First of all, let me be blunt:  DO NOT POST SUGGESTIONS TO
THE FFML, OR I WILL IGNORE THEM.  I cannot emphasize that 
enough.

Now that I've said that, Hi, folks!  Sean Gaffney here, 
editor of the Ranma 1/2 Fanfic drinking game.  I last
updated this game one year ago, and it's about time to 
update it again.

Version 2.0 is available for perusing on my homepage,

http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/6529/drinkgam.txt

If anyone has any suggestions as to what should be added,
E-MAIL ME PRIVATELY and let me know.  I'll listen to all
the responses I get, and try to get out Version 3.0 by 
mid-July.

A couple of points to keep in mind:

1) This is a fanfiction drinking game, not a Ranma drinking
game.  Anything which comes from the manga or anime is not
an option.  Examples would be, "Akane mallets Ranma, 1 drink".
That's a no-no.  There's already a Ranma drinking game out 
there for the anime and manga (well, the anime only, I think.)

2) I am an evil bastard and my word is law.  I am the sole
judge as to what gets on this game.  If you mail me 100
suggestions, and none of them get in the final version, please
don't take it personally.  However, if you *do* want to take 
it personally, I take sole blame.  Think of me as Tybalt in
regards to accepting suggestions.  Only 20% at most will make
the cut.

3) The authors section.  I'm even more strict here.  The sheer
number of Ranma authors who have now written many, many fics
is almost ungodly.  So many, in fact, that I may cut the 
section entirely.  Be sure, when you suggest, that it is an
author that has gotten SO important in the minds of fanfic
writers in the past year that he or she deserves to be on it.

4) Again, don't post suggestions to the list.  I give full
permission for Tybalt to ban this thread if ANYONE tries to
post it here.  E-mail *me* at gaffney@iconn.net with your
suggestions.

5) Despite my serious and vaguely fascistic tone above, this
is meant to be a fun game. ^_^  Try and be funny, and roll
with the ideas.

6) By the way, thanks go to John Biles, Thomas Jeffreys, Nick
Leifker, and Harvey Torrance Griffin, whose many, MANY 
suggestions the first two versions ensured this game would be 
even more fun than it is. ^_^

In any case, I now throw open the nominations.  Look forward
to hearing from you.
