Shenantics

Unless otherwise stated, the following game instructions will be taken as Shenantic House Rules and will be the rules followed at all shenantic members respective homes

Beer pong

Six cups (Solo® brand party cups are the preferred style) are arranged in a triangle on each side a long table.  The cups are then filled with 1/3 of a beer for a total of 2 beers per side.  Each person/team throws a pingpong ball (2 balls are thrown per turn) from behind their side of the table at the opposing teams cups.  Any cups made during a turn are drank by the opposing team.  Other rules:

1. DONT BE A BITCH! – If you lose you drink the other teams cups too (people are waiting so drink them fast)
2. ELBOWS PEOPLE – At no point should your elbow go beyond the edge of the table, if it does and the other teams calls you on it you drink a cup
3. EYE-TO-EYE – For those of you who don’t know when there are 2 new teams on the table the team that shoots first will be determined using the following procedure:
   • One player from each team will get a ball and look eachother in the eye
   • On 3 both players will shoot, the team making the ball shoots first
   • If both teams miss or both teams make the ball team-mates switch and the process is repeated as necessary
4. BOUNCES – Personally I don’t like this rule … but bounces count as 2 cups
5. DRINK FAST – Either drink it fast or … well don’t be a pussy drink it fast. If the other team makes the cup in your hand or the same cup twice YOU LOSE! … get the fuck off the table
6. FINGERING AND BLOWING – I know what your thinking and no!
   • Fingering – Refers to when the ball is spinning inside the cup and fingers are used to scoop it out. In this house there will be none of this
   • Blowing – Pretty much the same thing except you blow the ball out of the cup instead of fingering it … this is reserved for females only … as it should be

Quarters

There are many variations of the game quarters so I am only going to mention a few played here at shenantics.

Traditional

Collins Style

Five glasses are set up (2 shot glasses, 2 medium cups, eg coffee, and 1 regular, eg solo cup) on a table.  Two players start shooting at the pyramid starting with the shotglasses.  The game is played in tiers, each player must make the shot glass before they can make the coffee cup and must make the coffee cup before the regular cup.  Once a player (called Collin) makes a cup he is allowed to cover the cup of the other player.  The player must then forfeit their quarter to Collin and must drink the made beer before they can start shooting again using Collin’s quarter. The first person to make the regular cup wins the match.

Anchorman

Each team starts by choosing an anchor.  Each team will have a pitcher of beer and each team member will be given a quarter.  One player of each team will battle each other at a time, each player will try to bounce a quarter into their pitcher.  Once a player makes their quarter into their pitcher, their next teammate may begin shooting their quarter.  Once all the players on a team make their quarters they begin drinking their pitcher of beer.  Every player must drink some of the pitcher and the anchor must finish the pitcher.  Every player may only drink once and the anchor cannot drink until all other team members have drank.  The first team to finish their pitcher wins.

Flip Cup

Each team sets up one side of a table opposite a member of the other team.  Each team member will place a solo cup in front of them.  Before the round begins, each player will fill their cup with 1/3 of a beer.  One player from each team (opposite eachother) will start the match.  The starters will begin using down-up-down rules, they will touch their cups DOWN to the table, then UP to touch cups, and finally back DOWN to the table, after which they will drink their cup as quickly as possible.  Once all the their beer has been finished, the player will place their cup rightside up on the edge of the table and try to flip it over onto its rim (aka facedown).  Once a player flips his cup facedown the next teammember may begin drinking their beer and trying to flip their cup.  This pattern is repeated until all team member finish their beer and flip their cups facedown.  The first team to flip all their cups wins the match.  The next match begins with the players next to the original starters using the same DOWN-UP-DOWN technique.  The match will precede the same way with all team members drinking and flipping and ending with original starters.  Enough matches are played so that all players have started at least once and a best of series has been completed giving one team the victory.

Case Race

This one is simple, each team must finish a case a beer as quickly as possible without vomiting.  Any teammember that vomits must sit out and the other members must finish his share as well as their own.
