[QUOTE="Belegbeth, post: 1510099, member: 17228"] I apologize for my snarky post. :( My more general point is that I don't understand the view that somehow consuming a couple of beers over a 4-5 hour gaming period is going to force the game to devolve into drunken mayhem. That might be the case for young players, but it seems patently absurd for anyone beyond their early 20's. If anything, in my last campaign, having 2-3 beers in the evening, during the course of a game, helped people to relax and get into the role-playing. Hence moderate consumption actually HELPED people enjoy the game. (Of course, it is not necessary, and we had many fun "dry" sessions as well.) To recap: drunken mayhem is no fun. But it seems strange that people think having 2-3 beers could possibly lead to drunken mayhem! [/QUOTE]
