The fourth game was "Party," a game where one member has to guess personality types that the other members are acting out for them.
The fifth game was "Story, Story, Die." In this game, the audience chooses when a member of the game was no longer interesting at which point that improviser would die and leave.
The sixth game played was "Super Hero Eulogy." During this game each member of the team must eulogize a hypothetical super hero.
The last round only included the two teams with the highest scores at the end of the third round. The teams that participated in the last round were "The Mean Green Peas" and "Red Hotz."
The game played during the last round was "Gibberish Chain Murderers," a game that resembles the child's game of telephone. Each character having to figure out what another team member is explaining to them using only actions and gibberish and then portray that to the next team member.
Three judges distributed points based on categories such as technical merit, artistic merit and audience response.
The "Red Hotz" won the competition and were awarded SBU Christmas ornaments for prizes.
The Theatre Department hopes to make the night of improve theatre an annual Homecoming event.
