It starts with a room full of people, the more the merrier. The object is to ask a question when it is your turn, but this is much more difficult than it seems. The rules are:

1. Obviously, the infraction of any rule is punishable by a drink.
2. You can only ask one person one question at a time.
   1. The person who asks the question must address the person queried by name; no pointing. (newcomers to a crowd are allowed some leeway until they learn names.)
   2. The questions must be answerable by "yes" or "no". (This rule is optional, but be certain beforehand if it will be observed.)
3. The person asked the question must immediately ask another person
   1. Any hesitation, answering the question, laughing, or doing anything else besides asking somebody else a question is punishable by a drink.
   2. Asking a question back at the person who asked is punishable by a drink.
   3. Any question can be asked only once. Simply rephrasing somebody else’s question is a cheat. A person who repeats a question must take a drink.

Other notes:

If the crowd cracks up (after, for example, a spectacularly personal question), a "Team Drink" is called.

The best way to play is to keep a question or two rolling around in your head, to be spewed out after you are asked a question. Good questions are the innocent sounding ones: "Has the game started yet?" "Is it past midnight?" "Is that button on your shirt undone?"

The other best way to play is to get personal (the game usually descends to this level fairly quickly): "Do you often pick your nose like that?" "Do you masturbate often?" "Are your breasts really 36DD?" "Does your girlfriend arch when you make love?"

You can see the game demonstrated (after a fashion) in the tennis court scene in Rosencrantz and Guilderstern Are Dead.

NOTE: +# represents how many additional drinks should be added to the original number.
Example: If the Wings score and it’s Fedorov from Yzerman: 1+2+2=5 drinks.

Obviously, it is possible to avoid a 50% possibility of performing an "activity" by simply continuing to pass… but this also means you drink *every* time. Eventually, you might decide to risk it.

Now if you are the chaser… you are more or less at the mercy of the runner.

Each turn is for only one question, and the runner and chaser position each rotates one person clockwise each turn. Everyone gets to play.

Each player will need a glass of beer. Float an extra glass in the pitcher of beer (adding some beer to the glass may be needed for stability). Each player takes turns pouring beer into the floating glass. After a five second wait, the next player then pours into glass. Whoever causes the glass to sink must retrieve it and drink its contents. The object is to leave the glass just short of sinking and leave the care upto the next player.

Play the game. If you successfully move a block according to the rules, you may command another player to drink. However, if you cause the tower to topple, you must drink an entire beer.

Varition

Write different phrases on the bottom of the pieces, like "Drink (#)", "Kiss the person on your right/left", "Remove an article of clothing", "Go again", "Make sex noise", "Make a rule", etc. Play the game, and whoever removes the piece has to do what it says. The person who makes the tower topple has to finish their beer and drink another.

Add to and adjust as needed.

Punch a hole near the bottom of the can, on the side. BE CAREFUL: that can is now dangerous with sharp edges possibly exposed. Put your mouth over the hole, lift your head upo with the can while opening the can. Drink fast. The first person to finish is the “winner.”

The game starts by picking the person who will be the first Master Of The Thumb. While sitting around the table having a good time, the Master Of The Thumb can, at any time s/he chooses, non-chalantly place her thumb on the edge of the table. After she has started this, anyone who notices must follow example. The last person to place his/her thumb on the table loses and has to drink, but they do become the new Master Of The Thumb. If anyone places their thumb on the table without the real Master Of The Thumb starting it, they have to drink.

The person who knows all the phrases begins, one phrase a time. The game follows the same routine as the Twelve Days of Christmas. So, the sixth person in the circle would have to repeat the sixth phrase, as well as the previous five.

If you mess up a phrase you drink the number of phrases you had to complete, and then start over at the first phrase. This continues until the game is completed, saying all ten without screwing up.

The phrases are:

1. Big Chicken
2. Cute Ducks
3. Brown Bears
4. Hairy Running Hares
5. Fat Females Sitting, Sipping scotch, and smoking cigarettes
6. Sheets Slit by Sam the Sheet Slitter
7. Sexy Siamese Sailors sailing the seven seas
8. Echoing egotists echoing egotistical ecstasies
9. Naughty Knocked up Nuns navigating the nigerian desert towards the nunnery
10. fig pluckers plucking figs, I’m not a fig plucker or a fig pluckers son but I’ll pluck figs until the fig plucking’s done!

Game Rules:

Lay out all the cards across the table. First person takes a card and the game is on.

Ace = Do it

The person drawing an ace gives a Task to any other player. Must be something that can be done in the room you are playing in. Person has to at least try to do the Task. If the Task is completed the Task Giver does the drink, If not completed the Victim does the drink. If the Task is not completed 1 other person can attempt it. If they can do it, both the Task Giver and the Victim drink. If not completed, the Victim and the Second Person both drink.

Optional: Can roll a die to determine how many drinks the Victim is playing for. This is called incentive!
