Birthday Crisis

Help!

So my birthday is next week (yay me!) and since I haven't had a birthdayparty in like 4 years, I want to do something fun. Please help me think of some fun games (that don't take too long and can be played by more or less 15 people).

I'd be ever so grateful!

Hm. Here's one. Requires that the gender distribution is equal, with either one less guy, or one less girl.

Basically, you set up a circle of chairs; and all the guys sit in them. A girl stands behind each guy, and one girl stands behind an empty chair. The girls must be looking down; they can't look at the girl with the empty chair. By contrast, all the guys must keep their eyes riveted on this girl.

The girl with the empty chair winks at one of the guys, and it is then his duty to run as quickly as possible to the empty chair. The girl standing behind him must attempt to hold him back. If she is unsuccessful, she becomes the Girl With The Empty Chair.

As I remember, there is no set win condition. You just go until you're all bored (long time).

Have fun!

oooh good one! I'll make a note of that

Good game Teele

Hmm, how about the game where you write everyones name on a post-it note and then hand them out randomly. The person isn't allowed to look and has to stick the note to their forehead so they can't see whose name it is. Then other people have to try and give hints to whose name it is. It can be celebrties or people you know... can make for some hilarious impressions.

**due to your age, and my ignorance of drinking age laws in Amsterdam, I've replaced the word "beer" with the word "Pepsi."**

you could play "Don't forget the lyrics."

you download a bunch of well known songs onto your ipod, or just hook your comp up to some decent speakers and play mp3s or cd's with well known songs, getting everyone to sing along...really loudly... if (when) people start humming, singing below the pre-specified volume, mumbling the words, using incorrect lyrics, or drop out altogether you point at them (it's important that you keep singing, though, if you stop you may be disqualified too). Once a blunder has been spotted by two people (two fingers are pointing at you) then you are "out" and must spend the rest of the song downing your **pepsi**. People who are "out" can no longer sing but can still point out the blunders of those still in play. The process continues until there is just one man standing, that person is "The Winner." The Winner chooses two of the losers to do a keg (filled with Pepsi.) stand. A new song is chosen, people get new **pepsis** and the process is started all over again. Repeat until unconscious.

Jade, that game sounds nice, the only problem being is that not many of my friends actually know each other. So we'd have to go for celebs, which I find dificult cause I don't know them

Flux, I love your game! I can imagine it being really funny And ehm, with 16 we're alowed beer, 18 and up is alowed to drink spirits. If I'd ever come to the US, it would be after my 21st birthday. I think the not-drinking-under-21 rule is kind of silly. So no Pepsi for us It will quite likely be beer or something a lot stronger

I've got a few games, none of which are befitting of a lady Anyhow, since the post was 6 days ago, and you said it would be a week, allow me to congratulate you in advance.

Gefeliciteerd Heerlijk toch, verjaardag in de vakantie?
