Title: Playing Aces High... at the next level.
Post by: G0ALY on February 16, 2012, 01:01:30 PM
This is a descriptive video I made of the game, And How I play it…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUUgAginaDE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUUgAginaDE)

While I encourage everyone to view this video… I ask that you do not respond to this link until you after you have gone 16 hours without food, and chugged a substantial amount of beer… As that is the condition that I was in when I recorded it… And in this country, I have the right to be judged by a jury of my peers.


CHEERS! goaly.

   I see you're building a 2nd keg (Beer Belly) at the end of video (Almost as big as mine).

The telephone was made by Western Electric for Bell Systems. I rewired it, and you can place and receive calls with it. Oddly, the pulse system still works with our phone company.

It’s funny to watch people who visit try to make a phone call with a rotary dial phone. Some of my kids friends have never seen one before.

PS… I blacked out the numbers, because I don’t want you mugs trying to call and interrupting me while I am playing the game.

Semp, I never slur my speech after a few beers… I don’t think so much about what I am saying and it comes out much easier.

PS, you didn’t hear the first dozen or so tries that I found to be unacceptable… Each one included the beer. 


This might be a cheap way for me to add a beer fridge to my desk, I have an old wooden antique desk I use, I was going to buy a mini fridge for beer and put a stand next to my chair, but I like this option - how do you keep the beer cold, do you throw 1qt bags of ice into it?

I used to have a Mini-keg with a cooler box - basically it was a fridge build for kegs (early style models) they worked great except they were rather expensive, it came with the cooler and 3ft hose that you tap into a mini-keg like Heineken or Newcastle and it was great until the cooler box would stop getting cold, I tried to get spare parts for them but they frankly just costed to much.

There are cheap knock off "coke machines" for sale under $100, almost bought one to put beer in it :D

It’s a 5 liter Heineken mini-keg inside of a 16 quart Coleman cooler. The keg is connected to a full sized beer tap that mounted on the outside of the cooler. Ice keeps the mini keg cold.  Full instructions can be found here.

Slate, your comment has encouraged me to lose weight. I did this in the fastest manner that I could think of… I shortened the video by 10 seconds.

According to the thread title Aces High has levels. I guess I must still be on level one because I don't recall ever seeing a level two.

You can attach the mini-fridge to the desk and insulate it.  I just happened to need mine to have a temp-controlled fermentation space  :aok

I'll post pics tomorrow.

Along with Goaly's beer tap is the gaming chair he made years ago... I just happened to save the picture he posted MANY years ago and found it recently on one of the hard drives in the attic.

Yes, if memory serves, this IS Goaly.
