So various people at work are at a bit of a loss every other Friday afternoon now, and I decided to help fill that gap. I nabbed an empty conference room at about the right time and brought in the Caramel Onions gear.
Only one of the people turned up (everybody else was elsewhere or had something else to do) so we play-tested a two-person variant of Cards Against Humanity.
Rules:
Both players get a reasonably sized hand of white cards. (We went with 8.)
A black card is turned up.
In case of a regular card, both players select 2 candidates. (In case of a Pick 2, house rules determine whether 1 or 2 pairs are played; we went with 1.)
Players look over the other party's candidates, and decide between them whose is best.
In case of a draw, a playoff takes place, by turning up a new black card (there can be more than one playoff with any given set).
We played with the TSA rules, but neither of us called an opt-out, though at various points we did invoke each other's managers. We also (in the spirit of the usual wine-and-beer party) played by the BYOB rules, in this case a bottle of sweet ruby port from Trader Joe's.
Hilarity ensued. I may have pulled something laughing. There are plans to do this again.
