Chinese whispers

Game. So the game has a name: where teams competing by passing a message verbally from one teammate to another until the last teammate and see if the last member can recite the same message in accuracy.

I have made mention of this game several times to illustrate how sacred text are carefully passed and how people tend to be misled, whether it be intentional or unintentional.

As I brought up in a lesson on Islam on last Sunday's youth group, I was told by one student that it's called telephone (more commonly known in the U.S.), which is another name of the game this Chinese Whispers.
