• Delete. A drinking game that was invented in "the summer of 2005". Article written by "a charter member". Vanity. ManoaChild 05:51, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Meets several criteria for deletion: nonencyclopedic, not notable, vanity. Tobycat 06:07, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Sorry Guys, I mean no Offence. I thought this might be a touchy subject. I honestly am not just placing this on the web for myself. My group of friends LOVES this game. It is actually quite fun. You should try it. Before I posted this article, I looked at Wikipedia's drinking games article. I thought our game would be a good contribution to the listing but I am not the expert, this is my first addition to Wikipedia. I do not want to do anything to compromise the integrity of the best open-source website on the internet. When I wrote the article, I considered the way it should be presented. Since it is a drinking game, I thought humor would be a good way to render the subject matter into an enjoyable article. I am open to suggestions and am willing to remove names since you guys main complaint about the page is believe that it exist just because I am a vain person. Which I really am not. :Buphoff 07:01, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment. Please understand that "vanity" is not accusing you of being vain. It's just a comment that several elements of the article seem to be self promoting, if not of yourself, then of your group. In any case, even if written in a more neutral fashion, the article would still fail the notability test and would probably qualify as original research, which is not permitted. Don't feel bad, and don't let this chase you away. If you look around, I guarantee that you will find something that you contribute to. ManoaChild 09:39, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
• Weak Keep. Userfy everything (esp. the T-shirts) except the rules, clean those up a little, and I would say that it is a valid game. A little silly and a little dangerous, but valid nonetheless. Eldereft 08:52, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete; nn, vanity, ne; perhaps {{userfy}}? Lectonar 10:59, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete vanity, not notable. Fun to read, but not Wikipedia-material. KevinGovaerts 11:25:28, 2005-08-05 (UTC)
• Delete with prejudice. -R. fiend 12:40, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete article and images: vanity, non-notable, neologism, original research, unverifiable, etc. --Carnildo 19:57, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, though the article is fun to read. But Wikipedia is NOT advertizing space. — Stevey7788 (talk) 20:19, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as per above. --jonasaurus 21:32, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per above. -Splash 23:25, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
• Weak keep - It's a drinking game. Drinking games links to the rules of other drinking games, so keep it, after removing all the vanity stuff, pointless graphics and attempts to sell T-shirts Tonywalton 23:37, 6 August 2005 (UTC)
• Weak Delete Interesting article, but is original reasearch and not notable. Maybe it could be transwikied somewhere? --Apyule 07:55, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, the precedent set by keeping this would be a poor one. Paul 17:28, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete XXXXX pointless Super Saiyan Plough 06:49, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
