Quoits
Quoits — the ring-tossing game — often touches low engagements and loss of good employment, with distress and quarrels in playing. The dream may ask where idle pastimes are pulling you toward worse company and lost standing, and whether the casual game you've drifted into is costing more than its harmless surface suggests.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for quoits, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To play at quoits in dreams, foretells low engagements and loss of good employment. To lose, portends of distressing conditions.
Fontaine, 1862
If a man dreams he is playing quoits, it is a sign he will soon have a quarrel. If a woman dreams she is playing quoits, it foretells she will have much trouble through life. To dream of quoits, is not a good omen to lovers.
