1. Be careful - it is traditional for people to try to trick you. This is meant to be for fun, so try not to take it too seriously if someone tries a joke on you or tries to make you believe something strange. Many people believe that someone should only be tricked in the morning; otherwise the person who is doing the tricking is the 'fool'.
