It’s Day 3 of Clash of the Halls, meaning it’s time for an incredibly anticipated event: Game Show! This event brought students together for a night of energy and intense competition, all held in the auditorium. This year’s Clash schedule looks a little different than expected due to weather difficulties that shifted events around, but still the show prevails. Typically, Wednesday is a rest day, but with the adjustments, it became Game Show Day. The final event, Pep Rally and Drill, will now be held on Thursday instead of Friday.

With no themed games this year and only six games instead of seven, each hall had to bring new strategies to the table. Here’s how it all went down!

Game 1: Guess That Quote
The opening round saw halls rolling dice to determine who would step up to complete a famous quote or guess who said it. Multiple halls clinched victories here, making it an exciting start to the night.

Game 2: Pose, Baby, Pose!
This high-energy game similar to musical chairs had players scrambling to mats when the music stopped, then recreating poses displayed on the screen. 01 took the win, with 07 close behind in second place.

Game 3: Guess Who?
In this fast-paced game, players had five seconds to guess which CAB member matched a specific fact. Points varied, with many of the answers being surprises to both competitors on stage and in the audience.

Game 4: Decrypt That Code
This game was more traditionally intellect-based, challenging halls to crack a code before the others. 01 proved themselves here, earning yet another first-place win.

Game 5: Tic to the Tac to the Toe
A bracket-style relay featuring hula hoops and tic-tac-toe kept the audience members interested and the students on stage competitive. With two halls of three students competing at a time, players hopped through hoops before tossing beanbags on a board to try for three in a row. 05 emerged victorious, with 07 taking second.

Game 6: Blindfolded Art
The final game of the day combined creativity with chaos as blindfolded artists attempted to replicate an image of a camera while their teammates gave instructions. 02 earned first place, followed by 06 and 05.

Though the scores for today’s games won’t be released until tomorrow due to varying point weightings, the anticipation is building. Here’s a reminder of the leaderboard and day two’s point rankings:

Riddle (Tuesday):
1st – 1504
2nd: 1503 + 1507
4th – 1505
5th – 1502
6th – 1501
7th – 1506

3rd – 1501

With only Pep Rally and Drill left on the schedule, every hall is ready to make one final push for victory. Pep Rally promises to bring even more spirit and excitement, with each hall ready to compete. Will 1503 hold onto their lead, or will another hall rise to claim the title?
