*account got timed out and lost the original post ://////// will edit in my contribution of game ideas.

TL has some alcoholics in here xD. So why don't we post some drinking games we play. Especially would love to hear games that is popular in your local area but not known else where. Love to introduce your games into the next social event I participate. Remember to post rules.

* Drink responsibly. If sounds dangerous and/or unlawful (tvz cheesing) please don't do it. Have fun.

Cheers!

Heres a fun one to do with friends if you're into like nature and... drinks

Take one drink if you see:
The introduction
Aflock of birds
The satellite view of Earth
The use ofslowor accelerated motion
Any helicopter views
Anytime something dies
Animals giving birth
Or hear them say Planet Earth
Massive heards of animals
Sexual refrences

Take two drinks if you see:
If you see something that is worthy of saying "wow that's fucking cool."
Larvae or baby animals.
Gay classical music montage during the show
When there are storms or rain

Take three drinks if you see:
A rainbow
Anytime an animal has an unusual feature
A bleeped swear word
An Underwater Camera

One of my favorite and most fun: Drinking Jenga

Requirements : 1 set of Jenga (that you can write on with a sharpie)

On each Jenga piece you will write 2 things, one of the top and one on the bottom.

Things like...

Take a swig: Derrppp
Take a shot: Derrpppp
Categories: I say "Types of units in starcraft" and start with Carrier, the next person says brood lord, the next person says Warhound, obviously he has to drink because the warhound isn't a unit in sc2 anymore ^_^
Rules: One person makes a universal rule that will stay in effect until completion of game or another rule is pulled)
No Names: If you say someones name, you take a drink, nicknames count!)
Moose: Each person raises their hands to the sides of the face as fast as they can, last person to do it takes a drink)
Truth or Dare: This can be kinda hit or miss, depends on the group of people your with.
Rhymes: Person who pulled the tile thinks of a word, each person in succession will think of a different word that rhymes with the original word.
KILL IT: Doesn't matter if you've only had a sip of your drink or you have only a sip left... Kill the drink, pour another.
Touch of death: Choose someone playing the game with you, then they choose someone, this continues until only one person is remaining, the last person needs to finish their entire drink. (Be careful if No Names rule is up everyone will have to drink while doing this unless you get clever by pointing and such.)

On each Jenga tile (bottom and top) you will write a different thing. The fun of the game is it's different every time because you can make a rule when you start playing to either play the tops or the bottoms.

Now, when pulling jenga tiles you should make the rule that when you touch a tile, no matter the cost that is the tile you have to pull from the set.

When the tower falls you can make your own rules, I usually play that everyone has to kill their drinks and the person who felled the tower needs to restack it.

RECCOMMENDATION: Add some, more adult-fun rules like, remove an article of clothing, kiss the closest person of the opposite sex. etc... etc...
Put all these tiles in a different color sharpie, NOW you automatically have TWO FULL SETS of drinking jenga, Fun and Adult
Why?

Simple yet fun drinking game that I like to play is called "Cheers to the Governor". Heres how it works:
Everyone has a drink in their hands you start off with a rule that can apply to any number from 1-21 (ex. the numbers 6 and 9 are now switched.) So a chosen person starts off counting and when you get the rule, you must apply it or you take a drink. Then you start over. If you managed to get to 21, we all shout Cheers to the Governor! and everyone takes a drink. Afterwards, the person who got to 21 can now add a rule. This goes on until all 21 numbers are filled with rules.

Mind you, you can have whatever number you want and the rules can be almost anything (my friends and I usually stick to verbal things ). I am not sure if this game is more well-known or not. Cheers!

Get a N64 and Super Smash Brothers, put 4 AI controlled pikachu on easy up against each other and the bet on them. (make up your rules when to drink, like the one you bet on randomly walks off the stage etc)

OR get the game looping louie, and take shots everytime you lose a coin
Inputting special characters into chat should no longer cause the game to crash.

I'm going to tell you an idea from a friend on facebook.

Basically you take post it notes and draw a mustache cut it accordingly then place it on the TV and when the characters align with the mustache you take a shot LOL

My favorite:

+ Show Spoiler +

In light of the documentary about Chloe Prince that will air tomorrow night, I thought we should all be prepared for what looks like it’s going to be a doozy of a predictable documentary.

