RULES

 Candidates are authorized — and strongly encouraged — to view the intelligence briefing video as many times as necessary. Pause it. Rewind it. Watch it with friends. C.A.B.A.L. approves of thorough preparation.

 Candidates may research locations, consult maps, and gather contextual information relevant to the briefing. The use of publicly available information is permitted. The use of C.A.B.A.L.'s internal databases is not permitted. You do not have access to those. Probably.

Our entire field exercise revolves around having the knowledge and resourcefulness to locate one of our exclusive C.A.B.A.L. tokens. Once you have reviewed our latest "drop" briefing video, you are able (and highly advised) to go out and be the first to retrieve the hidden token.

Our advanced tokens are equipped with "NFC" (Near Field Communication) technology. This means that you have the ability to "tap" the back of your phone against it in order to receive a special congratulatory message and further instructions on completing the Field Recruitment Exercise and becoming an official C.A.B.A.L. initiate.

In order to complete the Field Recruitment Exercise, you must be willing to document finding a token. Record a video of yourself finding the token and also the location that you found it at. Then, submit the video to us so that we can share with the rest of our network what a qualified candidate you are.

 Candidates may work in groups. Share theories. Coordinate search efforts. Pool resources. C.A.B.A.L. permits collaboration while noting that only one individual may claim the prize. Choose your allies wisely.

 Candidates are encouraged to share information about the Field Recruitment Exercise with others who may be interested. C.A.B.A.L. welcomes new candidates. More candidates means more data. C.A.B.A.L. needs as much data as possible to legitimize our dangerously premature investment in data centers.

Typically, our attitude toward contact from unauthorized outsiders is, "Don't Contact Us--We'll Contact You" but we are willing to make an exception for candidates involved in the F.R.E. Feel free to fill out our compulsory "Contact Form", or send us a message through any of our associated social media platforms. A low-level bureau administrator will contact you whenever they deem it convenient.

Though the Coalition has unspoken domain across the majority of the globe through corporations, multinational conglomerates, banking cartels and misleading shell companies, we still prefer to maintain an illusion of non-existence. For all intents and purposes we need you to understand that you do not have permission to trespass on land or property that does not belong to you. All tokens will be hidden at public locations with safe access and ample parking. If at any point during the exercise, you feel that you are about to enter onto property that does not belong to you, turn around immediately. We will never ask or obligate you to trespass on private property at any point during the Field Recruitment Exercise.

All tokens will be placed in an openly accessible location. They will never be buried, cemented, or otherwise integrated into structures. Candidates must not damage, disturb, or alter any property in the course of their search. If finding the object requires breaking or damaging ANYTHING, you are looking in the wrong place. You alone will be responsible for any damage that you cause, and it will be grounds for disqualification from any prize you may have otherwise won.

This exercise is meant to be competitive, not combative. Candidates must not physically interfere with, obstruct, or otherwise impede other candidates. C.A.B.A.L. encourages spirited competition. C.A.B.A.L. does not endorse anything that would require injury or legal involvement.
