Yes, drinking *amazingly* ...ahem..... can effect your performance! Who knew!?

Of course, this is common sense. You drink and you do worse. However I felt that the forum could use a place to share stories of your Mech involved drunken exploits. Use this thread to share a funny or awful story, apologize to a team(mate), or just share what you are drinking tonight as you are blasting those little red triangles that refuse to sit still.

So sit down. Stay awhile. Where ever you are now it's 5 o'clock here

I'll kick it off:

I just had an assault match on Terra Therma that I single handedly lost for our team because I was too drunk to hit a Spider running circles around my Timberwolf. I got so focused on getting him I didn't notice that our base was being captured and I was the only one in a position to do anything about it. Must have been five minutes of me drunkenly waving my sights about the screen, the whole time muttering to myself "I'll get you, you little f-er"

Finally got him (with the help of a legged friendly Raven) and realized the position the team was in... 30 seconds to go, I'm on the wrong side of the volcano, and we're about to lose. You can only imagine what folks were saying in the chat...

Not my brightest moment. I'm sure it was hilarious for the team spectating through the Spider's view and hair-pull inducing rage for my team. I'm glad I gave a few folks a laugh and so sorry to my team for the ridiculous performance.

I don't always drink, but when I do I blame Sam Adams

i often drink while playing "i am drinking atm" and yes it does affect your ability.
Mostly in a bad way.

Please understand that this game also has and is aimed at players that are not yet legally allowed to consume alcohol. I'd prefer it if we do not advertise such a behavior to them.

While not strictly against the code of conduct, please act like responsible adults and think about the children.

For that reason I'm removing your thread from the visible forums part. You can find it in the k-town forum!

It's okay, welcome to K-town. This is a place I suddenly found myself just recently, by circumstances similar to your own. Although I do not know where you come from, I can offer assurance that this thread will be at home here.

I belong to a group called the Grog Corps, that frequently streams our drunken antics, and we happened to have put on a show last night. I believe the last mech I was running was a Dire Wolf, in which I lost five matches in a row. My lowest damage being a miserable 30, but that wasn't the alcohols fault entirely.
