    The document describes the rules and variants of a game called The Passed-Trap. The game is played using a wooden framework with a slippery bottom, rubber bands, disks, and a sand timer. Two players try to quickly pass all of their disks through a central trap door and into their opponent's camp using only rubber bands before time runs out. Variants include "Best of Seven" where the first to four rounds wins, "Classical" as a best two out of three format, and solitary variants like "Solitaire Madness" against the timer or "Solitaire Reflected" with a set number of tries. The "Big Slam" combines scoring from these variants into an overall points system.

    The Passed-Trap

    By Jean-Marie Albert, published by Ferti

    Rules of the Game


    THE MATERIALS:
     A framework in beech with a slippery bottom and 2 rubber bands
     10 disks
     6 pegs for scoring
     A sand timer

    HOW TO PLAY
    To begin, each player places their disks where they wish in his camp
    except in front of the trap door. The 2 players play at the same time.
    The goal of the game is to pass as quickly as possible all the disks of
    his camp through the trap and leave them in the opponent’s camp.
    The disks will not be able to be propelled except by using the rubber
    bands.

    Some precisions: The game begins after the two players touch hands.
    The players may only use one hand to move and send the disk (the
    other hand will be able to hold on to the framework). Only disks that
    go through the central trap door will be allowed – a disk that goes over
    the wall should be returned to the player that shot it. A disk that is
    located in the trap door will not be able to be played; it must be hit by
    another disk and moved first.

    THE VARIANTS
    1. The "Best of Seven" – the most played one, adds a little stress:
    The first player to win four rounds wins the match. Sequence of
    matches: one of the two players turns the timer, the players touch
    hands and commence for about 45 seconds of madness. The round
    finishes as soon as the time is done. The winner of the round is the
    player with the fewest disks in his camp. The winner places a peg in
    one of the three holes on his side. In case of a tie, it will be necessary
    to play a tiebreaker round: Begin again with 5 disks on each side, the
    players touch hands then begin playing. The first one to pass a disk
    into his opponent’s camp wins the round.
    If one of the two players passes all of the disks in his camp into his
    opponent’s camp before the granted time, then the round counts
    double, and the winner receives 2 pegs.
    2. Classical - practiced in tournaments and at the time of the French
    championship: The game plays as best 2 rounds out of three. The
    winner is the first player to win 2 matches. Use the pegs to keep track
    of the scoring.

    3. Solitaire Madness: You play alone. Place the 10 disks in your


    camp, turn the timer, clap your hands - and begin playing. The goal is
    to have fewer disks in your camp than in the opponents when the
    timer runs out.

    4. Solitaire Reflected: You play alone and without the timer. You
    must try passing a maximum of disks in 20 tries.

    5. Not a laughing matter – for a lighter mood; You will need a 1


    referee, indeed 2 is also good. Play as the standard game. If one of
    the players sees or hears his opponent laugh, they can lay down the
    timer for a moment, establish that the opponent did indeed laugh,
    then punish the cheerful one by discarding one of the disks in their
    own camp. The game then recommences, the timer is turned, the
    players touch hands…

    6. Ambidexterity – This variant plays as the standard game but a


    game plays in 2 rounds; the first round with the more skillful hand, the
    second one with the off-hand.

    THE BIG SLAM


    The big slam combines the last four variants. Every round gives a
    number of points:
    The Solitaire Reflected: 2 points per disk having crossed the trap door
    Solitaire Madness: 2 points per disk having crossed the trap door
    Classical: 30 points for each round won
    Best of Seven: 30 points for each round won

    The winner is the one with the most points.
