All empty spaces should be shot glasses filled with water to help avoid a hangover.

Probably better to have a single normal glass you drink from whenever you miss, finding and filling that many water shot glasses would be pain

I think you mean to help simulate the sea warfare experience.

Salt water only

Alcohol poisoning the game!

First battle shots, then battle shits.

I thought those were deviled eggs at first and got soooo happy

I'm not alone! I thought the same thing.

Those are 100% duct taped cardboard.

Yea I realized that and deleted the comment but it just stays there 🤷

I count 32 total shots, this seems like a potentially fatal game

Depends on what's in the glasses. Probably wouldn't want to do it with neat liquor.

Does remind me of a scene in MAS*H where Hawkeye and...I think it was Beejay?...were playing checkers with shots. They drank everything they captured. One gets across the board and he says "King me." and the other puts an olive in the glass. One has clear liquor (presumably their homemade gin) and the other has a brown liquor, apparently whiskey.

I would recommend "kinging" the whiskey glasses with a cherry rather than an olive.

Considering that the goal of drinking games is to get you drunk I think it's ironic that the winning team in almost all of these games is the one that drinks the least.

Now we need games for other drugs.

Cokeopoly. Meth chess. Heroin pong. Weed go.

Better. You should work in marketing.

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 11 points 11 months ago

This is an amazing idea.

You drank my battleship!

You know, nitrous oxide canisters are kinda peg-shaped...

[–] Mammothmothman@lemmy.ca 2 points 11 months ago

Battle wippits?

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

This is brilliant.

I have played this before you need a team of 2-4 to play it. We used fireball but also allowed for some water shots as well

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 4 points 11 months ago

We played baseball

It’s better for parties of more than 2 people

Add a full mug of beer after getting a ship sunk!

This one's even worse. You take a shot if you miss, they take a shot if you hit: https://youtube.com/watch?v=kUMaIr4MEHg
