So, on Tuesday of this week, :iconohmethias: and I played a little game called "Cards Against Humanity" over lunch. What is this game? Well, let's get 1D4chan to explain:

You know how, when you play Apples to Apples, the goal quickly changes from "Play the funniest combo" to "Play the most terrifyingly offensive combo"? That's Cards Against Humanity. It's specifically set up to be as offensive as possible, like a good episode of South Park, but pulls it off well enough to come across as hilarious, instead of morbid.

A great game to play with college dorm-mates, erudite friends, polite society, your grandmother, and anyone else over the age of 18. You will never look and anyone you play with the same way again.</i>

For the record, 1D4chan is a wiki built mainly from /tg/, 4chan's Tabletop Games board.

Having played this almost-certainly Chaotic Evil game, and then witnessed Team Four Star (And Linkara and Kirbopher) play it on Youtube, I have come to the decision that this is a sick kind of awesome that must be played out.

Now, why am I bringing this up, then? Because there is an online version which can be found here: www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&…

Step One: Skype is helpful. While not required, as the games to feature in-game text chat, part of the fun of this game is hearing the reactions to the vile combinations of cards your fellow players come up with. SO get on Skype and search me, my name n there is Dan Gleeson, and my avatar is basically the same as it is on here.

Step Two: Servers. CLick that link above, and you'll be able to see three servers, all named after potential "Answer" cards in the game. CLick the middle one, "Falcon with a box on its head".

Step Three: Information and such. Be sure to take note of what known issues there are. THey shouldn't hinder you too much. Once you've read that, scroll down and click "Take me to the game".

Step Four: Look for "Arcan's Game." Once you have found it, click "Join Game".

Step Five: Password. THere will be a password, so people can't join uninvited. I will post the password in the Instant Messager of the Skype call, and Note it to anyone who doesn't have Skype. Once you've entered that, you should be in. First to score 15 points is the winner.

Step Six: Try to be punctual. You are on a time limit for your picks. If you take too long, the game will skip you.

Step Seven: If you are offended by one of your cards... Good! There's a good chance it will draw the same reaction from everyone else, so play it at the next good opportunity.

And finally, the packs I will be adding to the game:

Originals: First Version, Second Version, Third Version, That Guy With the Glasses
Expansions: The First Expansion, the Second Expansion, the Third Expansion, the Fourth Expansion, The Box Expansion, Holiday Bullshit 2013
Customs: Admin's Picks, Very Serious, Ridiculously Stupid, Derps against Humanity, /tg/.
Blanks: Twenty Blank white cards. Play one of these, and type whatever you want on it. This can create some hilarity, but if you're not a fantastic comedian, it may fall flat, so don't waste them.

I will remove any of these that don't work out.

So if I wanted to jump in a game with y'all and have a lol or two, would I have to add you to my Skype contact list or is it just preferable?
