Pivometr: Virtual Beer in Your Chat

Your friends' chat has gone quiet, and typing "how are you" feels awkward. You want something light that brings back conversation and a little rivalry. Pivometr is made for that: a joke game where chat members compete over who drinks the most virtual liters. 🍺

No real alcohol, only numbers in a ranking and a reason to tease each other. Here is how to play and what to keep in mind.

One command, one sip an hour

The main action is simple: write /beer and "drink" another portion. You can repeat it about once an hour, so checking the chat turns into a small ritual by itself.

Liters add up on your personal account and are then compared with everyone else's. The winner is the person who comes back often and does not miss their hour.

What else is in the menu

• /stats: your chat's statistics, to see who leads and how the contest goes.
• /top: a ranking of the best players and chats. You can compare your group with others.
• /ref: the referral command, which gives liters for invitations.
• /sticker: a themed sticker set.
• /bots: a list of other bots by the same team.
• /help: a short reference.

Why the game lives in a group

The bot is made for groups: the whole point is rivalry among people who know each other. One plays quietly, another starts a race, a third demands a rematch. 🏆

Add it to a large group and the ranking grows, but so does the message count. For calm work chats it makes sense to pick a separate group of friends for games.

Getting a game going

1. Add the bot to a group chat.
2. Ask members to write /beer at least once so that results appear.
3. A day later, look at /stats and /top and announce the leaders.
4. Agree on a funny prize, such as the title of bartender of the week.

The more real conversation your chat has, the better the game. The bot livens up talk but does not replace it. 😄

Referral liters without the fuss

The /ref command promises "free liters" for invitations. This is in-game currency and does not convert into money. Do not send invitations to strangers and do not turn the game into spam.

If friends ask you to stop, stop. A good chat matters more than a ranking place.

A word about the theme

The game is built around the image of beer, so it is meant for adults. Virtual liters are a joke, not a call to drink. If your chat has teenagers or people who dislike the alcohol theme, choose another game.

Remember that real alcohol calls for caution, and that drivers must stay sober. The bot knows nothing about your health and gives no advice. 🙏

Where Pivometr fits

Friendly chats where everyone knows each other and likes jokes. Small interest communities that want a light tradition. Online parties where people have gathered but have nothing to talk about.

It is unlikely to suit serious business groups: a beer ranking may sound odd there.
