The HE Podcast Drinking and Donation Game
  • BillBill August 2008

    I did want to call it the HijiNKS Ensue Podcast-Vidcast-Simulcast-Castcast(-and-maybe-hopefully-sometimes-Skypecast) Drinking and Donation Game, but I couldn't remember the beginning by the time I got to the end.

    The main idea is that of any other drinking game: Take a drink when some predefined thing happens during the live Ustream castcast. You Fancy Bastards usurped the fund raising thread before I could start this one. Luckily for me, though, you did most of the work by coming up with a bunch of great ideas!

    Don't drink? Need a break? Donate instead!

    Some of us don't drink. Some of us aren't allowed to. Some of us can't hold our liquor for shit. Some of us have to work on Tuesday morning.

    I hear you bitching. If you can't or don't want to drink, consider donating instead. The recommended minimum substitution is 1 shot = USD$0.50.

    Please contribute! This is a flexible, Fancy Bastard-driven system.

    Rules

    1. The feed dies or the Internet goes down: 2 shots / $1.00

    2. Denise says "I hate you guys": 1 shot / $0.50

    3. Joel does a voice: 1 shot / $0.50

    4. Josh takes his bathroom break: 2 shots / $1.00

    5. Anyone mentions Eli's poor and/or Mexican upbringing: 2 shots / $1.00

    6. Any mentions Josh's sexual orientation: 1 shot / $0.50

    7. The Donation Drive is mentioned: 1 shot / $0.50

    8. A line from Arrested Development is quoted: 2 shots / $1.00

    9. BSG is mentioned: 1 shot / $0.50
    9b. The mention is acknowledged as "out of turn" in the podcast schedule: 1 shot / $0.50

    10. A question from the Male Sack has been previously answered on the podcast: 1 shot / $0.50

    11. The ending theme is played: 3 shots (1 for fun, and 2 for the fact you should have stopped a long time ago) / $1.50

    12. Eli hits the Vince Guaraldi button: 1 shot / $0.50

    13. Josh giggles: 1 shot / $0.50

    14. Denise is accused of being racist: 2 shots / $1.00

    15. This drinking game gets mentioned: finish your drink / $3.00

    16. Josh asks or talks about something covered in a prior podcast that he skipped out on: 1 shot / $0.50

    17. Josh says, "So I was listening to last week's podcast": finish your drink and give all your cash on hand to HE

    The next podcast will feature three hours of Joel repeating over and over again "drinking game drinking game drinking game drinking game drinking game drinking game drinking game drinking game drinking game drinking game..."

    Donation problem solved!

    10s? C'mon, give Joel a more credit than that! ;)

    Is any (sober) person going to keep a running tally?

  • FlankedFlanked August 2008

    I'll try, but shit, that's a lot of things to drink to, let alone tabulate results after 3 hours of drinking and -casting.

    Joel, there's an extra $25 donation coming your way if you sign my t-shirt on the air tonight! You may also then wrap it around your head as a turban and proudly proclaim "My first Money hat!"

  • SeanSean August 2008

    @Flanked - How much for an Eli "money loincloth"?

  • FlankedFlanked August 2008

    @Sean - Considering I'd have to finish my drink with a chaser, I'll say $5 extra.

    Sounds like we need someone with experience using Excel.

    Once you get -cast up, I'll re-listen and tabulate the suggested donation amount for those following along.

  • denisedenise August 2008

    this is INGENIOUS. [gourd] hats off!

  • John+DarcJohn Darc August 2008

    But now that they know, they're gonna skew the results!

    We should start making up new rules each week, stuff they won't necessarily do all the time :-P

  • joshjosh August 2008

    16. Every time josh asks or talks about something covered in a prior podcast that he skipped out on.

  • BillBill August 2008

    I wonder if that should be given a value of 1/2 shot / $0.25 due to the extremely high rate of probability. :D

    No, Josh should have to pay everyone listening to the podcast.

    Every time Josh says "So I was listening to last week's podcast" you down your whole drink, and empty the contents of your wallet to Hijinks Ensue.
