QuakeCon 2015 Day 2: Inebriated

07/25/15

So, like last year, Master Pancake performed as Friday night's entertainment. Also like last year, I got super drunk. This marks my eighth time getting drunk by my count.

In any case, the day started off with a cold shower and a quick trip to the BYOC area. There, I had a breakfast of Krispy Kreme and bagels.

I went wandering and ended up volunteering at the Red Cross to give blood. Which means in about eight weeks or so I'll get my blood type in the mail, and also find out if I was wrong about not having any particular blood diseases (hopefully I'm right).

After that, I made my way back to the BYOC area and played some Dark Souls and Dark Souls II. I'm playing with the idea of doing a pacifist run in the original Dark Souls, wherein I beat the game only killing the bosses I have to kill.

I'll probably start over again and twitch stream it when I get around to it.

Afterwards, my cousin, Rosse, and I went on a trip to get food, only to find the restaurants we were going to closed at 1500, and it was 1530. We ended up getting food truck food (some pretty yummy pizza).

Then, I played some Melee.

Then I made my way to my friend's hotel room with my friend to get some iced vodka. I filled up an empty water bottle halfway and chugged it. Delicious. I then filled it up halfway again to have some to drink slowly as the day progressed.

My friend saw me chug it and told me I made a mistake. He was more or less right. The inebriation came in waves, and I got more and more intoxicated over the next half-hour. I ended up playing more Melee drunk, which is a fun experience, as it turns out.

We lined up for Master Pancake a half-hour before the show at 2030, which was way too late to have a good position in the line. We still ended up getting decent seats, though.

The movie this year was Jurassic Park. The drinking game was whenever Jeff Goldblum made a witty one-liner and whenever you saw rippling water. When these things happened, the rule was to shout, "Hold onto your butts!" and drink. I was basically already out of drink at this point, though, so I just did the shouting.

A fist fight erupted in the row right in front of me during the show. It was pretty crazy. It ended up leading to two half-empty rows in front of us.

After Master Pancake we all headed back to the BYOC. Sam (using fake names) ordered some pizza and elicted my help in getting it. We played Melee, ate pizza, played Counter-Strike and then I went back to the hotel to crash.

End of the second day.
