Ring of Fire Official Rules:
- First to set up the game, clear off a table and set a cup in the middle with the deck of cards placed around the cup in a circle.
- Now get a group of friends to gather around the table, each person having a cup/bottle of alcohol to themselves.
- Before you start the game you must know what each card stands for:
A- waterfall- meaning everyone must keep drinking until the person who picked the card stops, so who knows how long you will be going for!
2- is for you- you can choose someone to drink
3- is for me- you must drink
4- is whore- all girls drink
5- thumb master- when you put your thumb on the table everyone must follow and whomever is last must drink. you are the thumb master till someone else picks a five.
6- is dicks- all guys drink
7- is heaven- point your finger in the sky, whoever is last must drink
8- is mate- choose someone to drink with you
9- rhyme- pick a word such a dog and the person next to you must rhyme with dog, like log, and it goes to the next person and the next, in a circle, until someone messes up and he or she will have to drink
10- categories- pick a category such a football and you go in a circle and everyone has to say a word that fits with football such as: touchdown, field goal, USC. Whoever messes up, drinks.
Jack- make a rule- you can make up any rule that everyone has to follow, such as you can only drink with your right hand. Everyone (including you) must follow this rule for the whole entire game and if you disobey you must drink.
Queen- Questions- Go around in a circle and you have to keep asking questions to each other. Doesn’t matter what the question is, as long as its a question. Whoever messes up and does not say a question, drinks.
King- pour!- you must pour a little of your drink into the cup that is in the middle of the table. Whomever picks up the LAST king must drink the whole cup, which could be filled with different drinks, so who knows how bad it could taste! - Now that you know the rules. One person starts off by picking up a card, and whatever the card may be, follow the rule. Go in a circle and keep picking a card till the last King is picked!
How to Play Beer Pong aka Beruit
Here is a quick video tutorial on how to play beer pong (see below for official written rules)
Official Rules:
*In an effort to standardize rules and allow interstate competitions, we suggest using the “West Coast Rules” seen below*
- If you drink beer while playing beerpong, drink in moderation and stay in control. This keeps it fun for everyone.
- Lobs only (strictly enforced, not like regular ping pong. Each ball should have a solid 2-3 foot arc). Winning shots which aren’t lobs don’t count. Re-do the point.
- Cups go in the corners of the table (paddle in from the side and back of the table)
- Hoops in the cup = The person who got hooped has to drink a designated amount of beer (determined before the game starts).
- Hits on the cup, but not in the cup = one sip.
- The point is never over until the ball is hit off the table, or it bounces twice. A hit on the cup does not count as a bounce (i.e. hit the cup then hit the table, you can still hit it back before it bounces on the table a second time)
- All drinks (an accumulation of hits) occur after the point is over.
- The team hooped has the opportunity to throw the ball back into their opponents cup (either one) from their side of the table (don’t lean in too much). If the throwback is successful, the person throwing back gets to decide if both teams drink, or if the drinks are cancelled. Also, if the throwback is successful, the other team gets the opportunity to throw back, thus nullifying the original throwback, and so on.
- Doubles – partners rotate shots (just like regular ping pong).
- Singles – cups go into center of table (paddle in from edge).
- Must win by 2 points.
- Play to 21 or 11 if others are waiting to get on the table
Other rules to point out:
- Stoners: If the ball skips off the edge of the table before the other team can get a paddle on it, its declared a “Stoner”. Although the team who made the stoner still gets the point, they have to drink once since they got such a cheap ass point.
- Space: If you forget the scores, or forget to drink or any other space, you and your partner have to drink.
- Remember, one for all and all for one. If one teammate drinks, both have to. No saying, “You got hooped, or hit, you drink”. Both teammates drink together.
Other Variations on Beer Pong Rules:
How to Play Flip Cup
Official Rules:
A typical game of Flippy Cup is composed of two teams with usually 6 to 10 players per team, but that amount can vary as long as there is an even number of players. Once a person has been assigned to a team they cannot be traded until the end of match play. Once the teams have decided which side of the table they will play they fill their cup with a small amount of beer.
The amount that each person pours can be agreed upon by the teams or can be based on each players preference. A standard amount of beer to be pour would be to the first line in a red solo plastic cup. At this time a small amount of beer is poured on the table to add suction to the playing surface.
