regulator: the game
Description: some crazy gangsta poker game with uno (should be revised by the inventors – bran / romo / will)
Items required: deck of uno cards, gangsta music (in background), regulator chips (anything to represent a regulator chip – poker chips, Risk pieces, spare change etc.)
Number of people to play: 2 minimum, at least 4 recommended
Card types:
- number cards – any regular color card with numbers from 0 to 9
- Regulator cards (Skip) – drops a player out of the round – “regulated”
- power cards – any other action card other than Skip
- Change 2 (Draw 2) – change any cards on the flop 2 times
- Change 4 (Wild Draw 4) – change any cards on the flop 4 times
- Switcheroo (Reverse) – switch 1 card with any other player
- Color Change (Wild) – change color of any card
Rules:
- dealer deals 5 cards to each player
- player chooses 2 cards to play, only number cards can be played, if there’s not enough number cards to be played, player may receive more cards until hand contains 2 number cards
- if any player has regulator cards in their hands, they must take them out and display them, when all regulator cards has been shown, players must regulate another player in the order of ROY G BIV, each player can only regulate one other player, even if multiple regulators are displayed; players with same color regulators cannot regulate each other
- all remaining players now must show their hand, and dealer will deal the flop (3 cards)
- each players may now play all their power cards in order
- player with the highest hand wins
- player earns the “Regulator” title when 3 regulator chips has been won
Tips:
- when regulating other players, comment with gangsta talk for bonus fun
- it’s possible make allies when regulating and playing to prevent someone to become the Regulator, but watch out for people like Dave
- you don’t have to play all the Power cards in hand, only ones to your advantage, or trix other players
- Switcheroos are most powerful cards when played at the end, Dealer + switcheroo cards = win
- as exciting as the game is, players should refrain from commenting other player’s moves
- more to come (in the comments probably)
i think we played for 3+ hrs on friday night, and bran won Dual Regulator title followed by Regulators me and romo, while will and dave remained as thugs
apparently saturday was some sort of international zombie walk day? i was getting burned on kits beach in the afternoon and then whole bunch of them paraded through the beach, and then some of them came back after and chilled on the beach
and then yesterday i did the grouse grind with my gf and bran (stupid romo was too tired, we all slept at 4 you know), and we did it in about 1 hr 20 min – 1:22:00.2 / 1:24:37.7, and then we ate benkei ramen, and bran ate like a monster, but he didn’t drink any soup! wth wasted ;/
the soup is good, but only in the same bite as some ramen. i can’t drink that stuff straight up. i should get double extra noodles… to go with my double regulator status… thug bitches.
you da ho.. you better be happy with ur default wins from andy.
woulda had regulator status.. or the “R-R-R-REGULATOR!” title if Gambl0r didn’t bite you in the anus that last round.
*triple regulator status
default wins my ass. i went from rags to riches, bitches.
yeah that fuckin’ hayta Gambl0r came in and showed me what’s up.
MOWWNNNNUUUUPPPPP
Gamblor always wins, it doesn’t matter if you’re quadruple triple regulator status or rapping Regulate while you play
