This is the sign-up thread for an event which is to be held on Saturday 30th November at 2:30pm Eastern [7:30pm UK]. Registration will remain open for a couple of weeks. Details of event location, etc., will come later.
The annual Miss Siege beauty pageant will be taking place at the end of the month where we'll once again find out who the most desirable lady on the shard is. Those who enter will be assessed in four different areas and she who finishes with the highest score will be crowned Miss Siege 2013. As always, we are using independent judges from off-shard to perform the assessments, and this year we have some senior members of the Stratics news agency as well as Sosaria's most famous cook. They will be using a split of 2d and EC clients.
The contestants will be judged in the following categories, although should there be a high number of entries it may become necessary to have elimination after the first one or two rounds:
Evening wear - Like all ladies, those on Siege will want to look as glamorous as possible when needed. Here the contestants will be judged on overall appearance in their finest clothing including coordination of colours and accessories.
Talent show - One cannot rely solely on looks to survive here on Siege; every lady must be able to earn a living in some other way. Each contestant will be given two to three minutes [time to be decided once entry list is finalized] to demonstrate some talent, be it dancing, telling jokes, poetry, animal training, feats of magic, or whatever. Judges will be looking at the overall competence and originality of the display.
Combat wear - Every lady on Siege must be able to defend herself when needed. Here the judges will be looking for those that can appear both fearsome and glamorous at the same time; Beauty and the Beast indeed.
Personality - If all else fails, a lady can always try charming her way out of a sticky situation. Every contestant will be asked questions by the judges. Scores will be based on clarity of speech (that is spelling & punctuation, with allowances made if English is not a first language), humour and cheesiness of answers!
Prizes for the event will once again be furnished by our main sponsor, Max Painfactor, Sosaria's largest cosmetics company, and will include a soulstone token for the winner.
Entry Requirements:
Characters must pre-register to enter. To do so, please post here with your character name and your current title (the area, place or institution that you will be representing). Acceptable titles are:
* Your guild (e.g. Miss Arrr, Miss NEW2)
* A player or NPC town which you live near, frequent or have some connection to (e.g. Miss Vesper, Miss Barter Town)
* An area/dungeon/island that you live near, frequent or have some affinity for (e.g. Miss Despise, Miss Twisted Weald, Miss Marble Island).
Titles must be unique, so you may not choose one which has already been taken.
Good luck!
