69:
On 'odd' hands whoever has the '6' of Spades
MUST bid '6' everyone else MUST nil.
On 'even' hands whoever has the '9' of Spades
MUST bid '9' everyone else MUST nil.
Best 2 outta 3 switch seats after each game
NOTE: The '6' is on odd hands and the '9' is on even hands.
Please don't tell us we need to change and make the 6 on even
and the 9 on odd because then we couldn't call it '69' it would be '96'

No DOUBLE NILS!

(Thanks KaspersPet)
One pard MUST bid 6, the other can bid anything.

HIT ME:

You bid 1 more than your pard bids.
If your pard bids 1 you bid 2.    If your pard bids 3 you bid 4 etc...

HOMICIDE:**  (also part of Cides)

Each team must make their bid equal 7.     Either a 6/1, 5/2, 3/4, or 7/nil or double nil
whatever your pard bids..... make your bid equal to 7

HUMILIATION:

This is a combo of 2 formats - Strip (listed above) & Crawl*
Crawl:* everyone bids 3 & plays lowest to highest in ALL suits.  
BUT...
you play like STRIP (You can't play spades until you STRIP your hand of all the other suits first.)

LABOT N ME

you play reg spades with a bot for your pard
against another single player who also has a bot
for a pard highest score after 10 hands wins

MELTDOWN:

This is a combo of 3 formats - Strip, Suicide* & Crawl*
Bid like Suicide* (One pard Nills, one pard bids Reg)
But Here's the catch...
You have to Crawl* (Play lowest to highest in every suit) AND
Strip (you cant play spades untill thats all you have left in your hand).

MISERY

reg spades but 3rd, 6th & 12th hand(in finals)
EVERYONE MUST BID NIL or DOUBLE NIL ONLY !!!

NAUGHTY MIRRORS

same as reg mirrors but 1st bidder calls the suit to be bid on
could be clubs one hand, & hearts the next & spades the hand
after that it will ALWAYS be a 13 bid & spades are ALWAYS trump

NAUGHTY STRIP

A wicked combination of 2 Formats
Naughty Mirrors...1st bidder calls the suit to be bid on
STRIP...cant play spades till you Strip your hand of all the other suits

NIGHTLY FETISH

A wicked combination of 6 whambam formats

Hands 1-4 Agony:
hand 1 everyone bids 1...hand 2 everyone bids 2
hand 3 everyone bids 3...hand 4 everyone bids 4
Hand 5 Reflections:
Bid same as youre pard...Dont bid b4 youre pard
Hand 6-7 Repeat:
whatever you bid this hand, you have 2 bid next hand
Hand 8 Naughty Mirrors:
1st bid picks & suit & everyone bids the cards
they have in that suit...13 bid & spades are still trump
Hand 9 Sadistic Suicide:
1 pard each team goes NIl, the other bids 1
Hand 10 Suits Me:
everyone picks a differant suit & bids the cards
they have in that suit cant use same suit 2 times

OPPOSITES:
If pard bids an odd number you bid even
If pard bids an even number you bid odd
Nil / DN counts as an even bid.
Example: Pard bid 3 so you bid  4 or Pard bid Nil so you will bid 3

REFLECTIONS

Bid the same amount your pard does (yep thats it)

REPEAT

hands 1 3 5 7 & 9 are reg bid as normal
hands 2 4 6 8 & 10 are a REPEAT of hand before
EX: U bid 3 in hand 1 you HAVE to bid 3 in hand 2
U bid NIL in hand 3 you HAVE to bid NIL in hand 4

SUITS ME

4 players.....4 suits
everyone picks a differant suit &
bids the amount of cards they have in that suit

TEASE ME, PLEASE ME:

All bids from the 1st hand will remain the same,
rotating clockwise each following hand.
Whatever the ORDER of the bidding is in 1st hand,
it will continue that way for the rest of the game
