Line 71:
** Take one sip of Rolling Rock (or if you can't find any, Yuengling) if there's a quote from [[The Angry Video Game Nerd]]
** Take a sip from two glasses at the same time if any two of the page's quotes have inconsistent indentation.
** Drink a mouthful for quotes from ''[[
* Pour your drink into another glass and take a sip if the page contains a link to [[All the Tropes Wiki Drinking Game|itself]].
** Pour your drink into another glass, then back to the first one, ''then'' take a sip if the page contains a link to an alt title of itself.
*** Fill both glasses and down them if you [[Schmuck Bait|actually]] [[Achievements in Ignorance|clicked]] [[Oblivious to Hints|on one of]] [[Too Dumb to Live|those above links]].
* Take a sip for every example that [[Not a Subversion|misuses]] the words "[[Subverted Trope|subverted]]", "[[Inverted Trope|inverted]]", "[[Averted Trope|averted]]", or "[[Justified Trope|justified]]".
** Take a sip for every example that starts with "parodied" and reads exactly like a straight use of the trope.
Line 123:
** Drink the whole glass if another [[This Troper]] replies to agree/disagree with the opinion or to say that something similar happened to them, too.
*** Or if the original troper is just saying that the trope has happened to him, and doesn't even have an anecdote.
**** This Troper had to take a drink there. Just sayin'
** Take another sip if "This Troper" is actually a pothole link to someone's contributor page.
** Take two sips if [[This Troper]] relates how shocked, SHOCKED, they are that an example from their favorite series hasn't already been added.
Line 136:
* Take a drink every time a page lists [[Crowning Music of Awesome]] on a given page with some variation of the phrase "the whole soundtrack."
** Take two if you can't help but agree. Three if [[Final Fantasy VI|the most famous example]] left you with [[Hype Aversion]].
** Take four if you see people being good Tropers and leaving a few examples and your immediate reaction is [[Fan Dumb|"THE WHOLE SOUNDTRACK"]]
* Take a sip every time a troper [[Natter|replies to]] and contradicts a previous troper in a trope example. Then correct it.
** Actually, you're supposed to bang two glasses together and sip once from each.
Line 161:
** Take a sip if the example says "Full stop" or "Nuff said" ...but then still continues on after that with an explanation anyway. (Doesn't count if it's a sub-point that starts with something like "For the benefit of those not familiar, we'll explain it anyway..." Though, in truth, this probably also deserves a sip.)
** Drain your entire glass if This Troper writes "Said X (was totally Y!)".
* Take a drink if you started getting confused by the game right about here.
* Take a drink if an example that has 'Where to start?' or 'Where to begin?' followed by a long list of examples under it.
** Take two if it does this, but with a rather short list.
Line 210:
*** Two sips if the picture has no sexual connotations whatsoever.
** ''[[Hayate the Combat Butler]]'' (9)
** ''[[Ranma ½|[[Ranma
** ''[[Hidamari Sketch]]'' (9)
** ''[[Shakugan no Shana]]'' (8)
Line 240:
** Take five sips when the laughs were supposed to be intentional.
* Drink the whole glass one sip at a time if somebody potholes [[All Blue Entry|e]][[Expansion Pack Past|v]][[Blackadder|e]][[Flash Gordon (film)|r]][[Lampshade Hanging|y]] [[Hey, It's That Voice!|s]][[You Know That Show|i]][[Ask the Tropers|n]][[Jack Chick|g]][[Tropers Do It Without Notability|l]][[Memetic Mutation|e]] [[Dark Knight Trilogy|l]][[Blake's Seven|e]][[Gentle Giant|t]][[Large Ham|t]][[Brian Blessed|E]][[Yellow Peril|r]] of a word.
