JW is right, probablly not.  I don't think that is the point.  Should you allow drinking at a game.  That is an question up to the individual but I think that it shoul be a majority rules DM get final say kinda thing.  The problem with drinking is that it can easily get out of control.  i'm not talking throwing chairs around the room, stumbling, shoving people, can't speak, drolling on the battle mat out of control.  but having your charachter stab another charachter in the back cause he stepped on his foot, or looked at him funny.  this stuff happen in real life but it is rare.  but when you add the dual elimination of reality of gaming and drinking (or other things) then the game quickly spirals out of control.  It can also lead to bad roleplaying.  shure a few beers losten you up a bit make you more social, less caring about what people think about you.  but too much alchol (and the amount differes from person to person)  and soon your totally stone sober lawful good cleric is sneaking up behind the princess to see what color panites she has on, cause the player is drunk and thinks doing so would be funny.  I am no teatodler.  I do enjoy social activities that revolve around drinking.  but I don't need to drink to have a good time.  I guess my rules would be:no drinkingno drug useyou have to smoke outside</blockquote>
