Meeting energizers for distributed teams: Alternative facts

The team makes use of some video conferencing technology. All team members sit in front of the camera so everybody can see each other. The facilitator makes sure there is a flip-over or a whiteboard available to keep track of the score.
One team member tells something about himself/herself, which could be either the truth or a lie. After telling this (alternative) fact, the rest of the team individually has to decide whether what was said is actually the truth. Each team member does this by thumb-voting; thumb up means it's the truth, thumb down means it's a lie. After all team members decided the one team member reveals the truth about the fact. Scores are being updated on the flip-over or whiteboard.
Every team member gets it's turn, with one or more winners at the end of the game.
