Three Bottle Battles

There are two sets of two versions of the three bottle battle, both dating to the era of alleged drinking and pill binge. All four are canonically accepted ways of settling disputes, within the fiction and the fanbase. For a battle to be recognized, it must be played out using MGC's Bottle Battleset.

First, the "modes" of battle are alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Alcoholic battles take place using liquor of proof no less than that of vodka, traditionally in liter bottles. Smaller sizes can be negotiated. Non-alcoholic battles must use two-liter bottles of the three "epic" Mountain Dew flavors, black, Elemenstronium, and Super.

The first version allows more than two combatants, and gives each his own set of three bottles. They must be consumed to the best of his or her ability within a twenty-four hour period. The first or closest to finish wins. The second version is slightly more health friendly. Two combatants share three bottles, and the one who consumes the greater share wins.

The both versions are canonical, so it is largely a matter of preference or situation. Tournament rules favor the second, and are mostly non-alcoholic. Battlesets come with disclaimers and a hundred stack of waivers.

Rumors

• There was a vicious disagreement between James Langomedes and Brad Aviar over the direction for the third season of The Wizbits Cartoon. In what came to be known amongst the fandom as Climactic Final Battle Over Something From The Wizbits No. 333, the two settled their differences in an alcoholic three-bottle battle. Aviars used three two-liter bottles of Everclear; James brought his three favorite drink recepies: Wendigo Madness Juice, Pink-Lady-on-the-Chinese-Rocks, and the unsolidified contents of Rubian Crystal Candy Rings. The two took ten steps away from each other, fully ingested all three bottles they were offered, and then lept into a liquor-shock-fueled climactic final battle in the catwalks of the Realmworlds Printhaus until both collapsed. Brad reportedly survived due to a total-blood-transplant harvested from the three healthiest bums available, and James Langomedes had gotten more drunk than that before. So say the tales.
