Three to seven players, and as the name says, one actor is surplus — one player has to be excluded from the group. Naturally everyone wants to belong and not be the one left out, so each plays to avoid exclusion while trying to get somebody else excluded.
Hold with care
- Players actively work to get each other excluded, which is a different and harder thing than the site's Exclusion scene, where the group quietly agrees who is being excluded
- The dynamic is exactly the one a group with existing cliques will reproduce rather than play, and the source gives no condition on when to run it
- Needs the same rotation Exclusion insists on and a debrief afterwards; neither is in the page
