Sutherland rules

There often comes a time in any competitive sport, game or pastime where the rules are mysteriously changed to favour one participant. This participant will convince all his or her opponents that these are the commonly accepted and legitimate rules regardless of available published regulations which are to hand and which they seem to contradict.

The person asserting these revised rules will be strongly advantaged and will almost invariably win as a result of these rules. These are Sutherland Rules.

overby rules the world

Grafitti initiated in the 1960's in which the name of a high school classmate of one of the grafitti artists was spread far and wide on walls throughout the world, in India, England, Vietnam, and Mexico and many other countries the phrase "overby rules the world" was repeated and repeated over and over again as the one classmate had told the other "I will make your name well known far and wide" and he could not tell a lie.
Mr X - I know, let's write overby rules the world on each one of the ceramic tiles in that entire bathroom!
Mr Y - But there are probably over a thousand tiles!
Mr. X - All the more likely to make a favorable impression! Mr. Y - Let's get started!

Australian Rules Football

The manliest of games on earth.
Australian Rules Football is manlier than American Football because it requires athletic ability (fat blokes can't stand in a line and grope one another all game).

Australian Rules Football is manlier than Rugby because you need skills other than passing a ball down a line while running forward.

Rex Rules

A modified set of table-tennis rules, originating from the Rex Bar.

Rule modifications include, but are not limited to:

* Drink any time the score is tied
* Ball is in play off any surface except the ground.
* Failing to touch an in-play ball with your paddle is 2 points for the opponent, unless the hit was done by a 2-handed backhand, in which case it is only 1 point.
* Window washing, while legal, is highly frowned upon due to the awkward and silly position one must take on to perform the move.
* Any ball that passes thru the area between the net and the net post, and successfully lands on the table is an automatic game winner
* Rules modifications must be approved by the founding Rex Committee members, and must have unanimous votes
* All serves must start with the ball in the palm of your hand and must rise at least 6 inches above the palm before being hit. If this does not happen, there is actually no penalty besides constant ridicule and harassment from your opponents and onlookers.
* Rope-a-doping is considered any move where you opponent messes up and you don't, all that needs to be said is "rope-a-dope" and you have successfully performed the move.
* Any time a 2 pointer results in new leaders, the word "rawdge" must be uttered, otherwise it is only 1 point.
* A dribbler is when the ball hits the net and barely makes it to the opponents side of the table. While technically a 2 point shot, it is under review by the Committee and is considered general slop.
"Serving: 4 to 5. Oh yeah, I hit a slam and you missed, now its 6-5. #rawdge."
"What you talking about dude? It's 5-5 now."
"Nah, brah, this is Rex Rules!"
