Okay so one day in science class, the teacher decided that we would play a game. Basically we were separated into groups of four-six and each group represented a country. Each country had an envelope of materials which consisted of cards which had a picture of which supply thingy you would get (Ex: scissors, staplers, glue etc) and pieces of paper. The objective was to turn the pieces of paper into strips and make a string of paper rings.
My group was America (sadly). There was another group (Mexico) which was right next to us and he others were random countries I don’t remember.
Now each country didn’t have an equal amount of resources. Some had a lot and some had little to nothing. We of course had a lot.
In the first half, everyone was content doing what they were doing. Then we went to lunch and came back and learned that we could steal from other groups.
That’s when it got chaotic. Everyone was stealing from each other, and trying to protect their stuff. Their was nothing productive going on cause you couldn’t turn your back on anyone.
Everyone kept stealing from us (especially Mexico). And in the end it was War. However everyone in my group kept blaming the stealing on Mexico which I feel is a little ironic. But it was crazy.
The only thing that stopped everyone from killing each other was the rule “no touching” which surprisingly no one broke.
