Topic: Drinking Games Posted: 09 Aug 04 at 5:07pm |
The best game for all day / all night / pub crawl drinking is the Alphabet game: The first drink you buy has to start with the letter 'A' e.g. Archers, Alloa. Every time you buy a new drink it has to start with the next letter of the alphabet. It is completely compatible with all other drinking games, and adds variety to the evening. I don't recomend the 'reverse alphabet' version. Imagine starting the evening with a Zombie. |

Courtsey of Newcastle Uni and Phil International Drinking Rules
(Or, if you’re playing them, some regulations for the ordered consumption of alcoholic beverages while situated in international waters[1])
Prohibited behaviour
1) No using the word “drink” (henceforth referred to as – among other things – “d”) or derivatives thereof (e.g. “drinking”, “drinker”, “drunk”, “drinks”, “drank”, etc.). 3) No pointing with a finger or fingers[2]. 4) No calling fellow players by their names (neither forenames nor surnames). 5) Right-handed imbibing[3] at the top of the hour (i.e. between quarter-to and quarter-past every hour) is prohibited. 7) Failing to use posh pinkie at the top of the hour (see above) while imbibing is prohibited. 8) Using posh pinkie at the bottom of the hour (see above). 9) No swearing. 10) No leaving the table without requesting permission. 11) No (re)joining the table without requesting permission. 12) No placing an empty beverage container or containers on a table (under any circumstances[4]) without saying “e.g.” (for empty glass). 13) No being last to respond appropriately to thumb master. 14) No accepting physical objects of any kind at any time (e.g. if player 1 hands an object to player 2, player 2 is liable to be penalised. On being offered the object, player 2 should have asked player 1 to place it on the table, before picking it up). [1] This difference occurs because you can’t say a derivative of the word “drink” (see regulation 1) or a derivative of the word “rule” (see regulation 2). In the full version, you can’t use any kinds of proper nouns, and technically the title of the game is a proper noun, but these regulations have been slightly modified for simplicity. Whether the modified name of the game (i.e. without the words “drinking” and “rules”) counts as a proper noun is a subject of continuing debate. [2] i.e. elbows, noses, etc. are acceptable. If a player is counting on his/her fingers or imbibing with posh pinkie, there is some controversy over whether that constitutes pointing at the ceiling. In practice, judgements on this matter will depend on a) the whim of the assembled players and b) how inebriated everyone is. [3] For the purposes of this regulation, imbibing is defined as holding a receptacle containing alcoholic beverage while said receptacle is in contact with the same player’s lips. [4] This includes, for example, if a player picks up an already empty container, and places it down without imbibing from it. |

best game for starting the evening is "International Rules" to be played during a meal (or around a large table in a bar) and can incorperate just about any other drinking game including fuzzy duck and 21's. The added rules mean that everyone has pleanty of opotunities to make mistakes and drink lots.

We have a much more complicated way of playing Centurion in our house.
Very messy but a lot of fun before you go out!! |

My favourite one was probably Behind Sallys Green Glass Door, also one up one down. Both games guarenteed to confuse any new comers to the club!

fuzzy duck is always guaranteed to get you really drunk! Best played with tequila, or other evil spirit though.... |

Centurion:
Each pint of beer contains 8 'fingers' Drink one 'finger' every minute No pissing or vomiting stops, if you miss a minute you are out. Takes 12 1/2 pints If you 'survive' you get a T shirt to prove it! |

A couple of old favourites:
They all bring back memories (or a lack of them), I'll leave someone else to explain the rules for each! |

Ouch! Ok- my reputation is intact- we called it century but it's the same game. I think my favourite is 'I have never...' especially when I have to explain ' Dan, you only think IF you did it' and he replys ' but I did...' to just about every 'I have never' - good times. |

If its the one i'm thinking of...........
you know the little black cases photographic film comes in? Well, one of those with beer in every minute for 100 minutes. sounds easy? works out as about seven pints or so in an hour and forty minutes - and no going to the bog, either! |
