You 'tap out' when you've lost a fight. Just hit the ground a few times with the palm of your hand and your opponent (should) accept it as a signal you've surrendered. If they don't, the ref steps in and hauls him off.
I'm pretty sure it's a fairly universal signal in the fighting arts. (I hope!)

But yeah, I'm having fun with this addiction!
