  Musical Chairs
Musical Chairs is a game played by a group of people, often in an informal setting purely for entertainment.
The game starts with N players and a set of N-1 chairs[?]; the chairs are arranged in a circle (or other closed figure if space is constrained; a double line is sometimes used) facing outward, with the people standing in a circle just outside of that.
The player who is left without a chair is eliminated from the game, and one chair is also removed to ensure that there will always be one fewer chair than there are players.
