As the game progresses and the players become inebriated, the many rules often prove difficult to remember. The objective of the game is not to be a stickler however, but to enjoy the game and have fun. Some examples of made-up rules include, but are not limited to: banning the word “drink,” have a drink before each attempted shot, no use of proper names, etc.
However, it is not good enough to simply pass the cup to the opponent with the other cup. You must stack the cup inside your opponent’s cup. This action serves to prevent the loser from attempting another shot, since oftentimes the loser is unaware that their opponent has “screwed” them.
Some rules insist that all other players take penalty drinks, others require only the player who “screwed” the loser to drink. Sometimes the player who “screwed” the loser is given a single shot just like the loser had, and the two take turns shooting until someone misses. Another option for the penalty beverage is that the player who “screwed” the loser is allowed to spin a quarter, and the loser has to drink a beer or a mixed drink for as long as the quarter remains standing. In the case where the loser makes the final shot, she must then spin a quarter and everyone else drinks for as long as the loser allows it to spin.
