1000 Blank White Cards
A group in the area has begun to play 1000 Blank White Cards, but we've made a few changes to the rules to better suit the players.

Supplies:
-A bunch (200-300) of blank, half-size index cards
-Some pens

Terminology:
-Deck: The face-down pile of cards from which people draw. Generally kept in random order.
-Player's Pile: Each player has a face-up stack of cards in front of them to which they play their cards. It starts empty.
-General Discard: There is one big face-up discard pile, usually next to the deck.
-Points: Most cards have a point value on them. These values are mainly capped at ±10 points, although point inflation is starting to take over, despite our best attempts to stop it.

Pre-Game:
-If there is no existing deck, all players make 10 cards. These are shuffled together to make the deck.
-If there is already a deck, the winner of the previous game with that deck makes 5 cards and everyone else makes 2. These are shuffled into the deck.
-All players are dealt 3 cards.

Gameplay:
-Draw 1 card.
-Play 1 card. Cards are normally played to that player's pile.
-Gameplay usually moves clockwise.

Post-Game:
-Whoever has the most points wins, usually.

Notes:
-All rules are subject to change depending on card text.
-Generally, higher-value cards have requirements to gain those points, such as acting like you're on fire or winning at rock-paper-scissors.
-Similarly, high negative-value cards usually have effects like "You must play this card immediately" or "Nose Goes! (Loser gets this card)".

Why didn't I comment on this earlier? Anyway, keep up the good work. Hopefully you can continue your ASV Temporos story. As for this game, I should try it out sometime. I'll try it out with a few friends and give you some pointers about the most optimal way to play the game. Of course, everyone has a different playing style. Whoa, sorry about that wall of text there.
