Each player wears a uniquely colored clip in such a way so everyone can see its color, which represents them throughout the game. Players start the game with a voting box into which a question card has been inserted.
Questions generally describe a scenario and ask which players best fit that scenario.
Players silently read the questions on their boxes and cast two votes for the players to which they think the question most applies. Votes are cast by dropping colored cards, matching the clips worn by the players, into the voting box. Each player must always cast two votes, but they can both be for the same player, including himself. When all players have voted on their questions, everyone passes their voting boxes to the left and votes on the question in the box they receive. Once all players have voted on all questions and voting boxes have returned to their original holders, the second phase begins.
