Easy to win this game, all you need is to throw all the sticks down so your opponents can’t catch them

[@joeelias2515]

Having keenly watched the game,I can tell that one of the very few down sides or flaws about the game is the fact that a player can decide to increase the chances of a person exiting the game by throwing or pushing the rod in a direction which makes it difficult to be caught or grasped by the player who takes over his spot whenever there's a shift in position,other than that,it's an interesting game.

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir ❤️

[@cactiguide]

I came to make that comment. I’m fact that’s exactly what the guy who won was doing. I’m guessing it is against the rules, so you have to make sure it looks accidental. Probably hard to catch on real life, but it’s pretty obvious in the video.

[@andrewb4326]

​@@cactiguidethe guy that lost in the end was doing that. A good handful of people that had to leave the game were behind him.

[@ieorlich]

The two finalists did that same cheating technique since the beginning. But the one who won the game, did it less obvious and opportunist than the other guy. But definitely both cheat. The game should be fixed some way to prevent this if they want a fair game that not depends of people's honestly culture.

[@brunocpimenta]

Ayooo.

[@vijaechambers151]

[@michaelmurray6197]

I think it would be more interesting to play it with an odd number of participants and have two people out each time someone drops a pole. Those people being the person that was supposed to catch it, and the other being the person that let go of it. That means that the people playing have to both worry about catching the pole they are moving to, while also trying to make sure their own pole is as straight as possible and gives the next person the best chance of catching it. Since it's an odd number of participants eventually you will end up with a final winner.

[@chasg76]

Cam here to make the same suggestion except for the odd number of players. Would have the final two both win.

[@chasg76]

Adding changes in direction might help as well.

@@Durttar695 Yup, i dig that - but i'm not sure the runner-up did (he seemed unhappy about the way the pole was left for him). Anyway, competition and collaboration are not diametrical opposites. And it would be TWO individual winners, not one, enhancing the collaborative element.

Any game where you need your opponent to do something correct so you don't lose is NOT a good game.

Now add this, long whistle means don't go (so people that react really fast might have a chance of getting out if they rush to the other stick) and a double whistle which means switch directions.

Love it! A wholesome game that tests endurance and agility with no physcial contact. This could be made more challenging by adding different sounds for different actions. Instead of just changing amount of whistles, a whistle sound can mean move clockwise, drum sound for moving counterclockwise, and maybe loud shout for standing still. I think using just whistle to signal different actions (1 whistle, 2, or 3) could cause a a simple game like this to be too chaotic. Thus, different sounds adds some challenge and keeps it safe and simple.

Very interesting game. Enjoyed watching it.

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir

[@Travieso8]

It’s interesting how we all seem to find a way to make it more competitive and/fair in some way. We can’t fathom the idea of having to rely on someone else not to screw you over.

[@anastasiaklyuch2746]

Optional additions: • have both the catcher and last owner of a fallen pole be disqualified • thus have odd number of players • Start with a small circle, then put the pole 1 foot further away each catch until someone leaves (then reset size) • Have a similar, but different whistle that means "stay", and those leaving their poles fail • Have music, where the signal is a start of a section every 2-4 seconds • carry a basket on your head that you also may not drop

[@peteypete9357]

​@@Danmansri I'd take that as a compliment then because he's actually suggested improvements to a game that favors screwing the person behind you rather than cooperating.

[@doreenpabarue3943]

Great game my pick won . Congrats!!

[@brianramirez4953]

It is almost always the fault of the stick holder previous to the person eliminated, not the person eliminated. But fortunately, at the end, the guy in blue won, because the other guy was over all the worst offender.

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir

[@Incognegrorn]

Would be cool to see multiple rings getting bigger to increase space and difficulty between levels. Cool game.

[@everettscott4745]

Loved every minute of this. I kind of knew that the guy at the end would win. He was lightning fast. But his competitor at the end was also very fast, and a good sport right at the very end.

[@jamesmomo2258]

I enjoyed this game. Worthy of the Olympics 😂😂😂😂

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir!

[@thecastiel69]

That's a lot of piss

[@StormRaid417]

It would be nice to have a community event like this in my town. We don't do much charity socially to have more communication so a thing like this would a life saver.

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you so much sir

[@robertmatthews2009]

How do they get the whole village to come out and participate when they could be home watching the View or the Kardashians?

[@seamusoflatcap]

Given the low value, to me in the UK, of the prize and the opportunity to cheat but lack if cheating, it seems the game is played as much for the fun as anything. Which is nice to see.

