One of the things I enjoy about WAM are games. Basically, games of luck or skill with a fun forfeit. I don't know why, exactly. Maybe it's the fact that a player has a chance to save themselves but fails? Whatever the reason, it's one of my things. The current popularity of games like "Water War" is pretty awesome to me.
I was wondering if anyone had any great stories or fun WAM games to share. I'll start with a story of my own.
When I was in university, I dated this girl we'll call Kate. Kate had a pretty playful mischievous side, which is something I find super hot. She liked to start waterfights with these little spray bottles she kept. I liked to see her wet, so the tame waterfights got bigger and became one of our "things". One lazy, cold winter day we talking about wanting sun and summer, and we ended up writing up a bunch of rules to a game we called "Snakes and Ladders and Water". Unfortunately, we both felt it needed more than just two players and failing to find anyone, we gave up on it. Broke up a few months later when it turned out Kate was actually a total nutcase.
I'm not sure if this is a "story," per se, but last month I made a messy dice game and gave it to Ariel and MyPerogative to play (as a custom). It came out really well!
Several years ago, Ariel at WamBabes did a scene where she was gunging a girl who had to try to guess the color of the gunge-- and when she actually guessed right, Ariel picked up a different bucket instead so that she still got it wrong.
The consensus reaction here was that Ariel should have taken the gunge for the ones she guessed right, so they did the scene again on down the line, where there were two correct guesses out of six. This picture came from that scene:
Dont_Panic : I read your thread when you first posted it and it's actually part of what got me thinking about games again. I've never bought a custom, but if I did get one, I imagine it would be a game with lots of rules.
Brown Apples: That little pic of the water helmet hat thing, reminds me of a little water gun I saw once. You loaded it with a little water balloon and essentially played Russian Roulette with it.
I've come up with some messy games before, but I haven't been able to playtest them, since I don't really have anyone to play against.
A simple one was Pie Poker, for 3 or more players: straight-up 5-card draw, highest hand pies the lowest hand in any manner desired. To make it more interesting, the person with the high hand in the previous hand is ineligible to be the high hand in the current hand, and similarly lowest hand previous is ineligible to be the lowest hand currently. Note how in a 3-player game this could lead to someone pieing themselves.

I have to agree, those are my two favorite vids she has ever made
