🚪 Line Up

How it plays

• There is one numbered spot for every person in the room, and the door is waiting for one particular order that nobody knows. Walk to a spot and press the button to claim it -- the button says what it will do wherever you are standing, so it reads CLAIM on a free spot, LEAVE on your own and LOCK at the lever.
• When every spot is taken somebody holds the lever, and the board above the door answers with a single number: how many of you are in the wrong place. That is the only thing you are ever told, and it moves only when the lever is pulled, so the answer comes from comparing one attempt with the last, out loud. Get it to zero and the door opens for everybody.

Rules

• How it runs. One numbered spot per player, never more and never fewer: three of you is three spots, eight of you is eight. The stick walks you around the room and nothing else -- there is no running and no timing anywhere in here, so a slow phone never costs anybody the round.
• Scoring. The one button changes with where you stand, and the phone always writes the word on it. CLAIM takes a free spot, LEAVE gives yours up, and holding LOCK at the lever asks the door. The board answers with how many of you are standing wrong, keeps the previous answer beside it, and marks every spot that changed since.
• Winning. The number moves only when the lever is pulled, so it can never be read off by shuffling about -- the only way through is to say out loud what you changed and what it did. Reach zero and the door opens for the whole room; run out of clock and it stays shut for all of you.
