>>you don't want to drink a HUGE amount of water very fast. It can kill in extreme cases (like people trying to drink several litres as fast as possible in stupid contests)>> What kills with "water intoxication" is not peeing. In the contests, the contestants aren't allowed to eliminate the water. Water intoxication - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is from the page that you cited: "Water intoxication can be prevented if a person's intake of water does not grossly exceed his or her losses. Healthy kidneys are able to excrete approximately 1 liter of fluid per hour."

Water toxicity can be caused by drinking too much water in a short period of time. This can throw off your electrolytes which can lead to hear arrythmia(sp) and organ failure. It's rare, but it can happen if people make severely bad choices with their behavior, like chugging gallons of water all at once.

I would just drink as much water as is comfortable for you that evening. No need to get crazy and drink a bunch of water all at once, it will just make your stomach hurt!
