Event Description
Participants are randomly grouped into tables of 6 and play a drinking game to 1000 points. The player with the lowest score is eliminated from the tournament. After each round -- when every table has finished -- then a secret vote is called to eliminate approximately one more person per table. The exact number of people eliminated by vote is determined by the number of players left: if there were 60 players in the last round, then 10 are eliminated by score, and 12 must be eliminated by vote in order to have 48 people left, which would fit into groups of 6.
Judging
Elimination is based on scores from games and votes from players.
Prizes
Cold hard cash, perhaps something topical, like a drinking table or mugs.
Help Required
Volunteer Assistance
None possible: all votes would have to go to one person. Perhaps one other person to handle who goes to which table.
OM Assistance
Announcement, consumption of excess alcohol.
Workshop Coaching
Arranging the voting may be complicated. A small computer program might be written to handle the tallying of votes. Also, the event may take a LONG time.
