well?
submit you’re personal favorite with a description.
personally, my favorite is I have a sip every time
someone in ear reach says a word. I find that a simple
game to play. The end result is I forget the what game I am
playing but man, I’m a happy person.

When I was in my teens I had a party trick I used to play:
If there was a cat at the party I’d start going around and asking everyone if they’ve heard anyone play the russian bagpipes (I’d always wait till everyone was pissed before I began). So after about 15 minutes of people going WTF are russian bagpipes??? 
And getting all worked up… I’d gather everyone around, and ask at least three times if they wanted to hear the russian bagpipes(I especially made sure that the host gave permission). Once I got my unanimous request from the group, I then picked up the hosts cat by the scruff of its neck, bit down hard on its tail “RrrraaaaaaaaaaAAA” …and proclaimed “that note was a b minor” 
Not really a game… still fun though 
Soz double post…
Anything based around a repetitive TV show. For example, every time Murdoch manages to piss off one of the rest of the A-Team, it’s a shot. Every time BA says ‘I pity the fool’ or ‘you ain’t gettin me on no plane, sucker’ or ‘you kids better be drinking milk while I’m gone’ or something similar, it’s a double shot.
Or, if you’re a fan of the Simpsons, every time there’s a display of incompetence by the police, or hyperbole by Kent Brockman, or stupidity by Homer, or rebellious imagination by Bart, it’s a shot. Or every time Bart enlists Lisa’s help because she’s smarter. And so on.
Or, if you like Friends, every time Joey mentions how much he likes food, or Chandler is sarcastic, or Rachel is ditzy, or Ross is nerdy, or Monica is obsessive, or Phoebe is ‘crazy’, it’s a shot. Unfortunately, such is the composition of the show, you’ll drink approximately 24 shots per episode, or about one a minute.
Needless to say, if you last more than three episodes of anything playing this game, then you’re doing well.
I tend to be opposed to drinking games. I can get drunk on my own damned time. Plus, I hate it that they make drinking a punishment rather than a reward.
Which is why I enjoy:
-
Drinking chess. Decide on a reasonable alcohol unit (I find a small shot works well, your tolerance may vary), and make 1 point=1 AU. So, if I take a pawn, I get to take a shot. If I take a queen, I get to take 9 shots. The bonus to this game is that there is a natural spoiler. Sure, my opponent may be a better chess player, but not if they are dead drunk.
-
Das Bierspiel. dooyoo.de/brettspiele/das-bierspiel/ Lots of fun. Warning: Requires knowledge of German. Then again, in order to be a philosopher, you should be able to speak German, so that shouldn’t be a problem on this board.
-
“Take a Flaming shot of absinthe (or Everclear)” It’s the game where you take a flaming shot of absinthe (or everclear).
-
The beersnob: Get together with a bunch of people who like beer waaaay too much. Exchange needlessly expensive bottles of beer and sample them in tiny cups. Comment on their subtle (and not-so-subtle) flavours and compare their relative merits. What’s not to like?
Quarters is a favorite game that was played out west where I grew up. It is based on Tiddly Winks. A shot Glass of least favorite or favorite hard liqour is placed in the center of a table and you must bounce a quarter into it. Everyone has their own rules and rules change on this. But the real object is actually to be the least drunk. This game can get pretty wild and the more sober folks actually enjoy it better.
Good ole’ throw the ping pong ball in a cup, called beer pong, its just what we do, never any questions asked.
Oh shame, you splash Beer? I can see wasting alcohol but beer? OOOOh thats a crime. Beer is never to be wasted. 
That there is one of them drinkin rules handed down for eons. If you waste it, how can you cry in your beer? 
I dont drink…
but i’ve heard “Joes Satanic Death Ball is a fun” game
My favorite drinking game has got to be Sociable. To be used, as most are, with a beer or mixed drink.
You need a deck of cards with you pass around ‘the circle’ of people, a person drawing a card each time.
Here is the legend.
2 - 2 drinks
3 - 3 drinks
4 - give away four drinks
5 - give away five
6 - give away six
7 - 7’s (go around the ‘circle’, each person saying the next number in increments of 1 (fast), and saying ‘fuck you’ on 7, mulitples of 7, or any number with 7 in it. You won’t get past 50ish unless you drinking US beer.
8 - Sociable! Everyone drinks
9 - Story. Go around the circle fast, each person adding a word to the story. First word to not make sense - they drink.
10 - Categories. Pick a category (types of cars, films, prime colors, etc) go around the circle naming things in the category until someone messes up or doesn’t have one to say right away.
Jack - Rule. You make a rule. Now this is where it gets interesting because if you break the rules… you drink. So it’s best to have one in which people will break it often like… no pronouns, or… no first or last names.
Queen - Rule
King - Shot of hard liquor.
Ace - Bathroom card. Use to go to bathroom.
This game gets me fucking gordoed every single time.
isent that usually called kings
Ace= sometimes it is fun to have this be a truth or dare card, where the person who pulled it either has to answer a truth or dare, or gets to ask. You decide. And then everyone drinks.
King= poor as much beer as you like into the king’s cup in the center of the table. Last person to pull a king drinks the cup.
Queen= person who pulls makes eye contact with anyone in the circle and asks a question, that person in turn has to ask a different person a different question. This is a rapid fire exercise. The first person to mess up has to drink.
Jack= this is called get back. The person who pulled this card gets to make someone drink as revenge for something.
10= categories: a category is picked, such as brands of beer. The 1st person names one, then the next person. This goes on until someone messes up by saying something that has already been named or they can’t think of one. That person drinks.
9= bust a rhyme: say a sentence that is going to be easy to rhyme with. The next person has to make a sentence that rhymes with it. First person to mess up drinks.
8= pick a mate: chose someone else to drink with you.
7= waterfall: everyone stands up. All start drinking. You can’t stop until the person before you in the order stops. It benefits you to be sitting next to the person who pulled this card. The person at the end is screwed.
6= is for dicks: all guys drink
5= five up high: all raise a hand. Last person to raise hand drinks. Also fun, five on the thigh.
4= is for whores: all girls drink
3= Social: everyone drinks.
2= you drink. Person who pulls card drinks.
the first that comes to mind is the withnail and i drinking game, everyone picks a character (either withnail or i depending on how ambitious you are) and then you drink everything they drink, the last man (or woman) standing wins… its best to pretend you dont see the lighter fluid…
the second is a game that we created on my sixteenth birthday, its called strip or shot…
you need a dice
but to be honest i was very very drunk and its been 2 years so i cant quite remember the rules, but it involved drinking and stripping…
i have them written down somewhere, if i find them i’ll post them
