I don't like this question or dare. It's silly, boring, immature,
gross, or stupid. Why is it here?
You may have selected preferences or a question
list that is not appropriate for your group. Try removing lower level
ratings, such as turning off "G", or switch to Adult content.
If you are a subscriber, you may choose a question
list which contains questions and dares targeted to a certain theme
or party type.
We are also continually refining the grouping
and content of the site. If you feel that a particular entry is poor,
simply vote that it was bad. When entries get a certain number of
"bad" votes, they are flagged for administrative review.
It is also possible that this "silly"
dare is part of a multi-part dare. In some cases, a silly dare like
"hold a cup of water over your head for 3 rounds" may be
setting you up for another player to get a dare like "If any
other player has a cup of water, you may dump it on them."
Arrgh! The site keeps knocking me back to
the main page or says I'm being throttled.
You may be requesting truth or dare questions
too quickly. The site will begin delaying your requests if you try
to request content too quickly. Take your time and answer the questions,
or do the dares, as intended. Better yet, add your comments too!
Throttling serves a few important purposes,
and should not interfere with any groups who are actually playing
the game.
My group chose someone of the same sex for
my dare. Can I pick someone of the opposite sex instead?
This is really up to the group. Generally speaking,
dares should be something unpleasant or embarrassing, but not something
that will cause serious issues or go against the ethics of the person
performing the dare.
In most cases it is acceptable to limit your
dare participants to members of the opposite sex, or edit questions
to say male or female as needed.
I received a dare that
I can't do! Am I out?
If you don't have the resources or items required
for the dare, first try and improvise. Some of the best dares come
from group improvisation! If the entire group agrees that the dare
cannot be done, you may skip your turn. Getting out of a dare occasionally
is part of the fun in the game.
Not wanting to do a dare is not the same thing
as being unable to do it.
What does "randomize" mean?
Many dares rely on a bit of randomness to make
them more fun! To help you pick random numbers more easily, each dare
screen includes a random number picker- the randomizer. To use it,
simply enter a maximum value and press the Random button. The minimum
value will always be 1.
How do I pick a random person?
Quickly give each player in the selection group
a number, starting with one and counting up until everyone has a value.
Use the randomizer to pick a number between one and your top value.
How do I time a dare?
Each dare page has a Dare Timer button. You
may enter a value in SECONDS next to the dare timer button and the
timer will pop-up. When the timer appears, you may pause, reset, or
change the number of seconds at any time.
When the timer expires, you will receive a pop-up
alert.
I've seen the same dare or question a few
times! Why?
Your question or dare is random, but also weighted
by popularity. We also have some hidden content, games and tricks
that only appear when groups provide certain responses, play for a
certain amount of time, or have a certain ratio of truth to dare.
What are the rules for playing?
The rules for truth or dare vary by the group
you play with. We have a sizable list of common rule sets available
here.
What does the "Random" button
on the main page do?
It randomly picks either a truth or a dare fro
the current player. It is an even 50% chance whether you will receive
a Truth Question or a Dare.
What is a "two part" or "multi-part"
dare?
Multi-part dares are dares which must be received
multiple times, or in conjunction with other dares, to fully work.
The first person to receive the dare normally must wait for another
person to receive the same dare, or a related dare, and then a special
task is performed.
For example, you may get a dare where the first
person who receives it must kiss the next person to receive the same
dare.
Some dares are conditional, and only work when
people have received related dares. For example, a series of dares
require people to stick their finger in the ear, or mouth, etc. for
one round. Atlhough these aren't bad by themselves, there are other
dares that state "If another player has a finger in their ear,
then you must move it to your ear." You get the idea.
What exactly does "make out" mean,
anyway?
Any level of passionate contact with another
person that your group is comfortable with. It can range from holding
hands and kissing to something as wild as your group wants. The key
requirement to successfully complete a make out dare is to have some
sort of physical contact that is typically thought of as "boyfriend
/ girlfriend" stuff. Beyond this, it is really up to you.
