Bigger or Better

[Friendly Communist]

Tonight at my youth group we played a game "Bigger or Better". The premise of the game is you start off with a small item (tonight we started with a guitar pick) then you go house to house trading the object for something bigger or better. Tonights game was great, my team did not do that great but the some end products were awesome. My team traded from:
1. guitar pick
2. pedometer
3. better pedometer
4. Old fashion lamp
5. $40 Birch tree
6. Stroller
7. $100 bat
8. BMX Bike
We finished with a stroller and BMX bike. But I must say ours was lame compared to some others. One team had a Couch, another had Dryer, 3rd team had $20, heater, 2 ps2 games, xbox game, ps3 game, and a ROOSTER! The winning team was not that it was awesome or huge it was more a great deed. The winners brought a working central AC, the reason this was so great was when they brought it back one family at the church approached our pastor and said they had been praying for an AC and the system was donated to that family. Overall it was a great night with lots of laughs. I can't wait for the time we play. ;D

U do return the stuff, right?

Sounds like fun, need to try this out next time me and my friends have a campout. Thanks for the great idea, dude, exalt for you!

[Friendly Communist]

No! You do not return the stuff. That is why you trade them for your stuff.

[benxtaron]

Oh, so wouldn't the person who you traded with get something that is not as good as what u got?

Or am I getting confused? If I am, I blame it on the fact that it is 1 o clock in the morning. lol

[Friendly Communist]

Well yes. Like in tonight we traded something that is worth 25 cents for a step counter (worth about a dollar) they get something of less value, but if you say you are doing a game people you are nicer.

[benxtaron]

Oh, ok I get it. Sorry for being confused lol

This sounds like the little red paper clip. this dude started with this little red paper clip and through all the trading he came out witha new house....hmmm next time i'm with my cousins youth group down in north carolina i'll tell them about this maybe they could give it a try

[Friendly Communist]

It is exactly the same as him but its a competition. Plus its a way to get to know the community and get the youth groups name out there.

So this gets 7 replies but me asking for help on what bands to see gets only two from other people? interesting.

[benxtaron]

Only been to one concert, and I know you wouldn't want to hear them, Steve lol

I'll ask around and see what I can dredge up though.
