REJECTED

In the International Federation of Competitive Eating, which is the governing body of the 4th of July hot dog eating contest, they call it "rejecting" if you barf during competition. Which I think is a really hilariously diplomatic term.

In the world of beer shotgunning, it's called "acceptance", but that more refers to your reward with your peers than it does to the actual digestive tract.

Also known in IFOCE and MLE as 'reversal of fortune', or simply 'reversal'.
