If the person knows the greek alphabet, it shouldn't take very long at all. I had to say a whole lot more while my pledge educator held the match, and usually a regular cardboard match will last at least 20 seconds and usually burns out before reaching the fingers unless the person actually "works" the match to make it burn longer (Trust me on this, while practicing for this match test I went through 12 whole match books by myself). So even if they don't "work" the match someone woudl have to really be slow not to be able to say only the greek alphabet

Ok, you are obviously missing the point. It doesn't matter how long it takes for the match to burn, THERE SHOULDN'T EVEN BE AN ISSUE OF A MATCH in the first place man! Come on now, that's just wrong, it's sadistic and mean, and I don't know why anyone would subject themselves to that. I personally think it's all disturbing. Also, how can people do this??? When the sorority I depledged was hazing me, they tried to tell us, "we're only like this during meetings, it's business, blahblahblah." Um...let's see, generally pledging can go from 5 or more weeks(here anyways), and rush is each semester...so guess what, if they're "only a bitch/jerk during pledging", they're pretty much a bitch/jerk most of the time, if not all. I say turn them in, I'm sorry I didn't when I had the chance, regardless of the details, and how likely a stupid task will actually cause harm, you know what, that possibility shouldn't exist, period. These guys may be your friends, but they need to be enlightened in the ways of respect and common decency not to mention good sense. Talk to them first by all means, and if they try to give you excuses or ignore you, let them know you will report them---and stick to it. I'm pretty much asking to be attacked by SOMEone I'm sure, but I can't help it, this is how I feel.
