X-Files Drinking Game
By Eli Lehrer
This is my version of a drinking game. You already know the rules. Get a glass
full of the beverage of your choice and when you see the action/event
described take the number of sips listed. Additions to the list are welcome.
**One Sip Events:

Echo of the opening music plays
Mention of Rosewell, the Kennedy assassination or any other well known
conspiracy theory

The Lone gunmen appear
F. Denton Skinner appears
Smoking Man appears
***Two Sip Events:

Either character launches into an awkward sounding explanation of some
historical/scientific fact/principle
Scully offers a "scientific" explanation that is actually more incredible than
Mulder's Idea
Either character kills someone
Anyone dies in a particularly gory way (i.e. stuck in an escalator, frozen and
then broken into little pieces, eaten by little glowing bugs)
Mulder and Scully touch
Mulder does a voice over
Mulder decides that it would be fun to go to a dark place alone in order to
check something out

facility

*** Four Sip Events:

Internet/alt.tv.xfiles etc is mentioned
Either character is seen in underwear / swimming suite
Alien Being Appears (Dream Sequences Count)
Actor from Twin Peaks appears (other than DD)
Clear-cut allusion to any _specific_ film or TV show (generalized film noir
references and mentions of Deep Throat don't count)
***Five Sip Events:
Either Character Has Sex
Space Alien Craft Appears
Mention of a far out conspiracy theory (MJ-12, Illuminati, Government tracking
devices, Dr. Jack Van Impy)
Scully decides that it would be fun to go to a dark, spooky place alone
"Dead" character reappears
Events Requiring Special Action:
Scully and Mulder have sex with each other: Smash your TV set and fly out to
Vancouver to picket the 1013 offices. Begin a letter writing campaign to Fox
asking the network to a cancel the show.
Ending to episode is totally closed, there are no unanswered questions, the
alien turns out to be a guy in a mask who was haunting the house to reduce
property values. Shaggy and Scobby show up at the end to help Mulder and
Scully: Same as above
