A thought

[curgoth]

Pez was mentioning that we should have a drunken party some time soon.

Which got me to thinking about something I've been meaning to do for some time now.

Iron Bartender

The basic premise is this; a group of people get together. Everyone takes a turn as a "contestant"; whether or not contestant compete against each other, or just go one at a time depends of how many people you have, and how competitive folks are feeling.

Regardless, everyone except the contestant(s) decide on a theme ingredient (alcoholic or not), and the contestant(s) have to make one or more drinks based on this.

Portions should be small to keep people from getting drunk too fast.

Everyone has to drink what the contestant makes; this should discourage theme ingredients like vinegar and Tabasco.

All drinks must be given names. Someone may want to write down recipes if a drink turns out well.

Drinks should be as close to unique creations as possible; rum and coke is not a worthwhile use of iron bartender.

Comments? questions? Screams of horror?

Sounds like great fun.

*Screams of horror*

Yes, it does sound like fun. We just have to make sure that nobody has to go anywhere the next day.

And maple liqueur isn't allowed.

Hmmm, I'm not so sure this is a good idea... I have rules about mixing... I'll play, but considering the dispostion of some of the contestants )tehy know who they are), I'd like to be able to veto certain ingredients...

Well, remember, ingredients are decided by vote, and everyone has to drink what's made.

I think the ingredient voting should give everyone veto power, or else require a unanimous vote.

This is meant to ensure that a) no one makes a really nasty drink to force on everyone else and b) no one forces a really nasty ingredient on everyone else.

You better invite

You better invite Chuck and I to that, and I'd need a place to sleep it off, hmmmm sounds like our key ingrediant should be:

Pepper pot Vodka

,
woo hoo, except we'd probably need a stronger toilet then the one you have.

No pepperpot vodka. That's my veto.

And the point isn't to make people sick. Because that isn't fun. The point is to get pleasantly sloshed, nicely toasted, not fucked up beyond all recognition.

And no one is going to be puking in our toilet. S'not allowed.
