    Default is it pompyang? or kompyang?



    does anybody know what this game is called?

    it's a process of elimination game we used to play as kids. all hands in the center, then everybody flips their hands all at the same time after saying "maalis alis". whoever follows the leader is in. the rest are kicked out.

    i call it kompyang. others i know call it pompyang. i can't seem to find any information on this anywhere.

    anyone? anyone? beuller?

    Strange, first time I heard of the Pompyang name. As far as I remember, we called it "Oddball". :s
