Depends on the drink, # of participants (take into account the risk and reward), and $ on the table (has a gambling philosophy and minimum).

Caffeine.... uh, no.
Water ok.
Alcohol prefered (but I figure with minors, bugger).

EDIT: $35 so far? Eh..... I'll wait until it reaches my Vegas Blackjack minimum before jumping in.

Water or whatever you can bring

ao far seems about 7 people.

7 X 5 = 35

Could get better the more people we get. I'm thinking of adding the rule. Leaving the room marks you for death. That way even when the movie is over, if people are resiliant, then we can decide it that way.

How about $50/head?
How's this to get alcohol in effect: The drink IS booze. The minors toss their 5 into the pot, but are immediately killed. Less competition, more money, AND we get booze!

You are EVIL Tom. That's why I like yas. Anyway, no booze. The Hotel and Con as STRICT rules about this. I'm not getting kicked out of the Con or the Hotel.

50 bucks a head? No one would go in on it. Maybe 10, sure. But not 50. 10 is pushing it too. 5 is comfortable so no one is hurt too badly.

That's great. I would love to do said non-alcoholic-drinking-game, despite the fact that I have a notoriously small bladder.

For those of us also with notoriously small wallets(presuming I actually do make it to Ani Magic, all my "expendable" money is going towards my refusal to subside off water and ramen for a weekend), might I suggest an offer of some anime dvd or manga or some sort of related item for the "pot" instead of money? Actually, five bucks is fine by me, but I though it might be kinda cool to win stuff(or have stuff present to win).

DVD's and other items would make the pot more interesting than money. I wager my first volume of City Hunter VHS.

And I think items will keep things friendly.... lost a few good friends due to bets and pools (cries of cheating and failure to pay when one lost).

Hmmm...that sounds like a great idea. I'll get my hands on a Japanese DVD copy of BR (It has subs, BTW) and throw that in.

So is it 5 and a prize?

I like the thought of items as well. Money comes and goes, but who knows what kind of goodies you can get instead. Maybe a "whats behind door #2" could work as well.. lol j/k

Hmm i think it might be better to have money OR a prize.. I mean individually. 5 bucks may not seem like much, but for a poor soul like myself, that's a meal's worth

Ryu: Well not really, Kimiko is saying it should be strictly a prize. We should also ask the others how they feel.

nono i'm sorry. I said that wrong.. lol I meant.. people can donate either 5 bucks or a prize.. or both if they really want to. I just mean, I could donate some cool anime-ish item, or 5 bucks.. Hope that makes more sense.. hehe So the pot could be a mix of money and goodies ^_^
