Editing Quarters (game) (section)

===Other variations===
An alternative method of gameplay is that one glass is positioned in the center of the table.  Participants take turns attempting to bounce the quarter into the glass.  If the shooter succeeds, they pass the glass to anyone at the table, and that person must then chug the beverage and catch the quarter in their teeth.  Play then passes to the person on the shooter's left.  Should the shooter fail to make the shot, they have the option of passing the quarter to the left, or shooting a second time.  If the shooter succeeds on their second shot, they pass the glass as usual.  If the shooter fails on their second shot, they must drink the beverage.  In either case, the person on their left becomes the next shooter.

Another method involves various cups and one community cup. A community cup is first placed in the center of the table. Each player has their own individual cup, and these cups are placed around the community cup, forming a ring around the community cup (much like a flower pattern). Players fill their individual cups with a shot of their drink, and pour a small amount of their drink into the community cup (various drinks can be used to play, so the community cup may house a mixture of different drinks). A shooter begins by bouncing a quarter towards the cups. If the quarter lands in a player's cup, the player must drink his/her shot, refill the cup, and place it back with the rest. If the shooter lands the quarter in to the community cup, every player must reach into the center and drink their shot. The last player to finish their drink must then drink the community cup. If the shooter makes his/her shot on  the first attempt, they may shoot again until they miss. If they miss on the first attempt, they must pass the quarter to the next player on their left. This game is commonly called Ponderosa.

Another variation gives the shooter the power to make a rule if they land the quarter in the cup in a certain number of consecutive tries. The rule is often that shooters must then say a phrase, or perhaps that no one at the table can say a certain word, with the penalty being an instant drink by the offending player. This effectively speeds up the intoxication. Common rules that the shooter will create are that no one can say the word Drink, Drank, Drunk or point with their finger. Note that only one rule can be created at a time.

Any shot where the shooter does not bounce the quarter off of the table at least once counts as a miss.
