|
Here they are! The long awaited, much anticipated rules for the
|
|
great game of FACE CARD, FACE CARD, EVERYBODY LOVES A FACE CARD!!!!!!!
|
|
|
|
The Deck: Get two decks of cards. Make them into Euchre decks, but
|
|
also include 2's. That means keep all cards that are 2, 9, 10, Jack,
|
|
Queen, King, or Ace and put the rest aside. You'll also need to put in
|
|
four Jokers. This is the deck for a four player game. If you want a large
|
|
game, with more than four players, add another deck just like this one for
|
|
every two additional players.
|
|
|
|
The Object: You try to get the best hand of face cards you can.
|
|
Each hand is worth a certain number of points, the lower the better, and
|
|
once you reach 500 points, you're out. The game continues until only one
|
|
person remains. That person is what's called The Winner to use a technical
|
|
term.
|
|
|
|
The Deal: Each player gets four cards. The rest are placed in the
|
|
middle as the Draw Pile.
|
|
|
|
The Draw: On the first time around, you draw three cards and
|
|
discard one. One the next round you draw one card and discard three. This
|
|
means your hand will alternate from 4 to 6 to 4 every other round. When
|
|
drawing, you can pick from the draw pile, the discard pile, or from both
|
|
when drawing three cards.
|
|
|
|
The Play: When you think you have a good hand of face cards (and it
|
|
must be all face cards) you call "FACE CARD, FACE CARD, EVERYBODY LOVES A
|
|
FACE CARD!!!!" after you discard. This marks the final round and is the
|
|
equilivent of "knocking" in other card games (Excluding Magic: The
|
|
Gathering). When this last round gets back to you, you shout "FACE CARD,
|
|
FACE CARD, EVERYBODY LOVES A FACE CARD!!!!" once again and slam your cards
|
|
down on the table. Then all points are totaled.
|
|
|
|
The Face Card?: The cards are divided into 4-card hands and 6-card
|
|
hands to correspond to how many cards you'll have in your hand at the end
|
|
of a turn. The cards are noted as: K=King, Q=Queen, J=Jack, A=Ace, F=Any
|
|
Face Card, X=Any Non-Face Card, ff = Two of the Same Face Card,
|
|
xxxx = Four of the same Non-Face Cards, j=Joker, and 2=2.
|
|
|
|
The Ace is not a Face Card, it is only an Ace. Jokers are Jokers,
|
|
not wild. Most decks picture the Joker with a face, and therefore it
|
|
counts as a Face Card. If your deck has Jokers without any discernable
|
|
face, then they count as Non-Face Cards. Some decks are made by Disney and
|
|
all the cards will have a face on them. Obviously in desks such as these,
|
|
ALL cards count as Face Cards, so hands that need Non-Face Cards in them
|
|
just don't exist when playing with these decks. Jokers and Aces are used
|
|
in Special Hands that will be described seperately.
|
|
|
