    One of the players can pour the drinks, but the drunker they get, the more difficulty they might find in doing so. , This isn't actually necessary, but it's recommended as a cautionary addition.

    This person can be a good friend who isn't really into drinking or simply isn't in the mood to play, and they can sit nearby just to make sure someone doesn't get dangerously drunk or accidentally hurt themselves.

    They can also be the designated driver, or be the one to call up a cab for the players to drive home in.

    In addition, this person can be the one to pour the alcohol also. , This is best left in the hands of the sober friend, because this may be a factor into who wins the game. , This is when you choose who's going to go first. , The statement has to be something that person has never attempted or done before.
