Hello how may I help you? I have a dire question for you that I need a quick answer to!!! What would you like to know? How do we know who to pick as the first person to be 'it' in tag? Usually the person who asks, "who's it" is it first. Really? That seems like an odd way to go about things. Is there another way that I would be able to do this> There is no official method of choosing "it" but you could try rock, paper, scissors if you don't want to use the previously suggested method. The only issue with that is that we have a group of 45 people, and that ultimate tournament of hand gestures would take all day? IS there any other method? Maybe a more democratic way of handling things? There is no official method. You could ask for a volunteer. Or draw straws. At this point we have established a feudal system of government and we will have a vote next tuesday of the candidates to be "it". Thank you so much bot for your input, as it has helped us be enlightened on a better way to chose who is "it" in this legendary game. Much thanks. You are very welcome.