So, the rules, such as they are, for watching a trans documentary:

1. Putting on makeup. Two drinks for reverse camera shot into mirror.
2. Doing anything better done in jeans and sneakers in heels and a skirt. Examples: cleaning the house, shoveling the sidewalk, yard work, walking the dog.
3. Before picture shown. Two drinks for picture in stereotypical male mode (sports team, facial hair, military, wedding tux)
4. Camera shot putting on or taking off a bra.
5. Photo of any wig, breast form, padding, etc.
6. Surprise disclosure, when a trans woman is introduced and then partway through the piece, her secret is revealed.
7. Camera focus on masculine body parts: hands, feet, Adam’s apple, height, etc.
8. Any reference to genital surgery that refers to “becoming a woman” or “finally a woman”
9. Minor chords played softly on a piano
10. talk show host saying “you go girl”
11. any discussion of plumbing or electricity
12. black and white childhood shots, MTF with cap gun and cowboy hat, FTM as ballerina.
13. Trans woman saying, “I am not a crossdresser. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.”
14. Trans woman clutching large teddy bear in hospital bed.
15. Birthday balloons after surgery.
16. Trans woman with new boyfriend (after shot of tearful ex-wife).
17. Trans woman sitting in chair in above-the-knee skirt, posed so you can see what great gams she has.
18. Patient wheeled off to surgery …
19. … lingering shot of the hospital bed with the teddy bear (or wife) left behind.
20. Shot of protaganist sitting at the computer keyboard, looking at a trans support website or surgeon’s website….
21. Any helping professional teaching deportment
22. Camera in the operating room – just drink the whole bottle
23. Any and all deployments of soft focus = 1 shot
24. Close up of dotted lines in magic marker on pale fleshy body parts = 1 shot
25. Earnest surgeon describes his motivation as “to help [girlname] become the woman she’s always really felt herself to be” = 3 shots
26. Before picture with extreme facial hair – 1 shot
27. Before picture in uniform – Military, Football, etc… – 2 shots
28. Video from hair removal session : Laser – 1 shot, electrolysis – 2 shots
29. Before picture – Last time she wore a dress (F2M) – 1 shots
30. Breast binding – 2 shots
31. Taking Hormones – Self-injecting -3 shots, orals – 1 shot
32. Did anyone mention an arduous and lonely childhood?
33. Meeting the school bully as “the new me” at the High School reunion?
34. Looking at the old picture of self and saying something to the effect of “he was a nice guy….” or “Ken was a lot of fun, but his time is over. It’s Ginger’s turn now!”
35. Trans woman claiming to have IS chromosomal pattern, an affinity for washing dishes, a sudden dislike of sports, etc.

You'll get so smashed you won't remember the documentary--possibly a good thing though.

We did a jenga one once where each block had a little code in washable pen on it.
When you pulled your block you read the code and did the drink associated with it, there were also special codes to make others drink or to do a more harsh drink (something that tastes bad/down a pint/do a line of shots)
Was pretty fun
EDIT: HERP DERP thats exactly what you described.
Also done one at a LAN we hosted, a 5on5 cs match with drinks for actions in the round (one deags, plants, defuses, clutches etc.)

The Team Liquid Drinking Game:

Take a drink when you see:
- General Forum: Any thread devolving into an argument about religion
- General Forum: Any thread discussion having to do nothing with the topic by Page 6
- General Forum: The mods coming in to break up a fight on any music thread, the pics thread, or high thread
- Strategy Forum: Someone giving advice without watching the replay
- Strategy Forum: People whining about one (or more) of the races being OP
- Blogs: Any girl blog that can be summarized by "I'm too shy to talk to her and/or got in the friendzone, what do"
- Blogs: A second drink if one of the comments on said girl blog points out the above.
- Any thread that devolves into a BW vs SC2 flame war

Take two when you see:
- A poster who got banned as you were reading the thread.

Down your glass if the thread you were reading just got closed.

Hardcore Special: Go on the HotS forum and take a drink every time someone types an angry message about the beta being imbalanced.

I thought this thread would be about TL drinking games, not drinking games in general, like take a drink whenever someones jokes about destructible rocks or collosus falling over

Here is a Russian drinking to end all drinking games. The legend says that no one has ever beaten it in one night. It's one of those you play against your tolerance and sanity.

The White Bear Cometh and the White Bear Leave(th?) (rough translation)
1. Fill a pint glass with beer. Drink half of it.
2. Fill the remaining half with vodka. Drink half of it.
3. Repeat step 2 until your glass has no (apparent) beer in it i.e. totally clear. Then you say "The White Bear has Arrived."
4. Drink half of the mostly-vodka pint. Fill it the remaining half with beer.
5. Repeat step 4 until your glass has no (apparent) vodka. At this point you will need an objective judge to confirm. If confirmed, you say "Va Vite Breaur haws Weft." Just kidding, you say "The White Bear has Departed."

Good luck, comrades. I have gotten to step 4, don't think I ever started step 5.
