I was going to claim that I´ve never played drunk, but I just remembered I´d be lying. I did once. I had been drinking Chivas with a friend, who got roaring drunk, despite my warnings about him being hitting on the bottle too much (it was glaring obvious by his intonation, and his euphorical utterances about "somesuch ******"), and had to tend to the posterior "crying drunk" phase, which made the already annoying situation even more annoying by utterances about "the misery of the world" and the like. I applied my water cure (AKA: force him/her/yourself to drink as much water as you can, as this way you will both avoid the dehydration that takes place when alcohol inhibits the secretion of the Antidiuretic Hormone, and will help your liver to metabolize alcohol, as the Alcohol dehydrogenase needs water to do it´s magic. It works most of the time, and is my standard method of dealing with hangovers)
Anyway, after doing that I went to my room, not dim-witted but not totally sober either, and I couldn´t sleep, so I loaded MTW. I was playing as the Byzantines against a humongous Golden Horde army. I don´t recall the details, but I do recall that at one point I was getting beaten and I thought something on the order of "what the hell, cavalry charge", which steamrolled through mongol archers and horse archers, and killed the general, which caused a general rout.
