Can You Predict the Trends of Your Friends? Here’s a party game that tests your ability to stay with The Mainstream. Players use their voting wheels to register secret votes on poll questions. The object is to select the most popular choice and stay in The Mainstream. After revealing their answers, players who are not in The Mainstream get a strike. First player to register 5 strikes on his or her scoring wheel pays a penalty for being Passé. The group chooses a penalty before play begins, such as clucking like a chicken or singing “I Write the Songs” by Barry Manilow.)
