Drinking at the Game Table?

[Queen_Dopplepopolis]

It's allowed and happens from time to time... especially in the winter (The Universe will have a Sunkist and rum when he gets cold). I enjoy a Fresca and rum, glass of sangria, or wine cooler while we play.

of course I allow alcohol - were playing in Germany!!!

Based on past threads on this topic, I predict that most answers will fall into one of the following three categories:

(a.) No, it is not allowed (because we play with kids; or we've had a bad experience with some drunk jerk in the past; or our DM is Psion, and he's a mean drunk liable to chuck dice at us).
(b.) It is allowed, but nobody does it (because we play during the afternoon; or we all have to work early the next day; or we're all very American).
(c.) It is allowed, and we do it (because we're adults, and we like to have a couple of pints or whatever while playing a game for fun).

There is pretty much always beer (Sam Adams, Pete's Wicked, Bass Ale, Guinness), wine, wine coolers, and Mike's Hard Lemonade at my game. Heck, I can pretty much bet on one guy in particular to bring a case of Sam Adams each time.

Beer is good.

RPGs are good.

Good + good = very good!

Yes...in moderation.

in ye olde dayes we used to do beer & pretzels. and everyone stayed over. so it was no problem.

but now a days everyone needs to get home for other committments... so the answer is no. we don't drink.

But a beer or two wouldn't hurt anyone. We are all responsible adults.

No alcohol at the table. Not so much an overt rule, but nobody does it. We're just not drinkers. Lots of coke, dr pepper, and iced tea, though.

I allow it, but lately I tend to GM alcohol-free. It just helps me stay focussed if I don't drink during the session. Most of the other folks will have 1-2 beers during a 4 hour session.

So no booze but you guys get all coked up? "IT'S MY TURN DAMMIT!"
