Alright. Here's what we're going to do in regards to the Flare Drinking Game.
Everybody either e-mail me or PM me a list of TEN qualifiers for a drink, along with HOW MANY DRINKS each one deserves.
I will post the Master List along with my own ten qualifiers in ONE WEEK, so that most everybody who comes here has a chance to dream up something.
I'm considering stripping the names off of who sent what in so that the Game can be REALLY INSULTING, and therefore, REALLY FUNNY.
If nobody sends me anything, I'll post my own drinking game, but I really doubt it will be nearly as funny, so take five minutes, and write one up.
If I get a bunch of repeated qualifiers from different people, I will pick the one that is worded the best, i.e. funniest to me.
That's about it. Happy hunting!

Posted by PsyLiam (Member # 73) on :
Oh, come on. Even I know who Thoughtychops here is.
Wouldn't this be better in forum competitions though?
Posted by Colorful Cartman (Member # 256) on :
Those qualifiers are undoubtedly going to involve gratuitous abuse of certain recent additions to Flare's population.
Count me in.

Actually, I think we need to qualify what constiutes a "drink." Do we go by units of alcohol? Pints of beer (in which case it becomes really urgent, because what the Yanks call beer is vastly different from the rest of the world, in taste as well as alcohol content - we'll all get alcohol poisoning trying to keep up, they'll just be needing to pee a lot)? Measures of spirits?
Posted by Vice-Admiral Michael T. Colorge (Member # 144) on :
Why not just have anyone take a shot of vodka/tequila whenever a profanity is posted or a doubleshot whenever a fanboy speaks?
Posted by Vogon Poet (Member # 393) on :
If we chose that route, then the Starships & Tech Forum would have to be declared off-limits for reasons of public safety. 8)
Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on :
"...whenever a profanity is posted..."
Or, better yet, whenever someone feels the need to censor a "profanity" by putting an asterisk in it somewhere.

Any time someone changes their Personal Display Name and/or Status Line should be a major category.
Subcategories could include certain members who frequently make changes, and also if they add "cool" variations to their status line -- like highlighted text, or Webdings, etc. Posted by Springfield Armory Snay (Member # 411) on :
The f*ck? Posted by Captain... Mike (Member # 709) on :
does that count as "fuck" or not, in reference to me drinking now?
Posted by Sol System (Member # 30) on :
This is a sort of game, I guess. To the arena!
Posted by Captain... Mike (Member # 709) on :
40 quatloos against the newcomers!
Posted by ThoughtPyminal (Member # 480) on :
A drink is anything you feel comfortable drinking a mouthful of, several times.
(Insert Dirty Joke Here.)
If you're a little girly girl that wants to play with beer (or wine coolers) that's barely stronger than water, so be it. If, on the other hand, you want to be a man with a strapping chest of pure hair: The hard shit is permitted too.
In any case: a drink is defined herein as a comfortable mouthful of your chosen substance.

Just reading the entire thread made me drink half a bottle of Absolut Citron. I feel sick now

I'm having a hard time imagining what a chest of impure hair looks like.
The thing is, the rules can't be things that people will just do willy nilly for the sake of it. Otherwise some wag will spend all his time changing his publically displayed name and masterbating. Which wouldn't be pleasant.
And are any of you sending the *ahem* personal suggestions to Thoughtychops up here? You should. Do it now.

I was under the impression that that already happened, more than we'd ever want to think about.

At this juncture, I think I'll introduce a few drinking quotes:
To alcohol! The cause of, and solution to, all of lifes problems. - Homer Simpson
Sometimes, you hit the bar, and sometimes, the bar hits you. - Jeffrey Lebowski Aka "The Dude"
It reminds me of my safari in Africa; somebody forgot the corkscrew and for days we had nothing to live on but food and water. - W.C Fields

New rule: drink all beverages within a 20 kilometer radius if suddenly the Flare forums have a different layout.
Posted by Vice-Admiral Michael T. Colorge (Member # 144) on :
I wonder if a drinking game based on Enterprise will work? Anytime the show makes a continuity violation, Flare members have to take two shots of vodka and remove a piece of clothing...

whimp! if you wanna feel real sick, try shots of mineral spirits.

Eating sheep manure also causes one to be sick. So let us all try this, too.
Posted by Vice-Admiral Michael T. Colorge (Member # 144) on :
Nim, my last name is Colorge... just write "color" and add in "ge" in the end.

GE. We bring good things to life.

Duly noted, Mike.

i see you speak from experience. actually, i bet that it wouldn't make you sick if the sheep manure was fresh and you liked the taste.
Posted by Magnus Pym Eye (Member # 239) on :
There are far too many stones in it.
Posted by EdipisReks (Member # 510) on :
well, just pick them out.
Posted by Magnus Pym Eye (Member # 239) on :
But: It is sheep poo!
Posted by EdipisReks (Member # 510) on :
hey, you're the one who implied (by apparent first hand knowledge) that you had eaten it, not me. Posted by Magnus Pym Eye (Member # 239) on :
Of course. Sheep Poo Eating is second to none on my list! Except confusing "less" and "fewer." I am dub. Dum.b. Or something.
Posted by EdipisReks (Member # 510) on :
yes, you are indeed. dub.

It's like Blackadder, if it were written by a dead person.
