The Worst Chat-Up Line
Deliver the worst chat-up line you own, to the room, with total conviction.
Nothing at all
A room that came to play
Sitting down
None needed
How to run it
One line each, thirty seconds of build-up, the room marks it out of ten.
The turn
- Deliver it to the room, or to the fridge. Never to a stranger.
- Conviction is the entire game. A great line delivered sheepishly scores nothing.
- Two bonus points for a line that has genuinely worked on somebody at some point in your life.
Worth knowing
- Anything aimed at a man who did not sign up for this is nil points and a forfeit. That is the whole rule and there is no version of this where we bother anybody.
- The groom judges.
What you need
Nothing. The people in the room and a phone between you.
If it goes badly
Least convincing delivery gets the next round in, whatever people are on.

Questions answered by the groom's partner in advance. The groom guesses what he said.
