Nose goes or the nose game, also uncommonly called the 'rule book of nose goes', is a popular selection method most commonly used when deciding which of several persons is assigned an unwanted task. Whoever touches their nose last must do the task.

Rules[edit]

The game may have different rules depending on area, but commonly:

  1. At any time, anyone can put their finger on their own nose and call out a color.
  2. Thumbs do not count, it must be a finger.
  3. This signals everyone paying attention to do the same.
  4. The last person to put their finger on their nose or calls out the same color as someone else loses, and gets assigned the task.

Example of play[edit]

One member of a group notices that something (usually a small or simple errand or task) needs to be done. They mention it and then call the name of the game, placing their index finger on the tip of their nose. As the other members of the group acknowledge the task, they also place their index fingers on the tips of their noses. The last person to do this is the person who has to perform the task. Toes may count if one's hands are unavailable at time of 'nose goes'. In many versions of the game, the starting player must shout 'No nose goes', 'Not it', or 'Nose goes!' to begin the game,[2] however, in other versions no announcement is necessary, and simply the last person to notice the game has to perform the task.[1]

Variations[edit]

Nose goes can be silently initiated by an individual of an unwanted task or bill. Last person to realize nose goes has begun and places their finger on their nose is stuck with the task or bill.[1]

Another nose game arose in 2006, though only vaguely related to the original. In this version, each player must hold his or her thumb to his or her nose. The last player to remove their thumb is declared the winner. Thumbs may be exchanged during play as long as at least one thumb remains on each player's nose.[citation needed]

In some American versions of the nose game, there is an additional feature to promote fair competition. The initiator of the nose game must loudly and clearly count from 1 to 3. This allows the other participants to prepare themselves for the game. If a participant makes a significant movement of his hand towards his nose before the counting is complete, he is disqualified and forfeits the game.[citation needed]

A slightly different version of this game is frequently played in the Netherlands, mostly in student circles. The basics are the same, except instead of touching their nose, participants must make a 'dakje' (Dutch; 'roof') above their head by placing the tips of their fingers together and making an upside-down V ('/'). The game is usually started out by one person who acknowledges a task that needs to be done, and calls out 'zonder' ('without') followed by the task. People who make the 'roof' are exempt from having to do the task, and so the last person to make the roof is the one who has to do it.[citation needed]

Similarly to the version in the Netherlands, a version in NW Ohio has participants first make the traditional signal - index finger to nose - but then put their finger tips together above their heads in the roof motion, declaring 'tree!' when in position.[citation needed]

A common variant in Portugal involves calling out 'last one to touch the sky', before touching the roof of the mouth (literally, the 'sky' of the mouth in Portuguese).[citation needed]

Another variation states that players must drop to one knee, with the last person standing to be the one who must do the task at hand. It is known in western Canada as 'Dibs out, knee down'. It was developed as a way to keep friends from bickering about who said 'dibs out' first. By having players drop to one knee, it is easy to see who the last man standing is.[citation needed]

'Tebow's nose' is version played by touching the nose, bowing the head, and bending down on one knee – similar to a pose made popular by American football player Tim Tebow. This version of the nose game originated in Colorado around the time Tebow played for the Denver Broncos.[citation needed]

Breaking ties[edit]

In case of a perceived tie, there are a number of ways to determine the winner. One way is to maintain the position of your finger on your nose, and bend down on one knee while giving yourself the 'bunny ears'. The first to do this breaks the tie.[citation needed]

Sometimes, the losing player is allowed to say 'reload', in which case, all members must touch their foot with the nose hand and return their finger to their nose, with the last person back being the actual loser.[citation needed] This method could also be used to break ties.[2]
