Yet another drinking game. Shadowjams (talk) 20:21, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Expanded nom - The article title is a variant of Flip cup, and apparently has been institutionalized through a tournament at a casino. ~~The mere fact that there's a casino tournament~~[The casino tournament is not even different than this "variant", just a standard Flip cup tournament. That leaves this version of Flip cup with no notability]~~is not an indication of notability~~. One option for this article is a redirect to Flip cup too.

Comment: 175,000 google hits for "survivor flip cup". 0 hits for google news archive search. 1,036 google blog hits. Perhaps it can be rescued if some of these hits are worthwhile. Perhaps the article creator will see this comment and try to add references.--Milowent (talk) 21:59, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I only see 206 results. -Verdatum (talk) 22:36, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - I think it's just the juxtaposition of words that's showing up (and google doesn't require every word matches either). I guarantee you "Flip Cup Coors Light" will get a load of hits too, but obviously it's not notable as a standalone. Shadowjams (talk) 22:51, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Merge the Flip cup article is tiny, and this is merely a variant. Even with excellent sources, it doesn't need it's own article. -Verdatum (talk) 22:40, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Delete minor drinking-game variant, no reliable sources and it doesn't help that the article on the parent game, Flip cup, doesn't even bother mentioning this variant. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 04:28, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Flip Cup. Ivanvector (talk) 17:51, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Merge & Redirect - To Flip Cup. There are enough sources to prove its existence (I think) but not enough to warrent its own article, Lord Spongefrog, (Talk to me, or I'll eat your liver!) 21:10, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
