FORFEIT

1. 4 students are judges (wait in the hall)

2. The rest of the students - place a small item in the box (shoelace, a pen...)

3. The judges come back and each pick one item from the box. The judges do not show the items to the students, they only describe their item.

4. If you think it is your item that is described, identify yourself! - You need to win back your item! Therefore... do something funny that the jury will find amusing (the rest of the students)

5. Only by impressing the jury you win back your item.
