A call for competition

[DecoLamb 959]

Well since my character Mirabelle, or Mira as most call her now, is the new warmistress she has a lot of expectations to live up to. Since she is a whitewash halfblood with little physical strength, she is not well liked by part of the orc community. I intend to have her win their hearts by playing to their hearts.

So im looking for ideas for contests and competitions that would make orcs very happy.

A few ideas I already have are these;

Arena tournament (that one is a given.)

Drinking contest: we'd basically have two people sit at a table and roll 100 after each drink. If you roll under 20 you pass out and you lose.

Drunken pit fight: we get everyone hardcore hammered until they are staggering, stick them in a pit and let them fight until only one orc is left standing

Jousting: orcs would stand at either end of a log up in the air over a pit. They will then charge each other and attempt to knock the other orc off. It will be done in classic tournament style until there is one winner

Thats all I got for now, what are your ideas for fun competitions?

Team battles, like war games. The whole of Krugmar could be the battlefield, but each team would receive a "set".

for example each team has 3 members and is given: a wooden sword, a stone sword, a leather set, a iron sword, 2 bows and 10 arrows.

Something like that, to promote team work and stuffz.

You just sparked something wonderful in my head. What about calling in Warefare Trials or something. The winning team becomes champions for the week and gets some nice stuff, maybe sets of diamond gear or something. I want all the game to have epic prizes.

Im even thinking about a few obstacle courses with and without puzzles. Things that serve as training for the orcs as well as have fun. I want to do a lot with ale too. A drunk orc is the best kind of orc.

I think obstacle courses are a bit over used and bland, but i just suck at jumping so i dont know :S

Fight while drunk? hehehe.

War games is One f the most popular sports we got.Its currently used as military pratice but many orcs want to build teams and do a litle tournament.

I was gona make One but im kinda busy and will only be able to do it next week.My main idea was that each clan picles Their 3 best fighters and they have to batle against each obter.Te winner would get 6k and free ale for a month.But i want Better prises Then only 2k for each orc.So if you sponsored it to increase the prises me and many others would like it

Actually the idea I had with the obstacle course is team runs, like in one of the stories I read. I wanted to recreate the trial course that the younglings had to do to prove themselves adults.

And after that, probably make everyone run it drunk....

I kind of see Mirabelle using her weakness to push everyone forward a bit too, i can imagine her pouring ale into tankards for the orcs and kinda pepping them up by insulting them with, 'If latz cannot do it drunk, then latz less orc than me!'

And I would LOVE to sponser your competitions Craotor!

...and 'groka.. yes.. yes you did.. you tend to fall asleep a LOT.

Games that all go by chance is pretty dumb imo, Make a poll deco for ones people like

[Ned Lud 1260]

King-of-the-hill, on a mound or series of platforms with pitfalls, cactus and jumping ledges. If you get knocked off onto the sand, you take a drink. The game ends when all but one have been klomped, fallen or drunken themselves to death.

I also had this idea for a pretty interesting arena battle. It would require a custom-built arena. You build a fighting ring with 6-10 or so separate chambers, each blocked off by a gate. You put a fighter inside of each one of them, all at the same time. There are a few orcs on the outside that control the switches to open the gates. You open the first two at random and the first fight begins. The victor rests up, eats, then you open another one at random. They fight. Victor rests. Then another random one, and so on until there's a single victor.

I like the jousting idea. Maybe we could even mix it up a bit. Take pairs of opposing fighters and put two on a log and two in a ring underneath it. When the fight begins, all four go at it, so that the player getting knocked off is falling into two other fighters, one friendly, one enemy. Whether two on two or four on four, maybe we allow the two log fighters to draw wooden swords once one of them is knocked off. I think it'd be pretty fun to be groundfighting and then have two dudes dropping in from out of nowhere swinging swords.

Kill the orc with the sword/axe. Fill a small arena with orcs and lob a single wooden sword into the mob. Whoever picks up the sword gets pummeled by the others. When he drops it, the next guy gets his ass kicked, then the next and so on.

Just some ideas. We pretty much arena battle by default, but it'd be nice to mix it up a little.

Once I get a good handful of ideas I'm going to make a poll and pick from the most popular once.

As for the drinking competition, it's more for RP and fun than actual competition. Games of chance might be a little stupid, but I can kind of see taverns getting a LOOOOT of business when they host them! Not to mention people competing to be the best drinker in the nation might be some good RP.

Now that I think about it. The drinking game can be held at my inn... However you will have to pay for the ale :). I'll go out on a little venture to get some more buckets

I would love to join in on stuff like this :D To bad Morgoka wants my head, maybe I can come join in oocly :P

DECO WAN MOAR IDEAS NAOW D:<

[Ned Lud 1260]

Even the most basic drinking game is great. That's pretty much how Chaecus Braveaxe and I became friends. We had a drinking contest until I passed out and wound up at the monks.
