The official beerdie rules of Beernerd tournaments


Scoring Plays:

๐Ÿงผ Clean points:

Clean points are valued at 1 point.

๐Ÿˆ Field Goals:

Field goals are valued at 1 point.

๐Ÿ—ฟ Dinks:

Dinks are valued at 2 points. If caught, nothing.

๐Ÿ’ฆ Sinks:

Sinks are valued at 3 points. If the die happens to bounce out, it does not matter โ€” 3 points are awarded.

โšฝ๏ธ Fifa:

Fifas are always 1 point, no matter the ladder state. If the defending team fifas the die back onto the table, nothing happens and the die is dead.

๐Ÿšจ THIGHS ARE NOT ALLOWED ๐Ÿšจ ๐Ÿšจ YOU CANNOT WIN ON A FIFA ๐Ÿšจ

Game Play:

โฎ๏ธ Switch Sides

Switch sides when the total score between the two teams is equal to 11.

โฎ๏ธ Fill n' Kill

A team must kill when the opposing team gets 6 points. Game cannot resume unless the drinks are finished. Each team must kill when the game is over, regardless of winning team. Spilling more than 30% of drink will result in a refill.

๐ŸŽฅ Video Replay

Each team gets one video replay challenge per game. A challenge can be requested when teams disagree and the ref/statter rules against your team. If the challenge is successful, you will be allowed to request another one.

๐Ÿค Line

If the die lands on the line, the toss will be counted as short. It will be self regulated by the players, however, in the case where it cannot be agreed upon, the ref/statter will break the tie.

๐Ÿ“ Height

Height is a gentleman's rule. If the defending team calls height before the die hits the table, the call should be respected. In the event of disagreement, tie goes to the statter. If statter has no opinion, re-toss. Height is not reviewable by replay.

#๏ธโƒฃ Winning Score:

We play first to 11, with the exception of win by 2.

๐Ÿงฎ Win by 2:

The team to first reach 11 will win, however, the final score must be won by 2. This allows for match play and scores to go over 11.

๐Ÿ‘™ Nudies

In the event you self sink, the defensive team must run a naked lap. In the event of losing 11-0, the losing team must run a naked lap. Refusal of nudie is 2 shotguns per teammate (4 shotguns total).

๐ŸŽฒ Die Back:

There will be NO DIE BACK in the official tournament.

๐Ÿ” Redemption Die:

There will be NO REDEMPTION DIE in the official tournament.

Defensive Plays:

๐Ÿค› Bobbles

Only 1 bobble is allowed per player, per toss. Meaning, you are only allowed to bump the die once and make an attempt at a catch. You may bobble it to your teammate and your teammate may then bobble, but on the next attempt it must be a catch. Anything else will result in a drop.

๐Ÿง Picks

Die is a contact sport. Full contact is allowed behind the cup line. If there is contact past the cup line (body extends past the near edge of the cup) it will result in no point for the offense. Pick is challengeable by replay.

โšฝ๏ธ Fifa

We play ladders. You must increment the number of volleys based on the number of fifa points you have. Example: If you have 1 fifa point you must have 2 volleys before catching the die


Happy hucking :)
