The coolest part is when everybody realizes they are on the winning team, we could learn a lot from that

YES

Feel I should say a big Thank You Mark. I've used a number of your methods with Agile software development Scrum teams over the last few years. If Agile isn't an area you currently work with, then you should get involved. We love this sort of stuff!

[@playmeo-group-games]

Michael, somehow I have managed to miss your note. Thanks for commenting, I'm so pleased you are loving our resources. I'm not familiar with Agile software - can you tell me more?

[@donboscoanimationcenter7799]

We did it with 28 participants and our record is 7.32 sec after 20 attempts...................ye Incredible India...........Don Bosco leads the way with the youth

[@giezisinai6204]

I looooveeed it!! So funny interesting activity to do with my classmates and students!! Thank you for your video!

[@cherylpatel6677]

Mark - excellent. Just watching got me involved and I can pick on the finer nuances, which could be debriefed

[@tomleadbitter7165]

Great - thanks so much.

[@doublec3]

It’s really good there’s a mixture of youths and adults doing this together. It shouldn’t be just for one particular age group, even though it’s technically for youths.

[@playmeo-group-games]

Agreed. So much of what I present to groups is universally appealing. If you're looking for more ideas, go to www.playmeo.com/activities/

Thanks Mark, very interesting game. I will use it in my class today... 🤠

[@Choirs4Adults]

love watching their faces in the intro- they don't want to smile!

[@muzih.ngwenya9768]

I tried this the first time this past August..... It is so much fun, I practically use in all my training sessions.

[@playmeo-group-games]

Thanks so much for sharing Muzi - I'm so glad you enjoyed this fun game.

[@obliviondoug]

I like Meagan :)

[@victorhime9016]

great!

[@t1rrr0n]

What about a second round where everybody has to say the name of the person who is sitting to the right of them, and than a round and everybody has to say the name of the person to the left of them. Could be a fun way to learn the names of each other.

[@playmeo-group-games]

Yes, great idea. Never any shortage of fun variations to all of playmeo's group games. Thanks for sharing.

[@zairitateichert472]

How did it go?

[@AngelicTroubleMaker-LaVooDoo]

Round 1 First Name Round 2 =last name

[@rhondaevans-brown4390]

Awesome!

[@playmeo-group-games]

Thanks for commenting Rhonda - I hope you get the opportunity to try this out with a group very soon :-)

[@ryanbarretto-strengthsdeco5873]

What would be the best way to debrief this? Could it be linked to a particular topic eg. communication skills? I don't know so I'm asking.

[@playmeo-group-games]

How do I extract more value from an activity that just having fun is always a useful question, so thanks for asking Ryan. Yes, I would absolutely connect my debrief to a skill such as communication, but as a team-based event, I think it is ideally suited to inviting my group to reflect on their continuous improvement.

[@carolagulhafotografiacia3463]

Fantastic.

[@playmeo-group-games]

Thanks Carol, I'm so glad you enjoyed Name Impulse, it's a wonderful icebreaker and name game, isn't it?

[@alaaaboalrob8324]

what's the main purpose of this game? thanks for sharing :)

[@sharae8353]

LOL to put you to ZZZZZZzzzzz

[@playmeo-group-games]

Thanks for asking - the primary purpose of the game is to generate energy and have fun. But, in many cases, a few names will be learned during the course of the game.

[@natalyforerobermudez9459]

I guess you can use it as an ice breaker for classes :)

[@itsme5778]

I want someone to explain it to me.

[@silvioberlfein5194]

Hey. Mark,, have you done this. virtually yet ?

[@playmeo-group-games]

Yes, Silvio, I did it some months ago with good success. We started with establishing the alphabetic order of names and called them out in that order. We also tried the same thing by typing them in to the chat room - which proved funnier because of the mistakes people made when typing fast :-)

[@silvioberlfein5194]

@@playmeo-group-games Dont know if you knew that now if people have their zoom updated and you being the host in the gallery setting there is something like have everyone have the same gallery view as you.. (not sure if everyone needs to have the update, but you click on that and all of a sudden everyone sees the same screen is you which is great for many activities.. no need to establish the order.. and also you can play many other things.. using that especially body parts.. and creating sculptures..

[@playmeo-group-games]

@@silvioberlfein5194 Ah, no I did not know, but I bet it will require everyone to have updated their software to make that happen, but this is nice to know, thanks for sharing.

[@abdullahghareeb1100]

What’s the time object ?

[@playmeo-group-games]

Hi there, I'm not quite clear what your question is, but the whole point of the exercise is to have fun and generate some energy. And, if you happen to pick up some names, that's a bonus. The point of adding the timed dimension is to add a little interest to the exercise.

[@tarunsr9155]

K

[@rufustitus5463]

Would also be cool if they said the persons name on their right instead of their own

[@playmeo-group-games]

This would be a wonderful variation, thanks for suggesting.

[@supreetsidhu4535]

I wish the subtitles were on

[@playmeo-group-games]

Hi Supreet, there are subtitles as part of KZbin's captioning function, ie look for the subtitles option in the bottom toolbar.
