New article about a drinking game somebody made up. No evidence this is notable by WIkipedia standards. Jayron32 05:24, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article should be allowed to remain for a few reasons. One, both beer pong and flip cup were invented in similar fashion and released to the public for a larger pool of drinking games to be played by the public. This drinking game is an off shoot of both and therefore is legitimate as an Encyclopedia Entry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Timdn720 (talk • contribs) 05:32, 23 August 2010 (UTC) — Timdn720 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

I concur with "Timdn720". This is a legitimate entry based on the scope and classification of the rules of the game. Users will find this information helpful and informative. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chrisccorry (talk • contribs) 05:47, 23 August 2010 (UTC) This template must be substituted.[reply]

Delete Absolutely useless entry about a non-notable drinking game concocted by a couple of kids who hang out on Wikipedia. Sorry, not a good enough reason to have an article about it just because of two Wikipedia users who like to waste their time with this nonsense. Laval (talk) 07:10, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - yet another game made up by bored students, which will be forgotten about by Christmas. Can have an article if it ever gains significant coverage in independent reliable sources, which I be prepared to bet my life savings against -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:04, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Delete - Please. --Steven J. Anderson (talk) 08:25, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete I can't even find the slighest reference to it online and have never heard of it. Maybe there is a drinking game forum or blog it can gain popularity in.--NortyNort (Holla) 11:39, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Unlike beer pong and flip cup, this made-up hybrid isn't notable, and I'm not be1tting that it ever will be. Mandsford 12:38, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as Wikipedia is not for things made up one day. I know a drinking game too, but don't create an article for it. (User:Armbrust/The Snooker Drinking Game). Armbrust ^Talk _Contribs 13:43, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
