6. After Round 1 (scissors).

Now this is a funny one, you don't dare it if you don't have the stomach for it, its a game very similar to the intenationally know sciccors, a group of players are expected to pick a number and then each will signify a number with the fingers of one hand and all fingers would be counted to arrive at a number if the number actualised was choosed by any of the players then that player wins, e.g lets say there are five players and each choose from number 1-5 respectively, and then all droped a finger each, the player that choosed 5 wins, this continues until the last player is left without an opponent, which means he/she is the looser, the other players then procced to beating or hitting the back of the loosers palm until the looser could weave all their hands from hitting him/her.

The starting song goes thus: After round one, original panadol extra won tun gbe de.

God, if e don reach my turn to get spanked, I run.. .. .. Lol

4. Suwe.

Honestly i don't know the origin of this game, if its either African or foreign but i know its known worldwide.

The game start by drawing a big rectangle on the floor, then divide it into smaller rectangles or boxes, ranging from 6-12 boxes, with equal amount of boxes on two parts/sides, the left and the right part/sides.

Now there could either be just two players or groups of two team players.

The game goes thus; each of the participants is to first have a seed, which could be created from anything, mostly from plastic or woods. Now they are to trow the seeds to each box according to the number, each box is numbered from 1 to the last number of boxes, that is; let say six boxes on each side/part, now the numbers would be from 1-6 on each side.

After which the players are expected to jump over each boxes as the game proceeds, now this means a participant must jump over box named number 1, then hop on one leg over the next boxes, avoiding the demarcating lines, which if steped upon disqualifies the person or team, now participants are expected to keep on jumping over the boxes as the numbers proceeds, that is after hopping in on other boxes and its time to go on the second round, participants are expected to jump over 2 boxes, box number 1&2 at once and it continues as such, but at the end of each round, players are to back the big rectangle and trow the seed behind them, if it lands on the number they just hopped over then the box becomes theirs, that is they have bought the space and it would be called their house, they also have the right to name it to whatever they like but the seed must fall only on the side in which they hopped, this house is a save haven when jumping/hopping over the boxes, a player could do whatever they like on this box as its theirs, they are allowed to rest their legs, dance, jump, you name it but should never cross the lines of the box they've bought or would be disqualified.

Is the name "Suwe"? We used to call it "Sway" when I was a little boy
