I think it depends on the table itself, and the type of players you're playing. If you do become aggressive, make sure to target those that will pay you off. If you're image was tight before this situation, maybe you can bluff people out of pots. I normally tend to be tight, waiting for a big hand while I still have a decent chip stack. Avoid confrontations this early in the tournament, unless I'm in w/a big hand PF.

Probably what I would do because TAG is my standard game

I think the decision is entirely situational.With an average stack, i'd just play averagely. Don't think about it as LAG and TAG, think about what the situation of the hand dictates, would it be profitable to make a steal at the weak tight blinds when it's folded to you in the CO? If so, raise, if not, fold. When you're average in chips, i really think the best idea is to just play the situation and forget about how LAG/TAG you're trying to be.If you were the chip leader or had a really massive stack i think you have a big advantage over the other players and should use it by being more aggressive than you would normaly be. Some people say it's better to play normaly, but imo if you have more chips than everyone at your table it's a mistake not to use it to your advantage.
