Well, my master's thesis is finally a thing of the past and I have a
bit of time on my hands, so I came up with a really neat new way for
us to enjoy our favorite newsgroup. I don't know how appropriate this
is for the kids out there, so I appologize in advance:

The RGMW Official Drinking Game:

this game is played in much the same way as most T.V. drinking games
we all learned in college. You play the game with one or more friends
(either over the net or together in real life) while you are reading
this group. The rules are:

1. evertime you see a subject line which reads "URGENT.. or
IMPORTANT... EVERYONE MUST READ". you must skip the article and drink
a shot.

2. every time someone posts a " X army/race sucks" - do a shot

3. do a shot for every " X is a cheese character/combination/etc"
post

4. every time someone posts something satyrical and there is a
serious reply to it - drink a shot. If more than three people take
the post seriously, make it a double.

5. For every "GW SUCKS or BOYCOTT GW" post, get up and go to the
bathroom. If you've been following the rules so far and reading the
group a lot, you should have to by this time anyway.

6. for every post that is a personal attack against another member of
the group, drink a shot. Make it a double if it is an attack against
a GW employee. NOTE: have someone else read the posts to you from
this point on; you really don't want to be near a computer with that
much alcohol in your system, do you?


Well, that's all the rules I can think of right now. I hope this
entertains a few of you out there and if it offends anyone, my
appologies in advance. I think I may play this game tonight to
celebrate my masters degree. My newsreader says there are 45 new
articles in the group, so I should be on the floor in about an hour.

Paul :)

Hm... sounds familiar...

Didn't I post something like this a few months back?

Who cares? No drinking game will get you as blasted as playing "Hi Bob"!
A real man's drinking game...although this one has got to come close.

"Hi Bob!" would kill me. Literally. Why? Because I'd have to drink
myself to death to get to sight and sound of the accursed Tzeentch git
Bob Newhart out of my skull.

back-to-back... Drink!)