** Take an additional sip for every link that was used for the sake of linking each [[Spice and Wolf|l]][[Ad Dissonance|e]][[Hooks and Crooks|t]][[End of an Age|t]][[Dead End Job|e]][[Genre Blindness|r]], [[Dragons in Our Midst|a]][[Skillet|n]][[A Nuclear Error|d]] [[Count Your Sheep|d]][[Min-Maxing|o]][[Viewers Like You|e]][[Elemental Crafting|s]][[Beam Me Up, Scotty|n]]'[[Papa Wolf|t]] [[Ferris Wheel of Doom|r]][[Closet Geek|e]][[Comforting the Widow|a]][[Author Appeal|l]][[Make Me Wanna Shout|l]][[That One Sidequest|y]] [[Secret Secret Keeper|h]][[Psycho Prototype|a]][[Remake Cameo|v]][[I Do Not Speak Nonverbal|e]] [[Cowboy Bebop|a]][[Double Date|n]][[Identity Amnesia|y]][[Romantic Comedy|t]][[Robosexual|h]][[The White House|i]][[Spider Limbs|n]][[The Lord of the Rings|g]] [[Pacifist Run|t]][[One Piece|o]] [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer|d]][[Gargoyles|o]] [[Fashion Show|w]][[Dead Horse Trope|i]][[Emergency Impersonation|t]][[Ouran High School Host Club|h]] [[Bad News in a Good Way|w]][[Talking Is a Free Action|h]][[A Coffin for Dimitrios|a]][[Why Are You Not My Son|t]]'[[Crystal Ball|s]] [[Glass Mask|b]][[Genghis Gambit|e]][[Pink Mist|i]][[Usagi Drop|n]][[Long Running Book Series|g]] [[Interrogated for Nothing|d]][[The Wildcats]][[Jazz|i]][[Super-Powered Robot Meter Maids|s]][[Video Credits|c]][[Drive-By Updater|u]][[Retroactive Recognition|s]][[Monster|s]][[Fullmetal Alchemist|e]][[Toy Story 3|d]][[God|.]]
* Drink the whole glass if a trope from [[Discworld]] is mentioned and it ''isn't'' an example of a [[Subversion]].
* Take a sip if an ''[[Irregular Webcomic]]'' example mentions that the strip's commentary includes a link to this trope page.
Line 302:
** Drink it anyway if it is there, though, and if you look through the comments, take another drink if you see one from someone else mentioning that they got there from All The Tropes.
*** Or capitalizes the trope they got linked from and ends it with a bunch of exclamation marks.
*** Or the comment asks for a thumbs up from everyone reading it who also got there from All The Tropes (in other words, the comment is worded as "thumbs up if All The Tropes sent you here").
**** And to top it off, a sip for every thumb up. Call the ambulance before you start, though.
* Take a drink every time someone potholes a mention of Catholicism to [[Christianity Is Catholic]], even when it's not an example of the trope.
Line 316:
* Take a drink every time the trope separators alternates between colon [:], parentheses [ () ] or a strike [-].
* Take two sips every time you read the same example twice because somebody was clearly so convinced they had a perfect example that they didn't bother to read the page before "adding" it. Bonus sip if the example is mentioned in contradictory terms -- as a straight example and then as a subversion, for example. Then, y'know, delete the duplicate.
* Take a sip every time there's a link to the old version of ''[[8-Bit Theater
* Take a sip every time a [[Pothole]] leads to If You Know What I Mean instead of [[Double Entendre]] when talking about a [[Double Entendre]].
* Take a sip every time ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' is mentioned in the same sentence as a pot hole leading to [[Mind Screw]].
Line 378:
* Take two very short swigs every time a one-word trope or work title is broken up into [[Wiki Word|Wi Ki Words]] rather than using curly braces to make it a link.
* Finish your current bottle every time an example of [[Natter]] is removed in the page history.
** Puke up that beer you just drank if it was [[
** Drink half the bottle if someone removes a reply, but not a reply replying to that reply. Drink half and hit yourself over the head with the rest if someone appears to have removed only the side of an argument they disagree with.
* <s>Cross your heart and</s> Take a drink every time you see that someone has struck through someone else's edit rather than deleting it.
Line 403:
** Drain the bottle if you see examples of this for ''both'' the image and the quote.
*** Drain another bottle if it's the ''same'' example.
** Take a sip if somebody replaces the existing page quote with something that's nearly identical but has the crucial X factor of being from a show they like.
* Take a drink for each example with a potholed reference to an unrelated show appended to it as [[Natter]].
* Take a drink for every pothole to [[Discontinuity]] outside the bulleted point for the trope on a work page.
Line 432:
** Take another one if you remember that you added it yourself.
* Take 3 sips every time the phrase "*shudder*" or "Oh dear God" (or any variant) appears in describing [[Nightmare Fuel]].
