Drinking

Beer Pong

Classic beer pong in a knockout bracket, where cups left can rescue one quarter-final loser.

Players

Pick representatives as needed. Cowie plays on his own.

Format

All six sides play a quarter-final. The quarter-final loser with the most cups left comes back as the semi-final wildcard. Max length per game 5 minutes.

Scoring

Record each side's cups left across its matches. That cups-left total is what the team wins as tournament points; use final placing to break any ties.

Forfeit

The team with the fewest cups obtained takes a shot. The player or team with the most cups gives one out.

Cowie rule

Cowie plays solo.

Fixtures

Matchups

Beer Pong uses the same six-side bracket shape as 501, but the wildcard is earned by the quarter-final loser with the most cups left.
