Non-notable and without sources. No relevant google hits. Wikipedia is not for something you made up in school one day, nor for something you made up while getting drunk after school. Gimme danger (talk) 05:55, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hangover Hannukah is a new phenomenon at the University of Richmond. It is a thoroughly thought through and developed game, precisely not something that was just thrown together while getting drunk. The gameplay is on wikipedia now as an anticipation of its gradual establishment among college kids around the country. The page was made by the creators of the game, making references and citations unnecessary. There is no harm in keeping the page up, and it can aid in the game's spread. As the game grows, the page will be improved upon by others, and therefore more useful. We the creators only mean to preserve the credibility and usefullness with which wikipedia has provided internet users. The goal of the article is not to personalize wikipedia for our own gains, but to continue making wikipedia the best.(sjack (talk) 06:34, 20 November 2008 (UTC))[reply]

  • Spill it out Egad, no -- a bunch of college kids inventing a drinking game for Hanukkah? Hey, who needs a dreidel when you have a keg? Ecoleetage (talk) 18:22, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong delete — Oy, vey! I thought you were supposed to go to college to, like, you know, get an education instead of writing Wikipedia articles about obscurely different ways to blow your brain with booze? MuZemike (talk) 20:07, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • I resent that last comment. Get rid of the page, whatever, but stop ridiculing and making assumptions about the creators of the page. I'll have you know that while I appreciate having a good time on the weekends I value my education a whole lot and understand how lucky I am to be in college. We study hard so that when we graduate we can do something with our lives other than sit around on Wiki petitioning to get rid of a page that means nothing to me.sjack (talk) 02:41, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Let's all be civil! There is no need for name calling. Just comment on the AfD, not the author.--Beligaronia (talk) 05:03, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • FYI, I work at a university right now, already have a bachelor's, and probably spent a couple more undergraduate evenings than I should have participating in willful inebriation instead of studying; in other words, I might have very well fit the same stereotype I described above. I realize there are many hard-working students out there (you have to be when working with numbers and stuff), and I appreciate that. However, the fact remains that it's still just something made up; my reason to delete stands. MuZemike (talk) 19:50, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete - unsourced and not even a claim of notability. Springnuts (talk) 18:37, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
