# It's exactly hide and seek
but for some reason, that's what we called it, and it meant you had to count to eighty.
And you prefixed everything with "40 40", as in "40 40, ready or not" and "40 40 home!"
The "No fools around me" mantra was to prevent unscrupulous kids from standing next to the 'home' and immediately getting home as soon as you looked up from counting.

# sort of
except you have to get to base and if you do you can either just save yourself or you can save all and the person who's currently 40-40 stays 40-40

"40 40 Save all" - ah, that takes me back...
