Chinese whispers-style rounds
These rounds form the general theme of Copycats. Each team plays in turn. The members of the team are each placed in cubicles separated by sliding doors. Each team member has just 10 seconds to copy the words on the card. The rounds of this form are:
- Mime Time
- An action, conveyed by miming. Examples are, "Flipping a pancake" or "Clipping Your Toenails".
- Quick on the Draw
- An object, drawn rapidly on a whiteboard.
- Music Round
- A musical piece, conveyed by performing it on a kazoo, or by mouthing the words clearly to the next team member.
In each case, the entity to be identified is given to the first member of the team, who must communicate it to the second by the given means, who must in turn communicate it to the third, and so on. The last, sixth member is then asked what was being mimed, drawn or played. If this player correctly identifies the action, object or tune that was originally supplied, the team scores 50 points. Otherwise, the remaining players are asked in turn, with the available score decreasing by 10 for each player who fails to answer correctly.
The winner of Mime Time (or if the game is a draw, the winner of a rock-paper-scissors game) will then play the first physical challenge, with the other team playing after Quick on the Draw.
