How to run it
Stand in a circle, close enough to reach the next man. Two soft things each.
The call
- The caller shouts one of three: DROP, SWAP or HOLD.
- DROP — let go of one and catch it before it lands.
- SWAP — pass one to the man on your left and catch the one coming from your right.
- HOLD — do nothing at all. Most people do something.
Worth knowing
- Anything on the floor is a point against you, and picking it up does not undo it.
- The caller speeds up. That is the entire skill of being the caller.
- Nothing hard, nothing breakable, nothing anybody has to bend for.
What you need
- Rolled socks — No shortage of those

Fayla builds the whole weekend around it — a scoreboard everybody can see, a shopping list that writes itself out of the things you picked, and one link for the group chat.
