TIMBER!!!!!
Just a little drinking game to help you through New Year's Eve, some of you may know it.
All you need is one shot glass per person, toothpicks, one empty bottle and plenty of full bottles with the drink of your choice.
Sit all players around the empty bottle (with the bottle in an upright position, this is not "spin the bottle").
Poor a shot glass for each player and place it in front of him/her.
The first player places a tooth pick balanced on the neck of the empty bottle, the second player adds another toothpick, and the rest of the players keep adding toothpicks until the pile falls.
When the pile falls every player shouts "timber".
The player who caused the pile to collapse drinks his/her shot glass (same as anyone who might have forgotten to shout "timber").
The player who caused the fall is the first one to play in the next round.
If any of you plan to play this on the 31st of December be aware that if you play this game with liquor and start early there is the chance you will pass out before midnight.

I like this game, DC!
But I have a feeling that after a few shots, I'll be the one who'll be toppling over like an oak tree!
TIMBER!
Did you pass out Dcver? You still there?
Makes me think of that old pirates' rum song, "15 men on a dead man's chest, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum."
I think "chest" means the treasure chest.
cream: Try it with something that is not very strong, like 'sangria'.
GG: Nope still here, still standing. ;)
Here's the mother of all drinking games: while at a Halloween party recently, I was amazed to discover a Drinking Wheel. It is like the Wheel of Fortune, but instead of winning money, you can give a shot, take a shot, pour a shot or whatever. Oh, and this particular house also had a built-in stage complete with mirror behind, lights everywhere and right there in the middle: a pink stripper pole. Classy.
Yikes DC. I'm having a little get-together on New Years, and one of the guests has told me he's bringing Tequila. We could try a drinking game, but I'm going to encourage living room dancing instead!
Hope you have a GREAT New Year, DC! Here's to 2006!

bunny jo: That drinking wheel thing sounds a lot of fun! The weirdest bar I've ever been to is a lesbian karaoke bar here in Lisbon (yes, guys are allowed in) - they have a huge mirror over the restrooms and the restrooms walls don't go all the way up to the ceiling. And yes, should you be wondering I only found out when I was inside the restroom.
penny: I'll be spending the New Year's Eve at some friends place, or working in case there is trouble at the lab. Hope you enjoy yourself.
isis: One can't know too many drinking games! Thanks.
last girl: Thanks. Timber and tequilla are an explosive mixture, dancing is a lot safer. Have fun.
That sounds like tons of fun! I can't hold my liquor so I'm sure I'd keel over after the first shot. Bet it would be entertaining to watch though.
Norwegian version is more democratic.. At first every body bangs their hands rythmically on the table and the one who last lost, screams "whats the name of the game?", then everybody shouts "timber!" then the person in charge yells "whats the object?"; answer:"get fucked up!" and then it turns into a question, and then the looser have to drink; but then the next game is his. A very effective way to get thrown out of places alltogether, and grinning at the same time. Everybody ends up totally fucked:)
Well, new years eve was few minutes ago here in Chile and I just invented my own drinking game: to refill glass as soon is empty, then drink again and repeat ad infinitum. Well, Im half drunk, half? uhhh (hic!) salud!
Feliz año 2006 for all of you!!!
