1. Everyone sits on the floor in a circle. One person is selected to be "it" and leaves the room.
2. The players remaining in the room choose a rule to use while answering questions. The rule can be hard or simple depending on those playing. For example
* All boys make up stories.
All girls tell the truth.
* Players must scratch their heads or yawn before answering.
* Each answer must begin with the letter of the alphabet following the letter
with which the previous answer began.
3. When the person who is "it" comes back into the room, her or she asks the other students questions about themselves. The person trying to guess the rule is allowed to take as long as he or she needs. If it takes too long, players can help by exaggerating the response the rule calls for.
