português term

castigo

português para inglês Outra Jogos/vídeo games/apostas/cassino festas
In Brazil, when they have "secret santa" ("amigo secreto"), when someone doesn't know who got their name, then they have to "pagar castigo" (do some kind of challenge as a "punishment" for not finding out who drew their name). How would we say that in English? Thank you for your help!

neutral Marlene Curtis : No daring involved. It's kind of a game. You pay a penalty by telling a joke about yourself or a story if you fail to guess the name.
