OH MAN!  CONvergence starts tomorrow!  That means it’s time for me to post our Unofficial CONvergence Drinking Game for 2015.  Some of the rules are new, some are old.  Give it a spin and don’t forget to come up and say ‘hi’ at CON.  Drink responsibly! Drink When:

·  You see The Doctor (one drink for each regeneration divided by 2)

·  You see someone wearing stilts

·  You see someone in a kilt.  Finish your drink if they decide to sit, and don’t know how to sit in a kilt.

·  You see people “play” fighting (dance Kung Fu, boffing, hand-to-hand rough housing)

·  You have to ask your friend “What?” after 7pm in the garden court.

·  You see a Guest of Honor.

·  You have or over-hear a stereotypical “geek” argument. (“Who would win in a fight?” “Kirk or Picard?” etc.)

·  You see a really AWESOME cosplay or prop (“awesome” is a subjective term.  Drink when you feel it is warranted)

·  You see a clearly “sexy” version of a normally conservative or non-sexual character (sexy Ninja Turtles etc.).

·  You run into someone you know (who is not currently partying with you) while partying.

·  You encounter a wandering host (Dark Purple vest with a radio).

·  If you see a captain (any captain), salute them and take a drink.

·  You see someone in a Guy Fawkes mask.

·  You see or hear a fan ‘squee!’

·  You see someone who is cosplaying according to this year’s theme (CVG2015 is dystopia).

Finish your drink when:

·  You see 3 (or more) different people cosplaying the same character encountering each other.

Battlestar Galactica

Battlestar Galactica

Time:3 hours

Players: 3-6

Tipsy Level: 5/10

Hey all you Con-Goers! This is David posting from CONvergence 2013! This post kicks off our special convention update schedule! Over the holiday weekend (Thursday – Sunday), we will be posting a set of Geek and Fandom related rules PER DAY! As you may have already guessed, today's game is none other than the Battlestar Galactica board (BSG) game.

The BSG board game is one of my favorites. It manages to take perfectly emulate the feeling of the 2004 television series. This game is a looong one. None-the-less, it was still a blast! We played this game with 4 people and came up with the following rules. Keep in mind folks, that this game uses drinks AND shots. So read the rules carefully.

Take a shot every time a cylon is revealed.

Take a drink at the start of your turn

Take a shot when a base star is destroyed

Take a drink every time a civilian ship is destroyed

Take a drink every time you jump

Special Rule: If you're Kara take a shot when you use secret destiny

Special Rule: If you're Saul Tigh, take a shot every time your alcoholic ability activates.

As you can see, this game features several different ways to take shots. This game is pretty long, so it is likely you will be tipsy for the duration.

Drink Recommendations: Only one recommendation for this one!

  Ambrosia

In a high ball combine 3 oz Midori, 2 oz Blue Curacao, 1 oz lime juice. Serve chilled, garnish with stemmed cherry

This is another Arkham flavored treat, this time in the form of a deck building game! The rules are among the most simple we've ever made, but we do use a combination of mixed drinks and shots so pay close attention to what you should be doing.

Take a drink whenever you give a substitute teacher or take a transfer student - take two if you do both in the same turn.

Take a drink whenever your students are defeated by faculty.

Take a shot every time your sanity drops to another color threshold.

Everyone take a shot when an event happens.

Finish your drink when your sanity reaches zero.

Drink Recommendations: Two shots of flavored vodka (UV Blue, Cherry, Pink Lemonade, Grape and Sour Apple recommended) mixed with 12 ounces of soda, fruit punch, Kool-Aid, Sunny D, Capri Sun, or juice. Stir with ice and drink through a crazy straw.
