Ten to One
Three rounds. By the last one nobody is saying a number at all.
A countdown that loses its numbers a round at a time. First the room counts ten to one out loud. Then every odd number becomes a shouted YEAH. Then every even number becomes a clap — and by the third round the room is going clap, YEAH, clap, YEAH with no numbers left in it. The laugh is always the same: somewhere around round three half the room starts saying the word “clap” out loud instead of clapping, and that is exactly where you stop.
A big room needs one loud thing it does together — opening a day, coming back from a break, or sending everyone off at the end.
