Following are a few nice stories and curiosity which best show the spirit of the Poc 9 event, particularly referring to the game of the new identity.
Many new friendship were born among people from all over the world. More than one delegate said: “ This is a great idea!”.
Someone came to Poc 9 desk willing to participate even when the game was over; an American delegate went and informed his collegues about this original initiative. An Indonesian delegate explained that it is an efficient mechanism that really helps people to socialize, which is very important. Another one, who supported the idea, said: “ To make an utopia come true, you have to start from somewhere!”.
Some of the alliances created were peculiar, like the one between Violet from Kenya who met Pasha, a lady representing the Cook Islands and born in Kenya. What a surprise !
The alliance between Italy and Korea seemed like an exciting football match (which was possible thanks to the absence of the Uruguayan referee Moreno).
USA-Nicaragua and USA-Indonesia were the most unexpected alliances.
