For the franchise as a whole:
- Down a glass every time you beat the boss but in the cutscene afterwards it turns out they were just holding back and you actually lost and/or they run away. This includes the card games.
- Down a glass every time a girl likes an older boy but he only sees her as a younger sister
- Down the entire bottle whenever Ouroboros wins, or at least gets what they want.
- Take a shot whenever you complete a quest.
- Take another shot if the quest involves finding a missing cat or fixing orbal machinery.
- Down the entire glass when you complete a chapter.
- Take a shot if you meet Bleublanc or have to do a quest related to his thieving antics. The thieving quest stacks with the above rule.
- Take another shot if he appears in disguise.
- Take another shot if you have to fight him.
- Take two shots if he appears in his default form but with no mask.
- Take a shot for every character who have other names (like Silver Streak for Scherazard, Heavy Blade for Agate, etc.). Since Falcom has a hobby of including this, make sure to have a fresh liver ready to be transplanted.
- Take another for every time someone refers to that character by their title, one more if it's preceded by them saying their full name.
- Two shots if it's unplayable character.
- Down the bottle if the person themselves doesn't appear in the game their name is mentioned.
- Take a tiny little sip whenever a character's CP increases be it from getting a turn, hitting enemies, getting hit by enemies, CP-increasing accessories, crafts or items/food (you can choose up to two conditions if you want to prevent your untimely death). Multiple characters getting CP simultaneusly counts as one sip unless you're a masochist.
- Take a shot when a human boss pulls The Battle Didn't Count in the following cutscene.
- Take a shot if the second game of the arc has the protagonist escaping from captivity.
- Down an entire bottle when the game pulls off a Wham Episode. Prepare a few livers for this.
- Down an entire bottle when a professor is revealed to be a villain.
