instructionsInstructions

1. The participants are divided into male and female participants.

2. The game master now decides the ‘value’ of each male and female participants. For example, the male participants will be worth 5 cents and the female participants will be worth 10 cents each.

3. When the round begins, the game master calls out a value:” Form… 25 cents!”, the participants have to scramble to get partners to form a group to form an equivalent of that value.

4. For example, 5 guys at 5 cents each would have to group together to form that 25 cents, or 2 girls and 1 guy, or 3 guys and 1 girl, and so on.

5. The participants who fail to join a group to form their 25 cents would have to perform a forfeit after the game is over.

6. So the next round begins when the game master calls out another value,” Form… 15 cents!” and so on.

7. To vary the game play, the game master can change the ‘value’ of the male and female participants in between rounds.

8. The game master will decide when the game should end and then the people who picked up the most forfeit points would have to do a forfeit for everyone!
