23. Table Skittles Information on miniaturised table version, including method and rules of the game. http://www.tableskittles.com/

Rules of the game Method Pubs Information ... Home Description Also known as bar skittles and pub skittles, the game of table skittles is known across all of Britain. This game is gaining popularity all over the world now. Nine small skittles are positioned in a square on a raised base, nine inches square. Dimensions of the table are about two feet by two feet six inches. The height of the side walls should be about three inches high. In the middle of the left hand side of the base (as the player looks at it) stands a pole about three feet high connected to which is a swivelled chain with a a wooden ball at the other end suspended at same height as the skittles. The pins and ball would normally be made of boxwood or other English hardwood. The ball is swung clockwise around behind the pole, the objective being to knock over the skittles as it returns to the player. So in order to knock over all nine skittles, a player must hit the skittle furthest away first. A scoreboard is sometimes integrated into the front of the board and can appear in several styles. Quite often, a cribbage board is used. How to play Since the game is a miniaturised version of Skittles, the game is played in the same way. A coin should be tossed to see who takes the first turn.

Origin Skittles, also known as Ninepins, which was the pre-cursor to ten-pin bowling, has been a popular English pub game since the 17th century. The pins are set up in a square pattern and players attempt to knock them down with a ball. It is still played but not so much as previously. The phrase was referred to in Footman's History of the Parish Church of Chipping Lambourn (1894), which reprints a piece from 1634:

His crime wasn't selling drugs, smuggling a weapon, punching someone in the lunchroom, or even cheating on homework. The honor student, who according to his mother had never even gotten detention before, made the cardinal sin of buying a package of Skittles from a classmate According to school spokeswoman Catherine Sullivan-DeCarlo, the New Haven, Connecticut school system banned candy sales in 2003 as part of a district-wide school wellness policy. The policy states that "no candy or junk food fundraisers will be allowed on school grounds" and that only healthy snacks will be sold in vending machines. I realize we face an obesity epidemic in this country and I don't like candy vending machines in schools, but I realize treating Skittles or a Snickers bars like illegal drugs just makes them even more desirable to students.

The game was originally intended as a vehicle for the Skittles line of candies, and more specifically, as an extension of the Skittles commercials where Skittles-loaded rainbows would bring life and color to otherwise drab fantasy settings." This is an interesting and a rare example of a brand integrated into a fantasy environment, generally considered off-limits to advertisers. To this end, the developer tapped into popular culture built around Skittles and the brand's "Rainbow commercials" and presented the brand under a humorous angle. While the game scored low for its technical glitches and simplistic gameplay, the gamers' reaction to the Skittles theme is generally positive, as illustrated by this comment left on an online forum:

Autoblog in town for Big Apple's auto show! Galleries AOL Living AOL Food ... Web Skittles-related controversy is resolved (partly) Posted Mar 13th 2008 4:29PM by Bob Sassone Those damn Skittles, so innocent and delicious but causing so much controversy. You may have heard about the New Haven, CT eighth grade honors student who got into trouble for buying a bag of skittles in the hallway of his school. Seems the school has a strict policy about the selling and buying of candy. The student was not only suspended from school for three days, he was also barred from the school honors dinner and lost his title as school VP! Now it looks like some of those punishments might be taken away . After meeting with his parents, school officials have decided to forget the suspension and will also allow the student to continue as VP. He did, however, miss that dinner. School officials say that this has been an ongoing problem with students. It seems to me that one of the reasons they changed their mind is because the story got so much attention from national media, including TV networks. Officials are reviewing their policy.

Sheridan Communications and Technology Middle School Principal Eleanor Turner said she agreed during a meeting with Michael Sheridan's parents to erase the student's suspension record and reinstate him as Student Council vice president, the New Haven (Conn.) Register reported Thursday. "In looking back over this incident, I warned the students repeatedly, but I should have reinforced it in writing to parents, that the district does not allow buying and selling candy at school," Turner said in a statement released by the district. "My intention throughout was and still is to maintain a safe and orderly building. I am sorry that this has happened. My hope is that we can get back to the normal school routine, especially since we are in the middle of taking the Connecticut Mastery Test." The student who sold Sheridan the $1 bag of candy has also had his suspension expunged.

This is a permanent flavor addition to the Skittles line which already includes: Original Fruit, Tropical, Smoothie Mix and Wild Berry I was pretty skeptical. First, Skittles Ice Cream Skittles Vanilla (cream colored): light and sweet, like a vanilla taffy. (pale caramel colored): slightly tangy candy coating, a good toasted flavor to it ... not a trace of chocolate, but a little graham/cereal taste to it. Pretty good. Very sweet. Chocolate Caramel Chocolate Pudding (dark brown, almost purple colored): vaguely chocolatey, mostly sweet, kind of like cocoa towards the end of the chew.
