BuzzOut
Played with groups divided into teams, this game uses buzzer devices and
technology much like the device used in the game Buzzword.
A moderator reads sentences to both teams. When a team hears incorrect shifts in
pronoun, the team should buzz to stop the speaker from speaking. A certain
number of points are gained for buzzing-in AND being correct about the pronoun
shift, with bonus points added for giving the proper pronoun that should have been
used.
After a predetermined number of rounds, the team with the most points wins.
