As promised, it's time to begin the first stages of a shard wide event that has proven over the last 2 years to be isanely funny, FREE and loads of quality comic relief in our UO worlds.
I wanted to wait a bit until the UOML dust settled down before we began to ask for staff/volunteers/event-host. It is a large undertaking to develope, organize and host a festival, everytime I personally say that's my last one and yet.... the pm's come, new people volunteer, old host come back and another one is planned! WOOOT!
<font color="purple"> Give me a PM or post here if interested! </font>
<font color="blue"> Historically: </font> All events are FREE and open to the Public. <font color="red"> We do depend on donations of prizes and gold from our generous public and private benifactors. </font> Festivals do best when held on Sunday late afternoon into the evenings. We hold them in a town vs. private homes/ rp towns (though some events need to be staged from a home that we gate to). Any event should never depend on just one person to run it, since we average 45-200+ participants per festival.
<font color="blue">Tried and true events: </font> Here are just a few favorites that perhaps we can find a guild or group of players to host...the all time favorite being some staged 'mock' guilde-war. {Last festival our beloved Mayors of Paxlair and Gyldenfeld were taken hostage by the fiercest Orcs on the shard, it was over an hour of ongoing warfare, bloodshedd and shouts to the wargodz.}
1. House & Garden Contest
2. Dungeon Crawls
3. Looting Races
4. Archery Events
5. Crafters Bazzare
6. Cow Tipping
7. Drunken Barrel Races
8. Gambling
9. Island Madness ( T-hunting to the max!)
10. House mazes
Finally my suggestion for this year's theme for war.....ELVES vs. HUMANS!
There is plenty of room for suggestions, positive input and experienced advice. Again this is just a feeler thread for volunteers, benifactors and event host. Another thread will be posted as more information, date, time and planning is put into place.
Thanks in advance for supporting your community!
