What makes a party?

[kingdelete]

I was having a discussion with my brother earlier and we had different ideas what would be labled as a party or a get together. I think you don't need food/drink for it to be party, he things that would only make it a get together. So my question to you escapists is...what would you need for it to be a party or just a get together.

At the bare minimum, you need one person.

Yes, you totally can party alone.
...
Shut up!

I usualy take front line fighters, a cleric, a mage and a rogue. Failing that some beer, wine, nibbles and decent tunes.

Cool story bro! I think a "get together" becomes a party when the music becomes almost too loud to talk over! Also dancing! and shots! And I'm sure there needs to be a minimum number of people gathered! Like 10! Less than 10 and its just a rowdy get together!
Hanging out is complicated!!!!!


Edit: Also only women bring nibbles to anything! Men should only bring beer or spirits! Or fireworks! Or just explosives!

All you need is a few people who think it's a party. Everything else is added bonus.

well me ofcourse :-D ha!

seriously though I would say good music, good friends and a halfway decent venue. drinks and other assorted pleasures all optional. dressing up smart is also good for a change, just don't wear a suit that's too expensive for fear of alcohol spillage

A group of people who go out killing NPCs and other players together.
Oh, you meant the other kind of party?

What about all of the above?

 

[DazZ.]

People.
That's about it.

Drugs help though.

It's not a real party until someone dies.

OT: Honestly I think it is a party when you have a bunch of people in an area who are either dancing, drinking, gaming, etc. Also there is usually loud music being played.

My friends, some pizza and drinks, and Dj Hero 2. If we get bored of that we go hit each other with those Nerf swords, axes, maces, and shields.


Don't say that that's nerdy until you've actually tried it. Sword fighting is hilariously awesome.

Drugs, whores and chicken.

*claps hands in triumph* THAT'S where I've been going wrong! I knew forgot something!

I'll make sure to bring chicken next time.

An excess of 4 people + entertainment source (can be games, dancing, scantily clad members of the opposite sex ect.) = party.

Failing that, 2 warriors, a rogue, a cleric, a mage, and an archer.

 

[Ladette]

Booze and babes? Maybe some pretzels and jello shots?

Ninja'd.
Really, I think you can call a group of people getting together anything you want. If you are having fun together, do you really need to worry about semantics?

Good company

 

[DefunctTheory]

I'd imagine you need a priest, a tank, and a few DPS to make a full party.

Serious Answer:

Good company
