Hello how may I help you? hi I have a question about the game of tag. What is your question? How do you choose the first person to be "it". The first person to ask who's it, is it. Is that how it has always worked? As long as I've been an all knowing bot Have you ever heard of a neutral person selecting a number and then the players select a number and who ever selects the neutral persons number (or the person closest to it) is chosen to be it? Ask me who's it? ask you whose it? You're it!
