The International Drinking Rules are rules that can be applied to most drinking games and casual conversation if the need arises. All penalties are that you must consume two digits (i.e. place two digits against the top of the beverage; this is the amount you must consume).

• The word 'Drink', or any word with 'Drink' inside it, must not be spoken.
• There is to be no pointing during the game. Elbows are acceptable.
• Ungentlemanly conduct is prohibited (i.e. No swearing, openly belching, etc).
• Alcoholic beverages must be kept at least one thumbs-length away from the edge of the table. This is known as the safety area.
• Beverages must only be consumed with one's left hand, if you are right handed, and vice-versa. (Unless rule of Time Keeper is in play)
• If (god forbid) you're part of the Hockey club, you must drink double per penalty (four digits,) for the pure fact that ski club is better than Hockey. Don't forget it.

Golf Balls

The golf ball is a powerful tool, if a golf ball is dropped into your beverage you must consume the entirety of your beverage. This includes bottled beverages, if the golf ball is tapped on the top of your bottle, you must still consume your whole beverage. Once you have been golf balled the golf ball now belongs to you.

To protect your beverage have a hand span over the top if not you are vulnerable!

You may only golf ball a person whilst the beverage is in their hand.

These rules will be enforced by your committee and advanced players

A fundamentally simple game but one people get screwed over by, time and time again. If someone asks you to hold a drink or a drink is passed into your hand and you do not say "not out" then you must consume the entire contents of whatever is in your hand. Assuming it is alcoholic. A classic example of a true hero playing this game is James Surridge. A boy born with two livers and a sexual appetite that leaves girls walking like penguins for days, he is no stranger to How's that. James made his name downing two Pyrex jugs filled with a concoction of vodka, cider, beer and more vodka and then passing out cold shortly after. He was found 4 days later, still hungover. Make sure you don't forget the rule.

Freshers must do everything asked of them by the committee to gain respect and social standing. We were all freshers once so take solitude and momentary respite in the fact that at some point we too had to do things no human ever should.... Ok, maybe not that extreme but you will feel the brunt of the committee's carrot.

If you see the legend that is "Tom the Vom" buy him a drink to help him on his quest to rid the demon from his stomach. That is of course if you're still standing, he has been know to make a girl orgasm, just by looking at them. You don't know how lucky you are to have met him. My (Will Bailey) life idol.

If you see Henry with a crazed look in his eye then its probably best to run. The infamous drinks bully will be sure to make you down whatever you have and as he is president, there is no arguing!