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir

[@veedjohnson]

There’ll probably be a rule to not try and sabotage the next person

[@seamusoflatcap]

@veedjohnson9551 I'm sure there are, but it seems there's a good level of sportsmanship.

[@lindaandrews2351]

Cooking oil very expensive rupee in India and Nepal. Brilliant prize

[@katarzynaxx563]

You are wrong. The “winner” was cheating all the time. He was sabotaging the next person by making the stick falls quicker.

[@paulinaadkins3593]

Great game. I got dizzy Close to the end. Nice. I'll have to try it. 😂

I was thinking same

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir

[@porotonegro]

This turned out to be extremely satisfying. The game itself is simple, but very entertaining. I've recently been to Morocco, and in the square, at night, people play all sort of ingenious games like this, which is absolutely brilliant to see. I'd like to know where this is (I think I heard Pakistan at some point)

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir ❤️

[@SameenIslam]

It’s in Bangladesh

[@theire483]

As kids we played a game simular to this...only we had stationery poles. We started with more people than poles though. You had to run to a pole, sort of like musical chairs w/o the chairs. We called it switch.

[@TruthArrows]

Great to see Traditional games being played and enjoyed.

[@emoses]

At least they gave cold drink to all the participants

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir

[@bcbgw]

Cold ? Are tou sure ?

[@noellealissa2206]

That's a really cool game and they do this for charity! Bravo!🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

[@000-z8n]

I really enjoyed that, and it was great to see this whole group of people into it. I can tell you, sadly, that if this were played in the U.S., you'd have to have minutely-specified rules about stick placement and everything else. Players would give their sticks a little nudge as they let go to decrease the odds of the other person catching it. You'd have to have instant replay, referees, and, of course, special shoes.

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir ❤️

[@aleenaprasannan2146]

That's why the reward is just cooking, so that people wouldn't take it too seriously and see the game as just something fun.

[@Danmansri]

Individualism verses collective mindset with village accountability measures.

[@trevors3450]

Wrong. We’d never play this stupid ass game in America

[@Kotifilosofi]

The guy that came second always let the stick fall while the guy who won left the stick very balanced standing straight, so it was easier for the another person to catch. He deserved winning.

[@ujayet]

The fact you can cheat by pushing the stick away just before leaving is the only flaw I think the game have other than that.. it’s an awesome game.

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir ❤️

[@elisaa9981]

Really funny game! I hope that girls and women are allowed to play, too.

[@TheBassPanda]

Add the following rule: if the guy behind you fails to grab the stick, you are both out.

[@80PercentAshamedOfU]

I love how it’s a combo of balance, speed, and stamina. Balance because I assume tipping the stick in any direction would be considered cheating and a forfeit. Speed because obviously you have to get to the next stick. And stamina because that whistle guy gives you ZERO time to catch your breath lol.

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir ❤️

[@DrRodox.]

I watched the WHOLE time the guy who got second place. He DIDNT play fair. Always bringing the stick with him making it hard to the person behind him. And surprise surprise, the one that didnt play fair was the only one clompaining after losing.

[@mr_z4n125]

Ooh, I remember we did something similar back in my kendo days with our shinais!

[@matthewdaniel1715]

The duration of the stick before it falls to the ground depends on the force exerted and how erect the stick was before tuning to the next. I can see that some players failed because of this 😢, although this game can be improved.

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir

[@Chainsnsprockets402]

The first thing I thought of when watching this. The release of the stick can adversely affect the opponent’s ability to catch it. Otherwise a cool game!

[@denverzorrozoki9023]

Just stick with it. 😅

[@sudiptadas7397]

The person who won left the stick falling down so the opponent couldn't catch it. But the opponent left the stick well..

[@ALocalGame]

Thank you sir

[@INJILIyaUTUKUFU]

Yes, *a very good observation* that many others FAILED to see, and hence APPLAUD THE FAKE WINNER

[@Gnuh-----ou5hb]

It is not a fair game

[@vrizkvrizk3401]

I already notice him did that on purpose few times when there's still many players

[@ninjafruitchilled]

Yes that seemed to me the main flaw in the game, what is the incentive to leave the stick balancing for the next person, rather than just throw it down? Even if that is against the rules or something there is still clearly a lot of room to make things unfairly harder for the person behind you. I feel like it should be a joint effort, i.e. if the guy behind you doesn't catch it then you're out too!
