Special Slaps
Special Slaps occur at a predetermined number to increase difficulty and creativity to the game.
- Common numbers for special slaps are:
- 7,10,17,20 & 21
- They usually occur in pairs (7&17)(10&20)
- 7,10,17,20 & 21
- Common S.S's are:
- Point (10)/Double Point (20)= A player points to the person to go next while calling out the correct number
- The pointer CAN pick players NOT to their immediate left/right.
- High Cross(7)/Low Cross(17)= A player overlaps their arms (think like a genie but with space between)and depending on whether it is a high/low cross that predetermined hand indicates which player (to his left/right) continues.
- The current slapper can only go to his immediate left/right w/ the high/low cross
- Point (10)/Double Point (20)= A player points to the person to go next while calling out the correct number
- If the game is set to end with a special slap, the player counting off 21 must act out the special slap even though there is no 22.

Famous quotes containing the words special and/or slaps:
“Beauty, like all other qualities presented to human experience, is relative; and the definition of it becomes unmeaning and useless in proportion to its abstractness. To define beauty not in the most abstract, but in the most concrete terms possible, not to find a universal formula for it, but the formula which expresses most adequately this or that special manifestation of it, is the aim of the true student of aesthetics.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“Thumbs grow into my throat.
I wear slaps like a spot of rouge.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
