Thread: Winterfest 5115

  1. Default Winterfest 5115

    This year's WINTERFEST has a new host. House Argent Aspis will be running Winterfest 5115. White Haven was a wonderful host the last three years, and a huge thank you for that.

    The new website for Winterfest can be found at [ http://gs-winterfest.weebly.com ]

    WINTERFEST 5115
    December 10th - 13th
    Icemule Trace

    As the years past, we'll be having a Frost King and Queen. Nominations will open November 1st and run through the 14th. With the option for f2p accounts, we are hoping to get a wonderful group again of people running. We'll only have 10 spots open (five male, five female). This is a good time to ponder if you want to be this years Frost Royalty.


    We are looking for individuals or groups who want to participate in this years Winterfest. If you're interested, please fill out the form at [ http://gs-winterfest.weebly.com/participants.html ] or find an Argent Aspis officer. Those who participated last year will automatically receive an email requesting to participate this year. If you participated last year, no need to fill out the form.

    In two weeks time, players will be able to submit a nomination form for their character. You should consider the dates of December 10th-13th before filling out the form. It is asked that you're available at least the evening of December 10th for the crowning ceremony (opening of Winterfest) and the evening of December 13th for the Yule Ball (closing of Winterfest). Then attend any events in between when possible.

    Like last year, Beacon Hall is traveling North to participate in the celebration of Winterfest! I wanted to post ahead of time to give people time to prepare for this event:

    Help Beacon Hall Archive celebrate Winterfest by telling your favorite children's story on the 12th of Eorgaen at 8:30pm on Feastday. Take a break from the harsh cold and come inside to get warm in BHA's tent which will be located outside the southern most entrance of the Gaming Hall. To make the evening especially exciting, judges will choose the most outstanding entries, awarding prizes and choosing one lucky winner to be published by the Archive and they'll also receive their own hard copy of their book!

    OOC note: Use the ACT and SMILE commands to bring your original children's story to life. How you present is up to you, just keep it in genre and IC--it is a children's book though so whimsy and fun are encouraged. Please try to keep presentations to 3-5 minutes.

    Example:

    Kayse smiles at the crowd as she removes a book with torn pages from her satchel and opens it to the first page where she loudly states the title, "Snuffy and Fluffy get Drunk."

    (Kayse turns the page and holds up the book to the audience displaying a watercolor painting of a fluffy brown aardvark with donkey-like ears on a thin, elongated head and a one-eared rabbit with dappled grey fur and an absurdly pink nose--they appear to be sword fighting.)

    Kayse recites fondly:

    "Snuffy and Fluffy were an odd duo, but nothing could tear them apart.
    But how these unlikely creatures became friends--was a funny start."

    If you have any questions you can contact members or officers of Beacon Hall, post it on the forums, etc...

    Hope to see you guys there!

    You try hard not to grin.

    Speaking to Kaldonis, you say, "That explains a lot..."
