Fourth re-post of my London Barcraft blog here. Hope you like it guys and really appreciate any feedback you guys have


Here are a few guidelines for the GG button drinking game popularised at the Assembly house (London Barcraft).

Ladies and gentlemen, it is a new year and the dark dark winter without any tournaments is behind us. It is time once again to enjoy look forward to the great combo of beer and Starcraft. To help you enjoy the viewing experience at the Assembly house I have outlined the rules for the classic GG button drinking game:

1.Purchase your favourite beverage
2.Scramble to the best seat in the bar before anyone else grabs it

Clearly the most important two factors in any good Barcraft experience!

Now the game is very simple – you publicly call GG for the player you think is going to win the match by hitting a GG button.

come on Boxer dont let me down!

If you don’t own/can’t locate a GG button then go man-mode and get the MC of your Barcraft to publicly announce it to the bar. Getting it right nets you bragging rights and the glorious adoration of your fellow nerds; but get it wrong and…

1.If you GGed within 5 minutes of the game starting then drink two fingers
2.If you GGed within 10 minutes then drink four fingers
3.If you GGed within 15 minutes then drink six fingers
4.If you GGed after 15 minutes then finish you drink!

The game can be mixed up by playing with shots if that’s what you prefer.

All that’s left are the special rules…

a) If you call GG for Boxer or Thorzain come find me and I will buy you a drink myself !

b) Call GG for Idra and he leaves pre-maturely = finish your drink

O Idra...

c) Call GG for a Korean Terran and they lose (except against other Korean Terrans) = drink two fingers

d) If you call GG for MVP then just drink up…that’s just boring

e) Call GG for a Protoss and they four-gate = drink one shot

f) Call GG for a Terran and they 1-1-1 = drink one shot

Hopefully you guys can make up many more special rules yourselves. Enjoy fellow Barcrafters!

GG

What do you mean by "Drink X Fingers"? I'm unfamiliar with that terminology.

Its a measurement. So hold up X fingers next to your drink at the current level of the beverage and drink down to the bottom of your fingers
