2. Each group is split into 2 teams.
3. The clue giver will start a 1 minute timer and turn over a card so nobody can see. (colors don' matter)
4. The clue giver now says words (not sounds or gestures) to get their team to guess the word at the top of the card.
5. The clue giver cannot say any of the words (or forms of the words) listed on the card. Formations include: abbreviations, tenses (past, present, future), initials, spelling, letters, sounds like, rhyming, smaller version words, compound words.

6. Teammates can guess as many words as possible before the timer runs out.
7. The clue giver may pass on a word and place it in a discard pile.
8. If the clue giver uses an illegal word, the opposing team who is monitoring, can sound a buzzer or shout the word "AVID." Then the clue giver must place the card in the discard pile and try a new word.
9. When the timer is done the team will count up how many points earned based off of how many words were guessed correctly. The opposing team gets one point for each card placed in the discard pile.
10 Switch teams and repeat. The team with the highest points, wins!
