The result was redirect to New Girl (TV series). The content of this article is still accessible in the page history, so feel free to merge any of it to the target article. However, after a quick glance, it seems to me that very little of the content would be appropriate for merging. ‑Scottywong| talk _ 22:54, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable drinking game. Only mentions of it are in association with reviews of the episode, and in blogs, with no evidence that it's moved beyond that. ... discospinster talk 01:55, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- This guy does not understand pop culture.... it spreads when people look up the rules on google and find the wiki page. Since the game was featured on the most popular show on FOX it is worth noting that the searches for the games rules will be highly sought after. GeneralFubar (talk • contribs) 02:02, 12 April 2012
- Wikipedia is not your social networking site or Know Your Meme. It's not supposed to "spread" something like an internet meme, it's supposed to present something after it achieves mainstream notability. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 02:06, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- This is why wikipedia is slowly dying. funny thing how thousands of memes are on here and thousands of drinking games. An encyclopedia is for spreading information. Wikipedia is meant to be a source for new information that is for the use of the people and should not be dictated by people who are tough behind a keyboard. In one day the game has been a trending topic on twitter and google searches in the last 24 hours. ride the new wave or get out of the ocean, it's time to bring wikipedia back to the users.

- "Wikipedia is meant to be a source for new information." No it's not; read WP:GNG. This won't change no matter how much proselytizing you do. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 04:44, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete or Merge. Not notable and improperly referenced. Could possibly be merged with New Girl. LogicalCreator (talk) 12:30, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete or Merge with New Girl. I can't find any evidence of notability of this game on it's own.--StvFetterly(Edits) 14:14, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- If this is to be Merged per WP:ATD into New Girl, which seems a reasonable outcome, it really needs the OR trimmed, including the reverse-engineered rules and HOWTO-lite. Jclemens (talk) 05:43, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I agree this this can be merged with New Girl, however, it's useful--first link i clicked when interested in finding out more about the game was wikipedia.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.72.189.141 (talk) 14:46, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
