Drunkenbottle the Toast of Towns, Drunken Succession!
« on: May 22, 2010, 06:52:03 pm »

To better understand the way dwarves act the way they do, I suggest a succession game played the way a dwarf would...drunk off their ass! Each player would have to do a least five shots of 80 proof, or ten shots of 40 proof before they can play their turn.

I have no experience in starting a succession game, so if someone starts one, I'll be more than happy to join :P

Ick, just remember different people need more or less alcohol to get drunk.

True, true. I'd like for it to be at their own discretion, as the point is to see how long a fort can last until it crashes and burns from non-sobriety.

I'd do it, but I'm only 15.

I'd otherwise try this, but from my experience when I play drunk all I seem to do are queue up orders for rose gold furniture to be made and micromanage poorly. It's not as "whoa crazy random look at all this chaos and fun we are having right now" as you'd think.

I'd totally try this If I was "of age" or what have it. Then again I also have no idea how I act when I'm drunk. Knowing me I'd probably end up vomiting all over my laptop. =|

If I can afford to keep myself supplied, I'd like to try this out.

Hell, make it more fun and have a DF drinking game.

Could be interesting, so if it becomes more than idea, sign me in.

Hell, make it more fun and have a DF drinking game.
For each arriving caravan: 1 shot
Each dead dwarf: 1 shot
Each completed order: 1 shot
Each cancellation of job: 1 shot (does not contain interrupts caused by dangerous creatures)
Each interrupt caused by animals: 2 shots
Each interrupt caused by goblin/kobolds: 2 shots
Each ambush: 3 shots
Each siege: 4 shots

Let's see.
According to Adventure, all you'd do is make huge holes in the ground and a hellton of fucked up corridors and 3x3 boxes containing nothing. Of course, everything is smoothed, and despite of the fact that over 9000 boulders were dug out - there's no stone to be found. You use that shit as trade goods. And whatever you manage to buy gets atomsmashed. Also, the only thing you may keep is clothing - and even if those, only the ones who are on dwarves, alive or not.

Yep, you're gonna play Adventure.

Yes, I do drink.
I had community fortress in my mind when creating that list, each turn one season. Each turn should be survivable if played right (like no mass of construction orders in manager).

Also, you probably don't have to use 80 stuff, perhaps something bit easier. Also, the way I have got used to drinking games is that the term "one shot" usually means one gulp of what you happen to have in hand. If it's beer, then it's one gulp of beer. If it's tequila shot, bad luck.

Also, there are lots of variations. For example, one version of certain drinking game contained a rule where in one extreme case, if it happened in your turn, you had to drink 1,5 L mug of beer with one go. Result: Instant vomiting. With pressure high enough form nice arch of vomit going to around two meters away. And I can tell you, that doesn't feel nice.
