Orange Cones
From RabbitWiki

We'll be using orange traffic cones to mark non-tournament games that are starting that people can join and play.
You can see a picture of one of them here: http://wunderland.com/WhatsOld/2009/WN.04.10.09.html
Summary:
- 1. Any table with a cone on it has a game with room for more players.
- 2. If you want to play a specific game, set up a cone on an open table and wait for players to find you!
- 3. Please do not remove cones from the room or use them to mark boundaries, as decorations or as game components.
- 4. Please be sure to return the cone or put it under the table when your game is full, or past the point where new players can join.
Detailed Cone Information:
If you want more players for your game, put a cone on the table; if there's no cone visible, you are telling players that your game is not open to them.
Put Out A Cone When...
- • You start a game which needs players and/or can add more players. A demo or a game anyone can join anytime may always have a cone out.
- • You’re in the last few minutes of a game which you will restart soon (less than 5 minutes), and can add more players at restart.
Remove The Cone From The Table Promptly When...
- • All possible game positions are filled, or
- • Game play advances to the point where you can’t add new players.
Cone Protocol and Hints:
- • If there is someone hovering around your coned game, ask them if they want to play. If someone sits down at your coned game, assume that they are playing!
- • Put cones well out-of-sight, under your chair or table. Do not set them on adjacent tables!
- • Please refrain from playing with the cone. Just leave it on the table.
- • Please do not remove cones from the room or use them to mark boundaries, as decorations or as game components.