** And a shot when a troper prefaces their example on either of those pages with anything to the effect of "This troper doesn't normally scare easily, but..."
* Take a drink every time the phrase "Let's not forget" appears when naming an example.
** If your instinctive reaction is, "Actually, let's forget", finish the glass, assuming you [[Drowning My Sorrows|haven't already done so]].
Line 456:
* Take a sip every time an actor's name is potholed to a show.
** Take ''two'' drinks any time an entry even ''remotely'' about someone's physical appearance is deleted by someone who's either a massive prude, or just afraid of [[Google|you-know-who]] coming down and fucking spanking us.
* Take a drink if [[Ho Yay]] and/or [[Foe Yay]] are listed as tropes associated with a specific work when there is no [[Ho Yay]] or [[Foe Yay]] present beyond two male characters interacting in a friendly or positive manner.
** Take two drinks if there is no description of the [[Ho Yay]] or [[Foe Yay]] occurrence(s), or if the "example" is something like "[[Ho Yay]]: oh good ''Lord'' yes!" or "[[Foe Yay]]: oh man, is there ''ever!''"
* Two drinks every time a sentence ends with the non-word "natch".
Line 471:
** "And it gave them hop'''e'''!" ''~sip''
* If you make an edit that references the trope by name, and then do a word find (ctrl+F) to see edit you made, but type in the trope name... you're probably coasting pretty well for now. (If you do take a drink anyway, it's probably time to do more reading and less typing).
* Take a sip every time any [[Audience Reaction]] trope talks about [[One More Day]] or [[Brand New Day]] or [[One Moment in Time]] or any characters or any changes to established characters from those story arcs.
* Take a shot every time [[Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment]] is invoked to make a passive-aggressive political statement.
* Take one from an opaque glass whenever you see a [[Hey, It's That Guy!]] or [[Hey, It's That Voice!]] entry that potholes to characters from other series, but says does not mention who's actually playing them.
* Take a mystery shot whenever you see an anime/TV show/webcomic/etc. that you've never heard of but see everywhere on the site.
* Drown your sorrows every time you see a [[Tear Jerker]] entry punctuated with *sob* or *sniff*.
Line 484:
*** Take a drink if you ''knew'' that page was locked, and [[Shmuck Bait|you purposely clicked on it]] [[Tempting Fate|for a free drink]].
*** Finish the rest of your bottle if that page has been locked since the last time you've visited it.
* In a similar example, take a shot everytime you go to a page from the [[Permanent Red Link Club]].
** Upgrade that shot to a chug if you [[Mission Control Is Off Its Meds|didn't go there on purpose]].
** Finish the rest of your bottle if that page was locked in [[About/The Second Google Incident|The Second Google Incident]]. If you already knew it was red-linked because of said incident, take a victory drink from someone else's bottle. <ref>By the way, that's a recursive drink, due to the mention of Urotsukidouji earlier in the page.</ref>
Line 520:
** Down three mouthfulls for every time the link doesn't take you to fanservice or fetish fuel.
*** Drain the minibar if it does not have anything to do with badassery, adventure, genre shift, or [[Love Hina]].
**** Drink a glass of hard cider if you have to look at the manga's cast of characters to remember who was mentioned.
* Take a sip every time a series is linked to ''[[Haruhi Suzumiya]]''.
** Two sips if the link ''isn't'' "Character X is Haruhi.
Line 528:
* Drink the entire bottle if [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|those]] [[Doctor Who|three]] [[Suzumiya Haruhi|series]] are mentioned in a single theory.
* Take a sip every time someone links a series to ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]''.

* Take a sip every time there is a link to [[El Goonish Shive]].
* Take a sip every time a character is said to be [[Everyone Is Jesus in Purgatory|either Jesus or in Purgatory]].
Line 578:
** Finish the bottle if the discussed image doesn't even qualify as [[Just a Face And A Caption]].
* Take a sip every time you see someone suggest a ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' page image in Image Picking with no explanation as to why it is better than the current page image. Take two if the picture is demonstrably ''worse.'' Three if it's demonstrably worse ''and'' has watermarks.
* Take a sip every time a specific scene is suggested in Image Picking without any actual image because "it's a good example of this trope". Take the shot if there are several images of the suggested scene as the first results of a google image search.
