Among the Horrors
Does anyone else here really enjoy darts? If so, what are your favorite rule variations? Do you have your own badass dart set or board setup? Etc.
 
I just play the standard 501 at bars. I should try the other games, what would you recommend?

I usualy play cricket or 501. Been meaning to find other games, but bars are generally only set up for the "01" games or cricket. I just set up a cheap dartboard at my place so I intend to become an ace (lol)

Cricket is generally more challanging than "01".
 
I used to play on a league, was ranked, did state tournaments, all that crap. Had my own dart set of course. It was a Cricket league so mostly just variations of that like lowball and random. It was all on electronic boards in bars with much booze. Great times.

Sounds like a great time. I wouldn't mind being in a league someday.
 
Interesting. Care to post the rules?

@TB: I don't have cable or a digital box.

It's kinda convoluted. It involved choosing red or black. If 2 of your three throws landed on the color you chose, then you don't have to drink. If two out of three land on a color you didn't choose, you have to drink the number it landed on (say 2 darts landed on the black part of 5, but you chose red, you would have to drink 5)

If it landed in the double or triple section, drink 2x or 3x that amount.

The person who throws up first loses ;)
