Horse kinda game thing
Tom and I played this game this weekend, it sorta just hit me as a fun game, and it was!
I hit a move, like butterfly, then I pass it to him, he hits butterfly and then another move, like far legover, then passes it to me, I hit butterfly>far legover>smear and send it back and forth adding one new move at the end of the string.
It's a fun game! let's make a new forum for it. ahh ok j/k
name some other footbag drill-like games y'all play

My brother and I play tons of games.
Once I made up a game where you have to tell a story and say one word for every move you hit as you hit that move. Once you drop the next person continues the story.
We play a game similar to your horse but we call it numbers (like the old hack circle game). I hit one move then he has to hit two then I have to hit three, etc.
I also will ask him, "How many contacts do you think I can hit now?" and he will give me a number and I have to hit that many.
Games are awesome and make it a lot more fun, especially when you're having a bad session!! I remember playing a lot of games with Derek and Andrew (and even MARK!!) a while back. We did a lot of the stuff that Eli and Chad did in The Lions Den -- like the passing and the additive combos and stuff. Fun times!

I can hit 9 contacts!
I can hit 10 contacts!
I can hit 11 contacts!
I can hit 12 contacts!
Oh YEAH?! DO IT.
*string*
There's also the One add game.
First player does a one add trick, and the next person needs to duplicate that trick exactly. Same setting surface, same elements, same ending surface.
ie: Outside > op Frigidosis.
Head > Miraging kick
Inside kick > Ducking ss Inside kick
There's tons. Creativity is key.

no way, guys, we (me&burma) played this game like a half a year ago and it's called "regulator" =) .
and we got an online version of it on our forum at launchpad.ru, called "fight club" (but it's all in russian, so you can't participate =) ) and it's really fun. if anyone really wants, i can translate the rules on that forum (launchpad.ru/forum) and we can have some english-speaking threads on it. or i can translate the rules and post it here, so you can play at modified. is anybody interested?

Ryan and I actually made the game a little harder by requiring that you started from the opposite side each time we passed it.
That kept it fun because certain parts of the string would be harder depending on which side you started from.
I need more people to play games with.

a cool game Lynton, Brendan and I once played was this (we didn't name it)
The first person hits a very easy move and names a component in the move (the move is supposed to be under 3 adds I think) - for example ducking and they start with ducking toe. The next person has to do a move with that component of the same add value or one add more. You aren't allowed to do any move more than once. You only get one attempt so if you drop your move you are out (although the winner has to perform a move of 1 add greater than everybody else or more moves of the final add value - on a draw people are allowed to have another attempt etc.)
The highlight playing this game was on ducks with the three of us and all of us hitting a five add first attempt (I did phoenix, Lynton did atomic warrior and Brendan hit spinning ducking osis) - I think this was before or just around the time I was guiltless so phoenix was a big move for me then!
