transformers movie drinking game!
Transformer movie fanfiction drinking game or how to tell how bad fanfic is.
How to play - Take the first five fanfictions you see on fanfiction.net in the transformers movie section. These will be your fanfics to drink through. (though I personally recommend eating a choclate for each point instead.)
Take a drink for each item you see. Will edit with suggestions.
Decepticons
- If Barricade turns out to be good.
- If Barricade falls in love.
- If Barricade is saved by an OC
- If Starscream is saved by an OC.
- If Starscream defects to the autobots.
- If Starscream is grossly incompetant and all the decepticons do is bitch about it.
- If Starscream is obsessed with Megatron.
- If Megatron is obsessed with Starscream.
- If Megatron becomes obsessed with a human.
- If the decepticons are all terrified of a human.
- If there is an OC who falls in love with a decepticon.
- If one character is made out to be good and virtuous.
- If a decepticon gets pregnant
- If a decepticon has a tranformer in love with them (one drink per 'suitor' - 3 mechs in love with the same person = 3 drinks)
Autobots
- If an autobot switches unexpectly because 'they're evil really'.
- If Optimus Prime is incompetant.

actual fic
- If the authour doesn't break for paragraphs
- If the authour doesn't start a new paragraph for each person that speaks
- If the authour self-inserts in paragraphs. (e.g - Mary Sue wanted to date Starscream more than she could dream, [Don't I wish I could! XD] but knew...)
- If the comma disappers from the fic entirely.
- if the word count in thousands is less than the number of chapters (3 chapters should be 3 thousand, not 1300)
Scoring
stone cold sober - You have found five excellent fics. May I have links?
slightly tipsy - Couple of bad points, but good fics.
tipsy - Maybe a mary-sue has arrived. Better give that one a miss.
heavily tipsy - two or three good fics, but the others were rubbish
drunk - the fics are beginning to look like bombsites
heavily drunk - get out of fanfiction.net and onto some better sites
completely trashed out drunk - Sad, but this is the probable outcome.
