The Iron Chef Drinking Game (Jack's Brain version)
This is my personal version of The Iron Chef Drinking Game plagiarized from The Iron Chef Drinking Experience. Basically I threw out some of the rules that were just about drinking for things that were guaranteed to happen and replaced them with rules for things that could possibly happen quite often and subjective rules so you have something to argue about. (I also threw out the rules for commercials. You have to stop drinking sometime.)
It helps to have a nondrinking person ("The Chairman") who can make decisions on the more subjective rules and pay attention and let you know when to drink when you become too inebriated to pay attention yourself. (This person can also double as the designated driver if you plan on going anywhere in the next couple of hours.) To make that all worthwhile "The Chairman" has the power to "make up" a rule: should "The Chairman" feel that something deserves a drink (like if something incredibly stupid happens, or the same thing keeps happening often enough to merit a rule, or if you otherwise can't find a reason to drink), "The Chairman" can direct everyone to
drink for it.
On to the rules.

Winner
Whoever drank the most, didn't get sick, and acts the least like an ass wins. It's subjective so "The Chairman" gets to make the call.
P.S.
Don't drink and drive. It's stupid and drunk drivers have a habit of killing everyone but themselves. Wherever you're going can't be worth the possibility of killing someone.
