Re: Beer Pong Poll
Never played it.

Re: Beer Pong Poll
That is beer pong, aka Beirut.
I normally play with 10 cups if it's a small gathering, 6 cups if there are 10+ people playing. I've never played it with paddles, but I've heard of this being done in the midwest. The bounce is a legal shot, but can be swatted, and if you make it, you must drink 2 cups instead of one. And cripples should not play this game as shown in your picture. It requires great reflexes to catch the ball when your opponents miss. |
Re: Beer Pong Poll
That table is too small. Also, once a cup has been hit, the defending team has the responsibility of removing that cup from the table before the second shooter shoots. If they fail to do this, and the second shooter hits the same cup, it's game over.
And losers have to drink all remaining cups on the table. |
Re: Beer Pong Poll
That is beirut, which is played with 10 cups and usually 3-4 beers.
Pong is played with paddles, 6 cups, and 4-5 beers (whatever constitutes a full pitcher). A table that short/narrow would make for a really really bad pong game. |

[/ QUOTE ] This is how we play it, bounces can be swatted, if made you must drink two cups. If we have two people on each team then you must give the balls back if they make both shots. Great game, another question is how much beer do you guys use when filling the cups. Half full, quarter full? |

[/ QUOTE ] no, beer pong is different than beirut. the pictured game is beirut, which involves throwing, and sometimes bouncing, ping pong balls into cups. beer pong is played with paddles, just like regular ping pong. except, there are 2 cups per side, and the object is to 1) hit the opponents cup and 2) score points after the cup is hit |

Re: Beer Pong Poll

how much beer do you guys use when filling the cups. Half full, quarter full? [/ QUOTE ] Usually about 1/4-1/3. Not so much that drinking an individual cup slows down the game. Sometimes the middle cup is full, I'm not sure how common that is though. |

Re: Beer Pong Poll
Awesome Post. Within my friend group we play.
Beer Pong/Beirut (we use both names) No paddles (thats weird) Bounces count as 2 cups (no ball return), but can be swatted. We used to let everyone blow, but now have removed it (too many arguments) Two in one cup used to end the game, we are also moving away from that. You don't have to wait for both people to throw to throw again, "Speed Pong"..hell when we first played in college, we had "full contact/loose ball" rules. Basically if you missed, it was anyones ball. |

[/ QUOTE ] in beer pong, almost completely full. every hit on the cup means you drink 1/4 of it. a 'plop', meaning the balls lands in the cup, means you owe a full beer. a typical beer pong game by my senior year at Union meant 15-20 beers per person in a standard 21 point game. |

[ QUOTE ] beer pong is played with paddles, just like regular ping pong. except, there are 2 cups per side [/ QUOTE ] WTF? [/ QUOTE ] yep, 2 cups per side. kind of like this, except we played with each cup about 2 feet in from the side of the table, and 2 feet up from the end. here are the rules we played played by, as explained in the link beer pong link a few posts back: FIJI NYU Version from The unofficial beer pong website, originally submitted by Tripp Owen, NYU * 1. 12 oz cups, 4 drinks to a cup, drink a full cup on a sink. * 2. Winner keeps table, 21 game, etc... * 3. No extra points for sinks. * 4. In doubles the cups sit about 1 1/2 paddle lengths from the side of the table and the standard 1 paddle length from the top. In singles one cup sits at the center of the table one paddle length from the top. * 5. The serve is not hit hard, but isn't a lay up either. * 6. You can't hit the cup on a serve. If you do your opponent gets a point and you drink. * 7. A point is not in play until the cup is hit, then the point is considered "live". * 8. Each time your cup is hit, counts as one drink. Regardless of who wins the point, everyone drinks according to the number of times their cup was hit. * 9. When sunk on, you are allowed to throw the ball back and try to sink your opponents cup. No points are given for a sink on a throwback, but the other player drinks. If you do sink him on the throw back, he then gets to attempt to throw it back in your cup. This keeps going until someone misses. If you are losing and get sunk on game point and you sink the throw back, your opponent loses the point and the game continues. * 10. Idiots rule = sloppy play = lose point and drink a full cup. |

Two in one cup used to end the game [/ QUOTE ] This is a bad rule IMO Matt. The purpose of the game is to get [censored] up. It is very hard to do this when you are [censored] up. Less cup making means less drinking which means less getting [censored] up. |
Re: Beer Pong Poll
I don't know about you guys but where I'm from the feeling towards people who "stack" empty cups ranges from contempt to outright hatred.

There really isn't any defense against this. |

Re: Beer Pong Poll
Wow, 10-cup is for girlie-men. Too much square-footage to aim at. This best variation of this game is 13-cup. One solo cup in the middle, two triangles of six. Must hit the middle cup first, and rerack once six remain.

Re: Beer Pong Poll
I hope astro bans anyone that re-racks at the shooter's option.

Re: Beer Pong Poll
re-racks (in a 10 cup game) at 6-4-3-2
6, make a triangle (1-2-3) 4, you can ask for cock and balls (1-1-2), or vagina (1-2-1) 3, triangle (1-2) 2, line (1-1) Edit-lets say you have 7 cups, and you make 2, you'll have 5 left. you'll get the balls back for making your 2 shots. if you fail to make a cup on the 2nd attempt, you lose your chance for a re-rack (until you get to 4) |
Re: Beer Pong Poll

Re: Beer Pong Poll
Playing with 10 cups we can't re-rack until there are 4 cups left.

Re: Beer Pong Poll
BTW in a 10 cup game, I play with 2 or 3 re-racks taken at any time.
