how to put Ss in pairs?

Hi,
I'm teaching 6 adults and I've recently run out of ways of putting them into pairs. Can somebody help me with that one?

It seems to me that there are only 5 ways to simultaneously pair 6 people; after that, you'll need to repeat the matches; there is no mathematical escape from this.

Yes, but you missed the point. I asked HOW to put them into pairs, like last time everyone got a piece of paper with either a comparative or a superlative form of an adjective, they had to find each other: if one had 'sadder', then had to find someone who had 'the saddest' and the other way round..
