Can someone help me find an AskMeFi post?

Can someone help me find an AskMeFi post? I've spent ages searching and scouring the tags but can't find it. It may have been a year ago or so (not sure of exact date) but the question was about exercises for helping people get to know each other in a big new group - the context may have been a work conference. AskMeFi users suggested a lot of different techniques that a group organiser could employ to get strangers going together. Also if anyone could give advice on how best to find a tricky old post like this in future, please go right ahead.

Was it this one? I got that from a search for "group games"

Or this? (which was the first hit on a search for "exercises for helping people get to know each other in a big new group")

I can't help but appreciate the way how this MeTa question is reading like one of those "Help me find xyz" AskMe questions that show up from time to time on the green.

What would really make the whole thing complete would be another MeTa question a year or so from now that reads "Can someone help me find a MeTa post? I've spent ages searching and scouring the tags but can't find it. It may have been a year ago or so (not sure of exact date) but the thread was about looking for an AskMe post about exercises for helping people get to know each other in a big new group - the context may have been a work conference."

I second Rhomboids suggestion.

Icebreaker gave me the same result as Rhomboid.

I've added some tags now to my question, if that's the one you were seeking. I should go back and add more useful tags to some of my other questions! Thanks for the reminder.
