"For centuries, a dispute has been waging! The endless war between cultures, an ongoing fight, all about one single topic: Who are the superior gods - The Roman or the Greek?
This must come to an end and this weekend, this question is going to be decided once and for all!

Let me introduce myself: I, Dionysos, Greek God of the wine, insanity and festivity and my fiercest Roman enemy, Bacchus, will, in the following, be setting the framework and rules for this epic battle!!!

So read carefully, for the sake of your destiny is at stake!

We are inviting you to ancient Olympia, where the strongest of athletes have been competing against each other for ages and where it is all going to be decided!"

"Now, let me, Bacchus, speak:
Justitia has just assigned you to your team!

Please, now, choose a character that suits you well and introduce yourself as either one of the ancient Greek or Roman God's!

You may also choose an outfit that suits your side, be it white dresses for the Greeks or else a red wardrobe for the Roman empire!

Unfortunately, even Gods have their weak spots... As for me, Bacchus, it is that I tend to swear a lot under the influence of the good Roman wine. Therefore, if I shout out "damn it!", I shall be 'punished' by taking a big sip from the nearest alcoholic beverage.

So is it for all of you, each of you must also state a word that is forbidden for you and that can only be annulled by taking a gulp of a strong spirit! (In Germany, we call it Schnapswort 😄)"

"For me, Dionysos, as I am never in charge, I may never mention the word "sorry"☝🏻or else I need to drink the drink of oblivion...

One last commandment, though, and then all is set:


You, as you will participate in a number of heroic tasks, will need strong reinforcements in order to do so.
Make sure, that you provide yourself with a reasonable amount of provisions (alcoholic drinks) for the event. I, as the god of wine and delight, recommend (per two persons) one bottle of a tasteful spirit and at least one box of your favourite beverage, ideally in containers with 0.3 Litres volume."

"So, let me conclude, since my opponent Dionysos tends to loose himself in too much babbeling:

- Find a Greek/Roman God (depending on your team)
- Introduce yourself with that name to the group
- State your "Schnapswort"
- If you like, find a white, resp. red outfit
- Buy a lot of alcohol in 0.3L containers and have your favourite liquor at hand!

And then...

LET THE GAMES BEGIN! 🏆🍻"

"I am APOLLO, worshipped as the god of the sun as well as the arts!
Gratefully I accept the invitation of the gods Bacchus & Dionysos. I´m pleased to join the upcoming Olympic Contest of Gods against the Romans and I'll bother you with my presence!
Pure tongue I name the word "good" to my liquor word!
To a pleasant competition vowed gods!"

"I also express my gratitude to the great gods, Dionysus and Bacchus.
With great honor I accept the invitation to the Olympic Drinking 🍷 Games against the Greeks! 🇬🇷
I am ARTEMIS, the Goddess of the Hunt 🏹 and in the heat of the moment am inclined to use "F***(-ing)" as my "Schnapsword"
I am looking forward to this epic tournament 🏟️ & my fellow competitors!
Here´s to fair competition & as already Poseidon 🔱 used to say; May the better ones win! 🏆"

"As you might have already expect it, I am APHRODITE, God of the Beauty & Love. I am proud to got invited from Bacchus & Dionysos to the Olympic Drinking Games. With my hidden skills, we - the Greeks - will fight & win against the Romans. My „Schnapswort“ will be „omg“.
May the prettiest win!"

"This is VESTA, member of the Red Roman Heroes and battelling against the Greek this Saturday 🍻 Vesta is very glad, as the goddess of home and hearth🔥🍞, that she is invited to a home with oven. Thus, "oven" will be her forbidden word. May the best team win 💪"

"ZEUS wants to thank his dear son Bacchus and Dionysus for the opportunity to display his and the Greek superiority over the petty roman trash. As ruler of All and Everything "I" am the greatest. To celebrate my greatness "I" will DRINK!

(Apperently bold does not work with photos 😅)"

"Oh, I was so busy working the whole day! - God damn yeah, it’s weekend! My GodJob is very important and it’s not so easy to be in time. I‘am carry you’re messages from North to South, from Est to West in a short time. Sometimes the you get a wrong message, but that’s no problem, anotherone get a wrong message too. In addition to my job, I‘m also responsible for the financial gain, commerce, travelers, luck, trickery and thieves.
But there is one more thing…my Schnapswort is lost in the post, so I can’t find it now.
See ya later gods!

"It was with great joy that I received the invitation of Dionysus and Bacchus from my servants 📜

I am POSEIDON, the Greek god of the sea 🔱

and I happily accept this invitation to fight the Romans!⚔️

Due to my strong expression of cheerfulness,

I was assigned the schnapps word "funny",

after which I have to delight in the cool drink. 🍷

Now I will take advantage of the phase of the waning moon and retreat into the depths of the ocean to be ready for the epic battle against the Romans at the new moon this weekend. 🌔

May the better win! 🏛"
