Messer was looking around for someone to tag too when suddenly someone tagged him from behind. He frowned. He should had been more careful. And now apparently he's an eight.
"Hello, I'm Messer." he greeted the girl. Now, Messer need to find a day. Hmmm..
"October 27th." he said.

Then he saw a Gryffindor girl. She said she's a three so he can tag her. Slowly Messer made his way towards the girl.
"Tag! You're an eight now." he poked the girl in her arm.

Which was good though; they had fun while also incorporating some Arithmancy into the game. See! Whoever said Arithmancy was all boring calculations was sadly mistaken.
A glance at her wristwatch though told her that the lesson was nearly up and so she gave a sharp whistle to grab their attentions.
"Alright then, before we go, let's have a small discussion about the game. You can just stand wherever you are or have a seat on the floor..." whichever. This wasn't anything terribly formal where they needed to move the desks and chairs back for. "In calculating a new personal Day number, did you notice any sorts of patterns among the numbers?" Preferably something she may or may not have pointed out earlier in the lesson.
Messer heard a whistle sound come from Professor Hadley. Was that mean the game was over? DARN! He went to sit on the floor because he's pretty tired from running and tagging. He didn't really notice any pattern among the numbers, so the first year just let the other students answering that question.
