Musical Collasping Chairs-

10 chairs, 11 people. One is purposly fubar and falls, pinching and folding on purpose. Repeat. Last one to get a chair when it's down to two people, wins!...(and loses)...

How about looking directly at the sun! Golly, wouldn't that be dangerous!

P.S. Where'd SED go?

I love it. I always get crappy swag.

Greatest idea-Safety equipment dueling: fire extinguishers, defibrillators, you name it. Maybe we could even get some sodium pentathol and some syringes and let people with dirty little secrets go at it.

defibrillators roulett......

Desert Duck · Post by **Desert Duck** » Fri Apr 07, 2006 6:29 pm

OOHHH! We could have a gambling den! Cards, dice, roulette... at the losing (or winning) end would be some form of harm (or the opportunity to administer?) Maybe there would be a series of bets, one to figure out what device, who administers, and finally if you are the target. If you win and lose, you could have to shock yourself, something like that.

Like that.... I'll bring some Playa money

How about a real fire-related campout in a caldera?
Will the lava lake rise and chase everyone out and burn the art or sit there below us and entertain?

I think I have found two words that have made more excited than any other word pairing:

fireball trebuchet

No further explanation is required.

It's been done: U-hurl camp '98. Pictures to follow.

It was as great as you can imagine, by the way.

Don't care. I'll still bring the trebuchet.

Two words:
Bungee.
Pinata.

Howzabout HUMAN fireball trebuchet? Triple points for landing beyond the trash fence. Mixed with skeet to satiate those pining for the Shooting Gallery.

SED · Post by **SED** » Tue Apr 11, 2006 6:20 pm

Hey, how about bungee pungee?

After takiing the pinata treatment, participants can hurtle down toward shit-smeared bamboo skewers.

My Trebuchet is only good for about 10-20 lbs. max. Gimme time tho....

Desert Duck · Post by **Desert Duck** » Tue Apr 11, 2006 9:00 pm

Okay, so make it fireball trebuchet catch!!

Zulegoona · Post by **Zulegoona** » Tue Apr 11, 2006 9:05 pm

maybe if you wrap a 2 foot diameter ball of barbed wire with rages and soak it in gas then light it, it would be under 10 pounds and would still be a challenge to catch

The CO · Post by **The CO** » Tue Apr 11, 2006 9:15 pm

Sure, my first idea was medicine ball catch. Lighting that on fire is easy.

I always thought a game of 'Assassins' might be fun. You show up to a camp, sign up and write down your camp intersection plus two other hangouts and get a Polaroid taken of yourself. Then, you're given the notes about somebody else along with their picture, and it's on.

When you find the other person, surprise them and take their picture, and then get their polaroid and go find that person, and so on.

capjbadger · Post by **capjbadger** » Thu Apr 13, 2006 2:02 pm

I love that game. Steve Jackson games came out with something very similar called "Killer". A citywide game of it would freakin rock! See who's left "alive" by the end of the week.

hmmm.... Who would want to play? Might have to start a thread for this is people sound interested.

Desert Duck · Post by **Desert Duck** » Sat Apr 15, 2006 12:38 am

Okay, where's the assassin thread? I've got my polaroid.

On another note,we were discussing bringing a keg in the "Bar" and realized we could make something like that VERY dangerous. I've got a 25 gal (100#) propane tank, and can get a 30 k btu burner pretty easily. So, we put the burner under a full keg of cheap beer. Like that. Actually there were a few ways to blow up a keg of beer, I kinda like the natural way, but there's no guarantee you'd get the desired wall o' foam effect. So, we got the keg on the burner, let it get nice and hot, then take turns hitting it with aluminum bats. heh.

Could be fun. Depends on how you surprise them.
