performance game: Go for the Silver! by Rick Rubenstein (Rubrick): 9 "countries" competed in a series of silly events, each with 3 heats and a final, in which competitors tried to get second place. Examples included writing down items in a category, solving absurdly simple math problems with eyes closed and holding up fingers representing the answer, and paper wad tossing for distance.

Oldies but goodies: we had to violate an ancient Equinox taboo against re-using games because the expected megagame didn't materialize.

performance game: Mirror Charades, by Rick Rubenstein (Rubrick): Like normal charades, except charader 1, who knows the answer, stands behind the guessers, while charader 2, who doesn't know the answer, stands in front and mirrors charader 1.
