[edit]

"The recipient has to answer with "F**k Off"." Since you can't pronounce F**k Off, i suppose it's supposed to be "Fuck Off"? This is wikipedia, just because it's servers are located in the USA doesn't mean it's illegal to use the term fuck. Uh. "Look at me, I'm so cool, I said a swear word that I wasn't supposed to say! Oh noes!". Ran4 05:22, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article has been moved following this AFD debate. Sjakkalle (Check!) 09:36, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The tone of this article blatantly needs fixing. It should be obvious. Thinboy00 talk/contribs 16:53, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Some issues

[edit]

This whole group of drinking game articles are some of the poorest sourced, most poorly worded, messiest articles I have read on Wikipedia. I am not suggesting they be deleted but there must be some sources for these games as I know they exist.

Someone went through a lot of trouble to make a nice little template and info box for these games, but the articles are lacking in sources and sometimes contain tone issues as noted above. Normally I don't like to cop out and say "Somebody else better clean this up," but I wouldn't even know where to start. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.81.123.153 (talk) 09:37, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sources / Style / Content

[edit]

There are perhaps two aspects to articles on these games: their rules and their history. As for the rules, formal sources often do not exist, or at least are not traceable, since the rules have evolved to a large degree through custom. It would certainly be interesting to outline the origins of the games however.

The articles are intended to be instructive and therefore follow a simple chronological structure with some helpful repetition. Bawdy humour (added according to players' taste) is an intrinsic ingredient of an enjoyable game and should rightly feature in their explanation.

". Replacing the roman numerals with other humorous or explicit phrases can make the game more interesting (e.g. replace I with "No", V with "Daddy" and X with "Don't touch me!")" 'bawdy', well, that's one word for it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.108.226.236 (talk) 21:22, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I question the relevance of criticism from "wiki-warriors" as to the form and substance of other enthusiasts' contributions, unless such contributions are actually gratuitously offensive or trivial. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MJB3AT (talkcontribs) 00:58, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re-write

[edit]

Ok, I love playing this game so I've re-written the article completely; shortening it, removing spurious content and simplifying the rules. There may be a few too many bullet points though! Please edit as you see fit. Caseykcole (talk) 22:53, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
