The Unofficial *ucd.life* Drinking Game
Version 2.0,  26 October, 1996 (Fall edition)

The ucd.life Drinking Game was compiled by Sentimental Hermit
(rmagusti@engr.ucdavis.edu) because he really didn't feel like
going to work today.

THIS IS A GAME. The actual conduct of a drinking game should be an 
exhibition, not a competition, i.e. no wagering, please.

HOW TO PLAY. You and your fellow ucd.lifers should meet in front of a
computer screen (be sure to be logged on and reading Usenet), with your
drinks (alcoholic or not) within easy access. While reading the news-
group *ucd.life*, when any of the following events occur, drink according
to the guidelines provided. If you have any questions as to whether to
drink or not to drink, or how much to drink, in any given situation,
always err on the side of drinking. (Note that this should not be con-
strued as an endorsement for mass alcoholic consumption in any way, 
shape, or form).

I apologize beforehand for any misattributions. Additions, corrections, 
and comments of any kind are welcome.
