Sherlock Drinking Game

[Lirael]

Since this part of the forum is so empty, I decided to do something in it. So I'll suggest a drinking game, I'll put up some suggestions and you guys can either add more stuff or try this out!

 

For those who can't hold their alcohol...

 

- Drink everytime Moriarty has a sudden mood swing.

 

- Drink everytime you see John on a date.

 

 

If you want to get tipsy...

 

- Drink everytime Sherlock and John look as if they're eye-F***ing each other.

 

- Drink everytime John flirts with a woman.

 

 

 

To get really drunk...

 

-Drink everytime someone thinks John and Sherlock are a couple.

 

-Drink everytime Sherlock demonstrates emotions a fully-functioning sociopath shouldn't have (Ex: worry, care for others etc).

 

 

To get yourself in a comma...

 

-Drink everytime there's a reference or nod to the original Sherlock Holmes novels (for some help, check out "Mythology gag" on the Sherlock tvtropes page).

 

-Drink everytime there's a line of scene that could be seen/understood as/mistaken for subtext.

 

 

For the suicidal ones...

 

- Drink everytime Cumberbatch looks hot (that should kill anyone within 10 minutes)

LOL I love the rule for the suicidal ones!

 

I'm not sure where mine would go since it doesn't happen very often... in the Tipsy section I guess?

-Drink once every time Sherlock asks John to pass him something (ex. his phone). Take two drinks if the something is within Sherlock's reach.

 

And I think, this one goes under "getting yourself in a coma"? Or maybe for the suicidal instead?

-Drink every time Sherlock is a complete donkey to somebody. You don't need to drink if it's Anderson, because it's F'ing Anderson.

 

Oh! There's another one! Category would depend on the episode:

-Drink every time Anderson says something stupid.

^This, absolutely.

 

Maybe involve the purple shirt in "Getting yourself in a coma"-- Each time you see (or simply notice) it, take a shot.

I vote for all of the above *hic*

[Erika]

Brilliant! I'm surprised there isn't a Sherlock drinking game out there already. It's definitely perfect for this show.

[Banshee]

LOL All of those may me laugh! I think we might have to organise one of these alongside a series rewatch...

[Lirael]

Lol guys your ideas were great, and I loved the series rewatch. We'd be dead so bad by the time we reached Reichenbach not even the final scene would get us sober

 

Oh, and I'm posting this on tumblr, it's hilarious and I want to advertize this forum ^^

[Undead Medic]

There's an ad banner here

 

Just copy paste the HTML into a text post on tumblr, making sure to use the "plain text/html" editor available in Preferences.

[Lirael]

I didn't know about that, thanks! I had put a link to here, but the banner is of course 100 times better ^^

 

Edit: the link in the banner isn't working, oh well...

Are you viewing it from your dashboard or from your blog page? Picture links seem to be disabled in the dashboard.

[Lirael]

Oooooh, I'm such a n00b, I was looking through my dash XP

[Sherlock]

You're not the only one, I just did the exact same thing on tumblr.

[Lirael]

Thought up another one:

 

To get really drunk...(or maybe in a comma?)

 

-Drink whenever Mrs Hudson acts or is treated like a housekeeper. Take two drinks if she doesn't say "I'm not your housekeeper"

 

You're not the only one, I just did the exact same thing on tumblr.

 

Yay! what's your blog?

[Sherlock]

I have 2 Sherlocked (safe one) and thescienceofjohnlock (very unsafe). I think I may already be following you but I'm not sure.

[JessieBlackwood]

Probably this might be in the tipsy section, if you drink every time Lestrade has that exasperated look of a man trying to keep up with Sherlock's deducing...

 

Drink every time Donovan calls Sherlock a freak... probably in the same section.

 

Drink every time Mycroft adds 'dear' when he speaks to Sherlock...

[believeinsherlock]

These are hilarious. Gonna have to try it out.

[Alice Holmes]

Drink every time Sherlock starts thinking...you'll be dead by tomorrow...

How about: Drink every time there's a "Billowy Coat" shot.

[Alice Holmes]

Good One!! By the way, you have 221 posts...oh gods I am a geek...

I always grin at the 42 post mark, I suppose I must be a geek too!

[Undead Medic]

Drink every time Sherlock unwittingly annoys or upsets someone, make it a double if he does it deliberately.

Oh come on, with that one, you are dead ten minutes into the first episode!

[Undead Medic]

Drink every time Sherlock insults the Police.

 

Drink every time Molly allows herself to be Sherlock's doormat.

[Alice Holmes]

Drink every time Sherlock looks like an otter. And there is a backstory to this...

I've seen Tumblr! Mind you so has Benedict Cumberbatch.

 

(It's all Martin Freeman's fault apparently!)
