    Well we got 3 events so far. Even if we dont get anymore I think that would be pretty good for a first time thing.

    And as it gets closer and more people come back to the board we might be able to add a few more.

    What I need to get is (the rules they play by) from eL and 327 for their games that way I can start getting things together.

    I want to start getting every thing done early, cause I got a feeling the months of Sept and Oct are gonna be REALLY busy!

    Ok so

    1. 10 cups, 2 players on each side. Both players get to shoot, then the opposing team gets their two shots.
    2. When two new teams are on the table, one player from each team will go eye to eye to see who geos first. After that, the winning team goes first every game. Winner stays up. (in a tourney situation, e2e every game)
    3. If the first person makes a cup, leave the cup till after the second person throws (don't pull the cup)
    4. Each cup made counts as 1 cup. Bouncing counts as 2 cups, but can be swatted. Same cup is 3 cups.
    5. If both players make it (same cup or 2 different cups), balls back, (like make it take it)
    6. Regroup at 6 and 3. Always regroup to the front. Regroups cannot be made in the middle of a turn. (if it's time for a regroup, but the team gets balls back, they must wait till after their turn is over to get the regroup).
    7. REDEMPTION: after one team has made all their the opposing team's cups, the "losing" team has a chance to come back and go into overtime*. The "losing team must make all of the remaining cups consecutively. If this is done, each team puts the front 3 cups back up and play overtime. The team that origionally won goes first.
    *If there is any outstanding cups, overtime is not granted. e.g. If the winning team makes same cup with 1 or two cups remaining, there should be a third cup for the losers to drink. They do not get a chance at redemption.



    I think that about covers it all. And it should be easy enough for even the most novice player to understand.

    ok,

    1) we play with 2 teams of 4 on a long table facing one another.

    2) before the game starts each player must fill their cup to a pre-determined line (usually about a shot's worth).

    3) the game works like a relay going from left to right. starting with a lead-off player and ending with an anchor player.

    4) once the game is started (usually by an objective party or the two lead-offs "cheers" to start) the players must down their shot of beer.

    5) after the shot is downed the player must place the cup right side up on the edge of the table in front of them. the player must flip the cup so it lands rim or lip down (that's what she said).
    the player must do this until the cup lands upside down on the table.

    6) when the lead off players complete a legal flip successfully then the next person repeats and so on until the anchor players finishes.

    7) the team who's anchor finishes first wins the game.

    8) the format is first team to win 4 games wins the match (best of 7).

    9) the starting position rotates to the next player over. so lead offs are always across from another and so are anchors and so on.

    so below players 1-4 are team A and players 5-8 are team B


    5 6 7 8 B
    -----------------
    1 2 3 4 A

    the first game player 1 would start for team A and player 5 would start for team B. they would play until either player 4 or 8 finishes first.

    on the second game player 2 would lead off against player 6 and would go down the line and players 1 and 5 would be competing anchors this time.

    hopefully, that's not too confusing. it's alot easier to play than it is to write about.

    i'll nix the first one, that sounds too much like work.

    but the second one could be interesting. i think we're at a disadvantage though, it would be very fun.

    327, you and I in a one on one styrofoam ice chest destruction contest could be more riveting than Lakers/Celtics, Yankees/Red Sox, and this US Open I am watching right now.
