Ok, some of you may or may not have had experience with these games that we play in college... usually involving some alcoholic beverage. Well, my friends and I had our favorite games that we used to do... whether we got drunk or not... haha One of my favorites to play was called "Circle of Death" although we generally played out without the cup in the center as we all drank different things and the combination of them could be quite disgusting at times... haha. This is how me and my friends played it (generally) but there are many variations out there.

So,below are the rules etc. for Circle of Death:

A standard deck of 52 cards is arranged face down in a circle on a table. You take turns, going clockwise with each player turning over 1 card at a time... depending on what the face value of the card is... you have to do certain things. Below are the face values of the cards.

2 is You; pick someone else to drink once.

3 is Me; the person who turns the card over drinks once.

4 to the Floor; last person to touch the ground has to take a drink.

5 is Guys; every guy playing has to take a drink.

6 is Chicks; every girl playing has to take a drink.

7 to Heaven; last player to point up has to take a drink.

8 is Hate or Mate; pass out 8 drinks to whoever you like. spread it out or give it all to one person. (not yourself)

9 is Rhyme; the player who turned the card over says a word and you go in a circle rhyming it. ex: mad.. sad.. bad.. had. Whoever missies, hesitates, laughs, etc. takes a drink.

10 is Categories; the player who turned the card over picks anything and go around naming items in that category. ex: "condoms".. trojan, durex, lifestyle the purple kind. whoever misses or hesitates takes a drink.

Jack is Gestures; The player who has drawn the jack is now the Gesture Master. He or she creates a simple gesture that all players must mimic whenever it is made by the Gesture Master. The last player to follow suit and mimic the gesture must drink. The player remains Gesture Master until another player draws a jack, at which point he or she becomes Gesture Master and creates a new gesture. Popular gestures include placing one's thumb on the edge of the table or crossing one's arms. The position of Gesture Master can also be referred to as Thumb Master, in which case placing one's thumb on the edge of the table is the only acceptable gesture.

Queen is Questions; the player who drew the card looks at someone else and asks a question and they turn and ask someone else. whoever laughs or doesn't talk in questions drinks.... questions only.

King is The Cup; if you play with the cup in the center, the first 3 players to draw a King pour as much of their dirnk into the cup int he center as they wish... the foruth person to draw a King is the lucky individual who has to drink it. My friends and I never played with the cup, so we would always make up our own rule for it.... our favorite was whenever you got a King, you had to call up one of you friends, sing them a song, and then hang up... you weren't allowed to say anything else. The game of "Never Have I Ever" can also be substituted here.

Ace is Waterfall; every player stands up and starts to drink at the same time. The player who turned the card over gets to control the length (you go clockwise). Once the first player stops, then the next one can stop, then the next, etc.... Sucks to be the person to the left of whoever gets an ace.

================================================== ==

So, tell me... how much trouble can you get into with a Jenga game (http://www.hasbro.com/jenga/) and a good ink pen? Well, lots if you have friends like mine. Jenga is a game where you make a tower out of blocks, 3 blocks to a level. Players take turns pulling out a block from the lower layers and restacking it on top.... Innocent enough... except when your friends have written on the blocks "Take a Shot" ; "Kiss to the Left" ; "Hug to Right" ; etc..... Yea, needless to say it got interesting.

================================================== ==

Another game my friends and I would play pretty often was called "A$$hole". This wasn't my favorite game to play but it was fun.... It requires a minimum of 4 players.

• Positions: President, vice president, secretary, vice secretary, vice asshole, asshole (more positions can be made up if needed). The rank above is in order of power. The president can make anyone drink; the vice president can make everyone below him drink etc.
• All cards are dealt face down out by the asshole (starting with himself and then in the direction ascending in rank. This makes a difference with 5+ people because the president should end up with the least cards.)
• While dealing asshole has supreme power to make anyone drink (which ends as soon as last card is dealt out)
• President receives 2 best cards from the asshole (and gives 2 worst cards to the asshole)
• Vice President receives best 1 card from vice asshole (and gives worst card to vice asshole)
• If either vice asshole or asshole fail to give their best card(s), results in automatic asshole status for next round
• President lays the first card and playing order goes by rank
• Cards are played in ascending order with 3 as the lowest card
• It must be decided by the members playing whether or not doubles or triples must be played separately. For example if double can be played on singles or if triples can be played on singles or doubles (i.e. if you can play two 5’s on one Ace). The game can be played either way, but is simplest when doubles can be played on singles etc.
• 2’s clear the pile but can only be played on top of another card (you can not clear nothing) and can not be played as last card
• If two of the same card are played on top of each other, then the next player is skipped and must drink (i.e. if player 2 plays a Jack, and then player 3 plays another Jack, then player 4 is skipped)
• If at any point a player plays a card (or pair or triples) and another player has the 4th card, then that player can play out of turn and lay the 4th card down thus clearing the pile and receiving the honor to lay the next card. All four cards must be played on top of each other. (i.e. three 6’s have been played by players 1, 2 and 4 (since player 3 was skipped), player 6 can play his 6 skipping player 5 and clearing the pile. However, if player 5 plays his card before player 6 can play the 6, then player 6 is SOL). After the 4th card is played, there is a social where everyone raises their beer and drinks, then the game continues with the person who laid the 4th card.
• If during the game anyone other than the asshole clears the pile, that person is automatic asshole for the next round. If the asshole is slow in doing the job, yell at him and make him drink more beer.
• Once a person has been president for three consecutive rounds, that person can make a rule which can consist of anything.

Objective: Be the first person to go out (play all of your cards). Also, be mean. Make people drink. The name of the game is asshole. So if you are not actually the asshole, at least act like one. The point is to get drunk. Nobody likes a nice president.

How the game is played:
First Hand:
After all the cards have been dealt out, the person with the 3 of clubs starts the hand. Continue in clockwise direction. During this hand there are no positions so it does not matter who clears the pile. Furthermore, no one can make another person drink (unless they have been skipped). The first person to go out is president for the next round. The game continues to be played until there is only one person left—the asshole. At this point people should move and sit in order of rank. The president chooses where he wants to sit, and then everyone must move to accommodate him.

Every other hand:
Once ranks have been established, every other hand is played in accordance with the rules established above.
 
LOL! Damn Dan, you must have been crawling to the bathroom or passed out on the bathroom floor. I've never heard of those games before, it sounds interesting.

The one game I've played is "Beer pong" lol and I sucked at it. And I hated the taste of beer. Set up a bunch of plastic cups in a triangle shape and play with a ping pong ball on a ping pong table. Whoever knocks one over has to drink (I think its been forever since I played).

The other game I played was you chug your drink as fast as you can in a minute. The winner sits out while the others go for another round. They keep going until your all shit faced LOL.
 
Century Club and Cups were the ones we always played...oh and we still do Truth and I Never in the bar after hours lol :D
