These definitions are right on. However, they forgot one thing. Nose goes can only be done with a minimum of 3 people, since initiating a nose goes between 2 people is the same as just telling them to do it, which is stupid.

A quick observation game typically played to determine who will be the person to either go first or commit to an action all together. The last person not touching their nose is essentially "it".

BEST GAME EVER. if you do not want to do something like cleaning or getting off your lazy ass for cake then you touch your nose and say "nose goes" and the last person to do that, must be non lazy.

The definitions that are already there seem pretty much right except that I've never heard anyone actually say "nose goes", what I've always seen and done is that you touch your nose and say "Not it".

More frequently called "No nose goes".

It's a way to decide who has to do something you obviously don't want to do. These are the rules: someone calls "No nose goes" and the last person who touches his or her nose or whoever doesn't touch it at all is left with the task everyone else just avoided (hence NO nose goes).

There are plenty of versions of this technique. For example, a different one involves everyone having to put one of their feet in the circle (making a circle of feet with the other participants). The last person to put their foot inside the circle is left with the task.

sayiung that you dont have to do something by touching your nose and saying "nose goes"

A way of determining who has to do a task, such as close a door or turn off a light after everyone is seated. To call 'nose goes', you simply place your index finger on your nose, and say "nose goes". The last person to call 'nose goes' has to do the task.
