Quick question with regards to the first contest: May we submit multiple photos? Have ideas for a few different themes, others might be able to improve on them! Plus, having bought all the costumes, it seems a shame to be able to use only one...

Note: To clarify, if we can/do submit multiple screenshots, should we select just one to be judged, or can you guys just pick the best?

I will go for contest #3 and #1 !

Picture will be uploaded soon. I'm guessing I have to upload it here?

#3
ringaei = Igraine
arubin = Burian
amroakid = Mordakai
onvdae = Devona
gtsaoin = Agostin
Erlbdnae gkni = King Adelbern
Cinepr ikrur = Prince Rurik

What connects them all is that their land got attacked by the charr, and they still try to fight them. They are also all served in Ascalon's Chosen.

#2
Mime game - One person will watch to give points to those who participate, he will also check if they did the right emote. If there are many people participating, there might be an option to have more of these people who watch who does it right.

It's very simple, one person does an emote, and the rest of the people try to imitate it!

Q: Would it be cheating if we copied contest #3 from others? @_@

Entering #2 and #3

Contest 2
(So hard to think of a game were even newer players can have a chance at winning)
I guess I'll go with a Simon says type game.
Leader has at least 3 sets of armor.
One set means 'Put on THAT body part' (could be several)
Another set means 'Take off THAT body part' (could be several as well)
Remaining sets means 'Do nothing to THAT body part'

Or to spice it up
Another set (in this case any body part would mean this)
could mean 'Unequip equipped parts, equip unequipped parts' (basically reverse what you have on)

Game flow would begin with the Leader fully armored and switching armor parts every round. Could swap one or more body parts, but only once per part.

Contestants start out NEKKID!


Contest 3
ringaei - Nigeria (can't believe it works)
amroakid - KOIdrama
arubin - Airbun
Erlbdnae gkni - King Aldebern
onvdae - Devona
gtsaoin - Ogiants
Cinepr ikrur - Prince Rurik

They were all in Pre-Searing! I need to play more. =(

Edit: Fleshing out mini game. :3

ReEdit: I feel the winner gets too much. Gotta flatten the dough!

Contest 1

Link: Contest Photo

Link (Photo #2): Contest Photo 2

Link (Photo #3): Contest Photo 3

Link (Photo #4): Contest Photo 4

Ariel Theius loves nature.
Ariel Theius believes in Magic of Colours.
Ariel Theius say: "Hi!"

Contest 2

"What Price is it?"

It will be competition, in which, master of event (organizer of event) will ask people: "What Price is (item name)?". Gamers must answer with the price available at Merchant.

Some examples:

- "What price is black dye?"
- "1g"

- "What Price is Obsidian Key?"
- "625g"

First person, who will write true answer on local chat will win the random item.

If you have a time and a good budget, the competition can be improved in this way: If the question was about price of "Shing Jea Key", the winner would win Shing Jea Key ; If the question was about price of "White Dye", the winner would win White Dye etc.


Contest 3

ringaei = Igraine
arubin = Burian
amroakid = Mordakai
onvdae = Devona
gtsaoin = Agostin
Erlbdnae gkni = King Adelbern
Cinepr ikrur = Prince Rurik

All of them we could meet in Pre-Searing.
All of them links in some way with "Ascalon's Chosen" Guild.

Contest #1

The theme is colors, i liked how these armors combine with the backgrounds^^

1

2

Contest #2

Location, location, location!
Through few details, partecipants will have to guess a location(only outposts of course) and rush in the international district 1 of that outpost, there they'll find someone of your team dancing and the first who opens a trade with him will receive a price^^

Of course to make things easier you should choose outposts that are not really crowded, but you could also decide to make things difficult for some high prizes and choose an outpost crowded... so that if there are more than one player dancing partecipants will have to guess

Contest#3

ringaei -> igraine
arubin -> burian
amroakid -> mordakai
onvdae -> devona
gtsaoin -> agostin
erlbdnae gkni -> king adelbern
cinepr ikrur -> prince rurik

They're all Ascalon's Chosen.

I made lot's of screenies Those 13 are only about 10% of the total number

Contest 2:

Costume guessing game:
The host would put on a set of armor and the participants would have to guess which armor it is. Then to make it more complicated the host could put on pieces of different armor sets at the same time. The prize for the latter version would have to be bigger though.

Color guesing game:
The host dyes his armor with a combination of 2-3 dyes and the participants guess what was the used combination.

Contest 3:

ringaei - Igraine
arubin - Burian
amroakid - Mordakai
onvdae - Devona
gtsaoin - Agostin
erlbdnae gkni - King Adelbern
cinepr ikrur - Prince Rurik

They are all member's of the legendary Ascalon's Chosen guild.

Contest 1:
Will add once I get a good screenshot.

Contest 2:
Well, for a game to work online with large crowds, it has to be relatively straightforward without too much room for interpretation. Since the theme is a Masquerade, and GW has given out a lot of hats/masks over the years, you could have the organizer put on a hat/mask, and then have the participants figure out which event you got it from (event name/year or just event name depending on the hat). If you need more, the costume pack masks are also available. Whoever identifies the hat first gets a point, and the person with the most points at the end wins. Pretty simple to figure out who got it first since it was done in local chat, and there are plenty of different types to keep the game going for a while.

Contest 3:
ringaei is Igraine
amroakid is Mordakai
arubin is Burian
Erlbdnae gkni is King Adelbern
onvdae is Devona
gtsaoin is Agostin
Cinepr ikrur is Prince Rurik

They were all part of the Ascalon's Chosen guild.
