Very creative but I doubt it’ll catch on because of all the extra material and prep needed.
Beer pong only requires a table, a ping pong ball, and red cups, two of which are practically already guaranteed to be available at any party.
Battleshots only requires two pizza boxes, a sharpie, and a bunch of shot glasses, all of which are also generally on hand, at least later into the party
You forgot the ability to draw a bunch of straight lines, which is probably not that common at a party…
They don't really need to be that straight, and you can always use a square liquor bottle as a straight edge. Somebody brought a bottle of jack
If you have two pizza boxes, you can just use them to line up each other
But will you think of that when you're drunk, or will you default to the Jack Daniels?
You can just play it in non-Euclidean space, that would explain lack of straight lines
On hand? Household sharpies disappear a day after purchase.
It's why I stopped buying them in packs. I no longer lose 5 at a time.
Ah, I use them at work, and then they come home in my pocket, so I tend to have them everywhere
Solo should just start packing pre-printed tablecloths with their cups
We used to do it where we would set up two big squares of cups filled with beer, and the shots were mixed in amongst the cups. So you could see the other side, just didn't know where the shots were. So we were still just throwing balls, but trying to hit the ships. But we also had multiple people on each team because a 30 rack and a fifth for each side is way too much for a single person.
Well you could just have the normal board game but every time you your battle ships get hit you pour a shot glass and hand it to your opponent
