprache;
Ich bilde nicht körperlichen Kontakt mit anderen Spielern;
Ich spiele stark, das intelligente Spiel, und das Spiel zum Überleben!

Portugese
(courtesy Wildcard/Justin, LQ Fullerton)

IEu não funcionarei, não escalarei, nem não saltarei;
Eu não me sentarei, não me ajoelharei, nem não me encontrarei para baixo;
Eu não cobrirei nenhuns alvos;
Eu não usarei a língua ofensiva;
Eu não farei o contato físico com outros jogadores;
Eu jogarei duramente, jogo esperto, e jogo a sobreviver!
