In dire need of an a name for our soon to be released event site our team is prepared to take desperate measures.

Enter Drunkgle. A simple mash-up of Boggle and Drunkardry!

We’ll let you know how successful our efforts are in posts to come, but for now I’ll share with you the rules.

Drunkgle Rulez (v0.5):
Normal boggle rules apply for any english word.

The following Drunkgle rules are as follows for any other word.

Word Validation:
If a majority of players agree a Drunkgle word is a plausible domain name the word will be awarded a score. Tie votes do not award points.

Word Score:
3-4 Character words are worth 1 point.
5-6 Character words are worth 5 points
7-9 Character words are worth 1 point
10+ Character words: drink.

Word Score Multipliers:
1. The total word score is multiplied by the number of people that have also recorded a drunkgle word.
2. If a drunkgle word is unregistered as a .com or .us the domain is multiplied by 10 points.

Drinking Rules:
Each round the point winner and loser each get to impose a drink on any player at the table.
