The Escapist Drinking Game!

[Mattlore]

So I was thinking something goofy while doing my daily check of the Escapist and thought of a drinking game to play as you peruse the various features and articles. So here's a few rules that I came up with:

Every time Jim Sterling praises himself (Not counting his exit) take a shot

Every time Yahtzee makes reference to any of the following: Tim Schafer, Silent Hill 2, Quick Time Events or any of the Theif Games Take a shot

Any time Zynga or EA are brought up take 4 shots

Every time any one of the crew from Loading, Ready, Run wear silly hats take a shot

For No Right Answer, flip a coin. Heads is Chris, Tails it's Kyle. If your flip looses the debate take 2 shots. If it's a tie take 4

Those are all I can think of right now
This isn't meant to be serious, just something funny I thought of. So feel free to add your conditions to the Escapist Drinking Game.

Down the bottle if there's a complaint about the ending.

 

[Zantos]

Take a shot every time you see a thread with a title too ambiguous to make out remotely what the thread is about.

Any time you type out a post then think "Nah, not worth it" and don't post it, 2 shots.

 

[Euryalus]

Woah, careful there Topaz, this is shaping out to be a guide to suicide by alcohol =D

It was already the pocket guide to suicide the moment the OP said to take a shot at the mention of EA! Dear God.

OT: So what exactly are we taking a shot of anyway?

Spoiler: The standard

Spoiler: The other standard

 

[Owyn_Merrilin]

Take a drink any time someone uses the word "entitled" as an insult.

Take a drink any time an argument gets to the point where people are pointing out logical fallacies instead of actually arguing

Finish your drink if someone posts something that shows they value videogames a bit /too/ much (like that thread about Hurricane Sandy where the only thing the OP was worried about was how it would affect his ACIII preorder. Sorry dude, but that was more than a bit silly XP)

Any time someone presses the red button and makes a thread about it, finish the bottle

Any time someone warns a newbie to stay away from the basement, chug 30 seconds.

- Take 2 shots every time the captcha appears to be fucking with your mind

- Every time there is a 'feminist issues' thread of any sort, find the page number at which the comments devolve into an all out flame war that isn't even really about the thread topic anymore. Take that many shots.

Finish every bottle in your liquor cabinet every time you see a thread about sexism that is over 20 pages long of people pretty much flaming each other.