Once the beer is poured a starting end and finishing end is determined. The players at the starting end begin match play by tapping their cup down, tapping each others cup, tapping down again, and then proceed to drink their beer. Once the beer has been finished they will place their cup right side up on the edge of the table so that a small portion of the cup extends past the table. They then use their fingers to flip the cup until it lands upside down on the table. Players cannot use two hands to help cup stay upright. Only the first players may touch their cups, all other players must wait to hold their cups until the player preceding them has successfully completed the flip. Once the starting players get their cup to land upside down the second players in line can grab their beer and then begin to drink their beer and start the flipping process, this continues until they reach the end of the table. The first team to successfully flip their cups wins that match.
The amount of matches played in Flippy cup is determined by the amount of players per team, if there are four players on each team then there will be four matches played. After each match each player should rotate positions on the table so that each person gets an opportunity to be on the starting and finishing ends of the table. To win the game a team must win by two games or the game continues until their is a winner.
How to Play Asshole (aka President) – Official Card Game Rules
Here are the official rules on how to play the drinking card game Asshole (aka President).
Start Up
- All cards in the deck (minus jokers) are dealt out clockwise, one at a time, starting with the Asshole (loser of the last game.)
Objective of the Game
- The object of the game is to get rid of all your cards before anyone else, the first one to do so is President. The last person to do so is labeled the Asshole.
General Gameplay
- The order of cards from lowest to highest is 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K, A, with 2 and 3 being special cards. The suite of the card does not matter in this game. A pair of any kind is higher than a single (so two 3’s is higher than a single ace), any triple higher than any double, etc. Four of a kind will clear the round.
Roles in the Game
- President: The last person who won is the President. This means that you will get to give your worst card to the Asshole in exchange for their best. You may also make anyone drink at anytime for anything you want to. Depending on the rules you may have to win a certain number of games before you can become the official President.
- Asshole: You where the last person with cards in the previous round. This means you must deal, clear the cards, as well forfeit your best card to the President in exchange for their worst.
- Everyone Else: Depending on how many people you have, you can make up “official” sounding positions for them such as Vice President, Secretary, Clerk, Senoir Asshole, etc.
Special Cards
- 2 – Clear (♣♠♥♦): This card is a clear, no matter what is played this card clears the round and the person who uses it goes again with a fresh round.
- 3 – Wild (♣♠♥♦): This is a wild card or two 3’s played is a clear. A player may choose its value to be anything except a 2. Note that this card DOES NOT take the place of a natural card (to skip a player or count towards the completing of a number set.)
- 4 of Clubs (♣): Before there is a President, the player with the 4 of clubs starts the game by laying down that card only.
Popular Rules Made by Presidents
- Thumb Master Any time the President puts down their thumb the last person to follow must drink.
- Eye Contact Anyone who makes eye contact with the President must drink.
- Beer Bitch The President picks one person for the job of getting everyone beer at the table.
- Little Man Everyone has a pretend “little man” on the lip of their beer, and they must remove him with their fingers and place him on the table, drink, then put him back on each time they take a drink. If anyone forgets to do this they must drink.
- No Names Anyone who uses a person’s name at the table must drink.
- Before the hand starts, someone must give the President a toast (this is an opportune time to kiss-ass to the President). If no toast is presented, the President can give out his own punishment.
- There is a “social” (everyone must drink) when three cards of the same value are played in one round. Not only for three cards played by different people, but also for triples!
- Then there is the board meeting. Everyone starts drinking and is not allowed to stop drinking until the person above him stops drinking (i.e. the VP cannot stop until the Pres. stops, the Tres. cannot stop until the VP stops, et cetera). As you can see, this another disadvantage of being the asshole (low man on the totem pole). Only the President can call a board meeting.
The point of Asshole is to get creative, especially when it comes to rules.
Strategy for Not Being the Asshole
To some degree, you have to learn the strategy by playing, but here are a few tips.
- The most important skill in this game is to be able to count the cards and keep track of which cards have already been played.
- Another important tip is to make sure that you keep some of your high cards for later stages of the round. If you are left with a 3 and 4 in your hand, your chances of becoming Asshole are pretty high. You need to have cards that will allow you to get the lead so that you can dump the low cards that you have not been able to get rid of.
- Sometimes it may be wise to split a high pair. For example, if you have a pair of aces, there may be situations where it is better to play the aces individually than as a pair. This will really depend on what the rest of your hand looks like.
- If you have 2 cards left and one of them is a 2, always play the 2 first. Let’s say you have a 2 and a 10 left. If you play the 10 first somebody may go out while you are waiting the play to come back around to you. You also run the risk of getting skipped on the way back around. If you play the 2 first, it is swept and then you play your 10 and are out.
- Kiss ass to the president whenever possible.
- Unless you are looking to get really trashed, make others drink whenever possible. This will improve your odds of moving up the ranks and not being an asshole.
So have fun, don’t drive drunk, and don’t be an asshole.
