Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
[Pre-PAX Bar Crawl] Pokecrawl Episode 1: The Adventure Begins!
Posts
We know what we're doing here. AtlusParker has always been on top of getting notification to the bars as to what's happening. You know you're in good hands when one of the bars had Polyjuice Potion and Butterbeer available for us.
Also until further notice, Team Blue is closed until the other teams catch up.

Sign myself +2 (maybe 3) up for team Bulbasaur!
I am local aswell, so hit me up if you have any questions about the area/bars.
This is gonna be awesome.
Use it wisely.
Coincidently three of my friends who don't have forum accounts also choose !Pikachu, so I guess throw me down for a +3 if you could.
Hooray! As your Professor I'd like to say welcome to the forums and the team.
contest? I volunteered because our team was lacking leadership. thankfully, now i can just drink to my heart's content.
Hey, can someone inform me as to the alcohol level in beer over there? people keep telling me i'll drink you under the table, but i assumed that alcohol levels would be as diverse as over here.
and anywhere in boston that serves absinthe?

Lord help me, I chose !Squirtle
Excellent, I feel quite welcome. As for the beer alcohol levels I'm curious about that myself. Even though I work at a Liquor Store up here in Canadia, most of the American brands are brewed by the local giants to local tastes.
Also, apparently one of my friends DID sign up for the forum without telling me. So you can change one of my +1s to Salpedro. I feel my stat bonuses shrinking.
Atlus hasn't revised the teams since your +3 post so you can still edit it to +2.
Like anywhere else in the world, it all depends on the beer you drink. You'll find the standard variety of ales, stoughts, pilsners, etc, although you'll probably find a larger selection of "light" beers on tap here.
I'm pretty sure that none of the local bars have absinthe.
thanks for the word on the beers. i can't imagine it being far off the 4-5% stuff i'm used to anyway.

Team Blue is temporarily reopened as it has 2 spots to fill before it this the soft cap again. The same holds true for Team Green.

Hooray! Would you be interested in being the other Assistant?
You can try for absinthe, it's not illegal stateside anymore. Though not guaranteed, some of the trendier / hippier joints may have it.
Depending on where we go, expect anywhere between 4 - 12 %, with the standard being ~4.5.
Of course, being in Boston, I'd recommend checking out http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/35/ to see what you might like to try. Also I've heard good things about the Beer Works, though I have no first hand knowledge.

A few of the local bars have absinthe, but the area around hynes isn't exactly what you'd consider high end bars ... They mostly cater to the college crowds. Deep Ellum in Allston, Eastern Standard in Kenmore, and Drink in Fort Point all have had Absinthe on the menu ...
As for beer ... if you're willing to make a trip to Allston you can visit Sunset Grill - home of 112 beers on tap. It's a pretty happy place for a beer geek. The food is pretty decent too.

Drinking isn't a mandatory if you're in a group. Last year we had "muggles", which is where your "if I so much as even smell alcohol I start wearing lampshades" and "I'll only have one beer but I'm really just here to hang out with people" were. They're also useful as group organizers, what with that whole sobriety thing (of course Ravenclaw made it to each bar just fine with me leading them, and that was after starting round one with a double shot of blueberry schnapps/Goldschlager, a bourbon and coke and a Cherry Potter...I'm amazed we didn't wind up in Bellevue).
That being said, if you're certainly free to hop around bars showing off your duds to the groups. Free country and all that.
Badrew +3 coming from Indiana
On a side note, is anyone else here crashing in the Boston hostel??
PPS, if that Pikachu cosplay girl is coming, I'm changing to team yellow......
And which Pikachu cosplay girl would that be as im sure there are multiples haha
Not sure how much of the crawl I'll be at, cos it depends how tired I'll be, and how far we will be walking. Tell me what's involved first!

Not sure seems squirtle is tough to find stuff in adult sizes. I am trying to design some squirtle attire (hat, shirt, etc) that fit someone like me. Though i am photoshop challenged. SO will see what happens with it as time is running out.
