  • PvPGN (Player vs Player Gaming Network) is a free and open source software project offering emulation of various gaming network servers. It is published under the GPL and based upon bnetd. PvPGN was a recommended project of the month in the August 2005 issue of Linux+ magazine.
    It currently supports most features of all Battle.net clients (Diablo, Diablo II, Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, StarCraft, StarCraft: Brood War, Warcraft II: Battle.net Edition, Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne). It also offers basic support for Westwood Online clients (Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2, Command & Conquer: Yuri's Revenge). Westwood Online support is still very experimental.

Black or Red

Black or Red is a Drinking game played with Cards

What you will need to play

  • 2 or more people (the more players the better)
  • A deck of cards

How to play the game
Everyone will sit at a table and you will start the game clockwise.  First person picks either black or red.  If they choose the right color they pick who ever they want to drink; if they get it wrong they have to drink.

If player gets the color right three times in a row they can make up a rule; (For example: you can’t point, or you can’t say drink).  Player continues until they get the color wrong and it goes to the next person and so on.  Same rules apply to everyone.

Beat The Barman

Beat the Barman is a Drinking game

What you need to play

  • A semi quiet bar with seats up next to the bar.
  • A bunch of money 200+ in bills

How to play the game
You order a shot and pay with a banknote that will require the barman to get you change. You must have your drink finished by the time he returns. Then order anther one. continue until the bar closes (you win), you get kicked out, you run out of money, you puke, the bar tender returns with your money before you are done your shot.

I have never completed this game successfully but I have managed to spend $140 in 45 mins, I don’t remember how the rest of the night went.
