as long as protein is still close to zero and you consume enough veggies, in theory there shouldn't be a problem
in terms of the lower calorie days - listen to your body

You can do it in one big meal, yes. However, I wouldn't go lower than the recommended caloric intake. The idea isn't to starve (despite the "Famine" name). The idea is to create a mild caloric deficit and deplete muscle substrate.
As for alcohol, MILD indulgence is OK. Getting hammered.... not so OK. The training here is difficult enough!! I can't even imagine going in there dehydrated/less than your best.
Please refrain from the "where did my pants go?" evenings during Famine..

I love the "where did my pants go" nights. I don't know about you, but I love to party, cranberry vodkas and wine coolers all night brah. I don't mean to brag, but I'm pretty damn good at partyin too, like my moves resemble those of a stealthy panda. Oh and did I mention the women love me. I always leave my pants in a girls room (boom). Usually i have trouble escaping the 300 club when it comes to women, but hey, beggars can't be choosers (they love the famine
