Janx Spirit is a rather potent alcoholic beverage, and is used heavily in drinking games that are played in the hyperspace ports that serve the madranite mining belts in the star system of Orion Beta.

The game is not unlike the Earth game called Indian Wrestling, and is played like this:

Two contestants sit at either side of a table, with a glass in front of each of them.

Between them would be placed a bottle of Janx Spirit

Each of the two contestants would then concentrate their will on the bottle and attempt to tip it and pour spirit into the glass of his opponent-who would then have to drink it.

The bottle would then be refilled. The game would be played again. And again.

Once you started to lose you would probably keep losing, because one of the effects of Janx spirit is to depress telepsychic power.

As soon as a predetermined quantity had been consumed, the final loser would have to perform a forfeit, which was usually obscenely biological.

Pangalactic Gargle Blasters are better

[bagofnuts]

But they take so much effort to make and I'm not even old enough to drink it.

[AngusMcLeod]

I'll tell you how I became the Prince of a town called Bel-Air

[Anna-aurion]
