Too much math for when you're drunk.

Might be a typo though

I'm calling bullsh!t on this one.

Unless you're good, like me, at Halo you'd die at least 7-10 times in a 7 minute game. Even if you died 4 times in a 10 minute game that's an obscene amount of alcohol in a very shot period of time. Most players never have an average time of living of over a minute soooo....

In fact, custom games usually can last 20 minutes or so with the same amount of deaths per minute. So yeah, either you're lying or you guys are hardcore drunks and/or dead.

That's way more reasonable than 6 shots in ten minutes.

Shouldn't first place have to take it? Otherwise the worst players just keep getting worse, while one really good guy is sober.

un dos trois
mondays is for drinking to the seldom seen kid

i've been working on a cocktail called "grounds for divorce"
whoah
polishing a compass that i hold in my sleeve
whoah
down comes him on sticks but then he kicks like a horse
whoah
there's a chinese cigarette case and the rest you can keep

> and the rest you can keep
and the rest you can keep

there's a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late i cannot help but fall
there's a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late i cannot help but fall

mondays is for drinking to the seldom
*seen kid*

there's this whispering of jokers doing "flesh by the pound"
[these lyrics are found on http://www.songlyrics.com]
to a chorus of supporters from the little town halls
there'll be twisted karaoke at the aniseed lounge
and i'll bring you further roses but it does you no good
and it does me no good
and it does you no good

there's a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late i cannot help but fall
there's a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late i cannot help but fall
there's a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late i cannot help but fall
there's a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late i cannot help but fall

someday we'll be drinking with the seldom seen kid

The whole point is that the crappiest people at any given activity get wasted, which makes them even worse at the activity, so they drink even more.

In high school it was Quarter Bounce.

In college it was movie drinking games. Try this one and end up in the hospital: The Webtender: Drinking game: Star Wars Drinking Game

Before I stopped drinking it was Who can Find the Most Outrageous/Expensive Beer and Act Like You Enjoy It game.

I'm a huge fan of beer pong, my friends take it VERY seriously.

We have been known to play without beer just for the fun of it.

Besides that I enjoy a variety of card games, like asshole.

If you can still type, you're not that drunk.

It's been a quite a few years since I was online while wasted. Back when I used to play MUDs in the 1993-1994 time frame. A text based internet when you a drunk is a very interesting activity.

I built a work bench a few weeks ago that happens to be the exact same size as a beer pong table. My only problem with beer pong is that the beer (whatever light American beer my neighbors get) tastes so awful that it's not even fun to play.

if college has taught me anything, its that drinking games are a way of life, not only the classics (beer pong, flip cup, baseball, kings, land mines my favorite) but the on the fly games, Drinking wheel of fortune or sporting events. My years so far have shown me that Halo can be a very good drinking game if done correctly, a shot of beer (much like a power hour) for every death is realistic while a actual shot is just unmistakably idiotic.

If you think they take it seriously, there is a few bars at PSU that have tournaments every week for some decent money (those get intense)

It's only picked up steam since I've left college. I still play if fairly regularly.
