Drinking Game

Reading the most recent strip reminds me of the Penny Arcade drinking game we played a couple of times. Searching for it on the internets, I found nothing!

I did find this; you could substitute these for beer and bourbon in the game below:
http://www.imjustdrinking.com/wiki/index.php?title=Penny_Arcade

You will need:
at least 4 very, very nerdy people
a laptop
a bar where you can use your laptop

We first happened on this by accident because one of our laptops had a huge cache of penny arcade strips; we had given up on whatever work we'd thought we were going to do. In a bar. It seemed sensible at the time.

You divide into two teams, "team Tycho" and "team Continuity."

So, you display a strip. If "team Tycho" can find a way that it breaks continuity with a previous strip, Tycho gets a point, and everyone on team Continuity has to chug a beer. Yes, every time Tycho dies, it counts, but only once (the following strip).

If anyone on "team Continuity" can find a previous strip with which this strip maintains some continuity, and it doesn't break continuity in any way (unless those continuity breaks have already resulted in beers), Continuity gets 2 points, and everyone on team Tycho has to take a shot of bourbon.

If:
- The strip challenges what we really mean about meaning, man
or
- The strip reconceives fundamental concepts of space and placement,
Scott McCloud gets 10 points and everyone takes 50 mg of, well if you don't know, don't take any.

The losing team pays for drinks - if Scott McCloud wins, you start a fight and wreck the bar; micropayments will take care of it.

    A better drinking game is to watch all the LOTR: EE and take a drink everytime a Tolkien location is mentioned.

    Gondor DRINK

    Rohan DRINK

    Minas Morgul DRINK

    Oh this should be good.

    It's hard to explain, or maybe I'm just retarded, but anyway:

    Let's say you have six people at a table. It starts out with the first person saying "gyuu" then the next person says "tan" (extend the 'a', it's not 'tan' as in a suntan). Then the third will say "gyuu" and the fourth will say "tan" again. It goes on like that.

    When it gets around to the first person, he says "gyuu" again, but the second person says "gyuu" again instead of saying tan. So basically, the "gyuu"'s increase every time the circle goes around once. If someone, say the third person, fucks up and doesn't realize it's the third time around and says "tan" instead of "gyuu", he has to take his shot.

    Does that make any sense?

    drinking games are for when you're sober.

    not for when you're already drunk.

    How do you play?

    deck of cards, arranged in circles getting bigger and bigger, with each value being worth something.

    i've played a couple of different versions, but here's what wikipedia has to say. i prefer just guessing what color the card is, and if you get it right, you pick somebody else to drink, and if you get it wrong you drink. but you also have that other shit like rhyme time and waterfall and all that.

    oh yeah. We've played that, but it had nothing to do with circles. Each card gets a value/game associated with it. Cards are splayed out all haphazard on the table. People pick cards in turn, do what the card is associated with. Some cards are "rule" cards where you can make up any rule you want, whatsoever. Mine usually border on sexual harrassment, but that's why it's a drinking game.

    My friends and I play two drinking games:

    1) Edward Fortyhands: You take to forties of your choice, and duct tape them to your hands. You can't take them off until you finish it. The trick is to pound the first one so you can pee, and then sip on the other one throughout the night.

    2) Drunk Before Noon: Self explanatory, really. I've shown up ready to play at 8:00 and everyone is already trashed. Or still wasted from the night before.

    Because it adds another level of recreation to the process of becoming inebriated.

    The trick is just to fucking cowboy up and do 'em both in the first 30 minutes, then find the good beer.

    You go ahead and drink two forties in thirty minutes and see what happens. I'll sit over here and make pithy comments.

    Right hand rule is what we play, if anyone touches a drink with there right hand they have to down it, also then they get to make up a new rule which is in play until someone else falls for either right hand rule or new rule. New rule can be anything, last to touch the table or whatever you want, last to get naked or whatever.
