  The Rules
  --- o ---

  Objective : To get drunk using a variety of drinking techniques and
  equipment.

  Apparatus : You will need;

                           i)    One six-pack or crate of lager, stout or
                                 other beer.

                           ii)   One bottle of spirit, preferably something
                                 you won't want to spit out in disgust.
                                 Suggestions include:
                                             Jack Daniels
                                             Southern Comfort
                                             Other Whisky/Bourbon
                                             Ouzo
                                             Vermouth
                                             Archer's

                                             or whatever else you like.

                           iii)  As a contingency plan a bucket could be
                                 used to avoid accidental expectoration
                                 or leakage.

                           iv)   Access to an IRC client . . .

  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

  Gameplay
  - o -

  First it is neccesary to connect to an anothernet server such as:

        irc.neato.org
             or
        sunrise.ca.us.another.net

  after connecting, identify with nickserv and proceed to /join #trax.

  Once in #trax shout "I fucking hate nickserv," to announce the start of
  competition.

  It is now that the fun starts.  In order to play the game, remember to
  have your drink beside you (or under the table if you're in college)
  and keep you eyes peeled.  Cancel all DCCs and do not d/load anything,
  there is a chance you'll miss something if you're not paying full
  attention.  While chatting with your favourite IRC buds, discussing
  philosophies, Star Wars and other religions you have to keep an eye out
  for the following, and drink accordingly:

  Hints:
  In most IRC clients (mIRC, Pirch etc) it is possible to highlight certain
  words and beep when they appear.  Simply copy the list of keywords into
  the appropriate box and you can play the game easily, even when on the
  verge of unconciousness!  w00p!
