Nope, never played it. How do you play?

Duddun · 11-24-2002, 12:21 PM

hmmm...Never heard of it, I like Egyptian Ratscrew(some people call it Egyptian War)

It's kinda hard to explain, and I don't feel like thinking. I might try to expain it later.

Duddun · 11-28-2002, 01:27 PM

Uh, explain it or we can't have played it! Pwease!

Okay, you take a few decks of cards (w/ different backs) and take out the face cards. Everyone has there own deck. You have a ten card blitz pile (face up, I think) and four cards set out face up in front of you. When the game starts, you start going through the remainder of the deck looking at every third card. If you get an ace, you put it out in the middle, then if you or someone else gets a two of the same suit, they can put it out on the ace etc etc. (You can use the cards in front of you and the cards in your blitz pile. When you use one of the four cards in front of you, you can replace it w/ a card from your blitz pile) The object is to get rid of your blitz pile, and when you do, you yell blitz and the game is over. You separate the cards in the middle back into their decks, and each person gets a point for every card they have out there. Then you subtract two points for every card left in your blitz pile and the person w/ the highest score wins. I hope that makes sense...

You lost me when I saw how long it was and knew it was a hard game, I read it though and I just got more confused

Now I know why you didn't want to explain it.

Khadrane · 11-30-2002, 09:40 PM

There is a site here if you really want to learn how to play.

Duddun · 11-30-2002, 09:41 PM

Ok, Thanks

I never got to post here but wanted to, so here I am.

We played spoons when I was a kid but it was called pig and we put our finger next to our nose instead of having spoons. When i was older we played actual spoons as a drinking game (not a good idea for lightweights

). We also played Killer when I was young.
I love Spades, Seven-card no-peek, a Finnish game called Raystee Seyska (I know that's spelled wrong, but that's how it's pronounced), and a very complicated Uno-like game called Mao (which we often played as a drinking game, or just played when we were drinking, which made it get very cutthroat).

Dice games: Rochester or three-man, anyone? I actually never got the full hang of these, again their being complicated drinking games, or at least that's how my friends played them.

Oh, yeah, and we played B.S. when I was young, but it was called I Doubt It. And we also played a game called Knock Your Neighbor.
