Beer Pong - Referee Version
Raw
A.markdown

Beer Pong - Referee!!!

This is a variation of beer pong that allows for as many players as a table can fit, and ends when you die.

The basic rules are simple. Add your own rules as you see fit.

The Players

There are 2 types of players in this version of beer pong.

The referee, and everyone else.

The Referee

The referee stands at the middle of the table, and has their own cup. This cup starts with the same amount of alcohol as everyone else's. The referee changes every time one of the teams puts the ball in a cup.

The referee is the only player who can have multiple cups.

Your Job

As referee you have 2 simple jobs:

  • Down all your alcohol if someone throws the ping pong ball into your cup
    • You may not be replaced until you have finished everything
  • Count the number of missing throws
    • If 5 consecutive throws miss, the team that made the 5th throw downs all their cups and tops-up
    • Every time the ball goes into a cup, the count resets
Your Cup (or Cups)

Being referee is a temporary job.

Every time a ball falls into one of the teams' cups, the owner of that cup becomes referee, you take their place, and the referee cup gets a top-up.

If, however, someone throws the ball into your referee cup, you must down the contents of your cup, or cups. Only when you have downed all your cups can you swap out with another player. Too slow, and everyone will continue filling another cup for you!

Everyone Else

Everyone else splits up equally on the throwing ends of the table. There is one cup per person, no more, no less.

Know this:

  • You will lose your cup
  • You will abandon your team
Your job

Get the ping pong ball into an opponent's cup. There are 2 scenarios that can occur:

Get the ball into an opponent's cup:

  • Everyone screams "REFOREEEEEE!!!" excitedly
  • They down their cup
  • They leave their cup, and become referee
  • The current referee takes his place and cup
  • The referee cup gets a top-up
    • If the referee cup is full, a new cup is added for top-ups

Get the ball into the referee's cup

  • The referee downs whatever contents there are in his cup / cups
  • Gameplay continues
    • if the referee is not done with all his drinks, another referee cup will be used for top-ups

Penalties

Any failed attempt at a referee cup resulting in the ball not passing the halfway mark of the table is a penalty. The player throwing that ball downs his cup, and becomes referee.
