Everyone remember The Christmas Bazaar? Well, over the past week or so when my computers been broken I've been doing a lot of thinking and I've decided its time for another event like it to get underway. But im not really sure what to do.....

Im going to do a little fun thing on Red Nose Day, but only a little thing.

I don't really want to do another Bazaar....... yet. I was thinking about a duel tournament but thats been done. I've thought about doing a race, which would be quite fun (imagining wacky races style thing here) but thats rather difficult to control with RAs etc........

So come on gentlemen, lets put on our thinking caps and get out our smoking pipes, lets think up some ideas........ :)

Mid is doing some "The Ultimate Troll" thing where lvl 1 trolls kit themselves out with merchant junk for 1g. No SC or anything like that. Then...they fight!

We could do the same with Avalonian fighters.

Just a thaught

maybee u could organise a guild-group event

i mean: ask all participating guilds to create a party 8 ppl with a little bit of questing adventurers blood in them.

maybee even deside what the group must be made of, eg , a friar, a cleric, a paladin , a fighter, a mincer, a wizard, a sorcerer, a scout.

level of participating characters does not count. The persons count.

use a couple of NPC players fielded across our realm.

let groups complete a couple of tasks, all nicely filled in a nice story line off course, to solve a plot. Or even let the tasks , as in eight tasks to complete, allways be something class specific. as in the used classes in the groups.

let a friar go get a challice somwhere, let a sorc try to answer a class specific riddle, let wizards be tested on intelligence, let scouts stealth thrue a minefield. let mincers run a course at full speed, let the paladin try to be nobel in some sort of way. A million things, storytelling things , could be fitted into this pattern.

And if u would have acces to some rare items, from some wicked database, u would even be able to give the winning group a reward.(group with most successes) Not just a small useless piece of crap, but something worth while, as in some lvl 50 item, weapon. Extremely rare in albion.

As would most guild field their best artillery (lvl 50) make sure that the things to be done are not really determined by the skills or stats a character has, but some piece of information a character should know, some spot they could have, or would be visiting later on as well.


this is just a thaught. It would require a lot of work and a lot of cooperation from good storyteller to keep ppl entertained.
But as seen on the bazar, u really seem able to get things going pretty well.

maybe not said before, but those things were neat :)

level 1 character dm raid....

all level 1 characters start from entrance into dm and follow a pre determined route to dragons lair, whoever gets furthest wins :)

How about, level 1 highlander armsmen, best red skirts on, fight it out with handbags at 10 paces.

OR

Head to Emain, then to Ligen, the one who gets furthest into the frontier keep at ligen wins. Screenies required to prove it.

i had an idea where we albs tried to get though the gates of an enemy realm, get a zerg, and a group with pally insta's, cleric insta's BoF, SoS.

get a few groups to run in first, then charge when doors open and try to get through,

that sounded like fun to me.
or even trying to kill some of the guards at the realm keeps, although i dont know if thats possible.

What about a barrows race, lvl 1 charachter escorted to barrow etrance, person who gets deapest wins? 10 gold entry. 1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes

a treasure hunt ;) 1 grp per guild entry . marshells wityh cryptic clues spread pout ALL over albion. from snowdonia . to lyonesse to barrows to keltoi hal off corupt everywhere .. marshells have a item they give each grp as they figure out the clue and head to next stage .. the prize for eventual winner could have 1st choice of a uber item from next big raid . no lotto they just get the choice,, or maybe some other sort of prize... 500-1plat entry fee ? all funds go towards fix repairs on relic keep doors? i dunno but ther is many possibilities :)



or a tower race,,, teams againn from each guild , marshels in EVERY Guard tower in albion and teams have to race to each tower and get a item to finish a perticuler set or sumin like that...


im full of ideas but gotta go no time might post more later

I like the idea of trying to zerg a border keep or portal keep :clap:

Sounds like fun :) I'd be there, probably with a full group, for either of those.

Another idea would be chess. Ask GOA for a giant chess board in ludlow or somewhere, guild turn up with enough people for a full chess set. Lvl 50 for high lvl pieces, lvl 10's for pawns etc. Pay a 100g entrance fee for whole team.

Then have a chess tournament with winning guild getting the prize money all payed to enter. You could even have dueling to take pieces to spice things up a bit :m00:

Couple of ideas

(1) Obstacle course race throughout Lyonesse - level 1's only lol. Winner is the person who manages to agro all the Calleach Priests and sprint back to Pikes...alive !

(2) See how many ppl we can pack into DC...lets see how the Hibs react to 700 Albs in Emain lol

(3) Mass swimming race in the moat around Camelot

Grand Slalom in emain (bowl?) using animist aoe turrets as gates? lvl 1's to enter timed event so they can stop to regain health or motorcross style 20 "skiers" at a time etc. winner gets the "Tomba" award (well known slalom skier)

Camelot moat changed from water to baked beans for swimming race (the old sitting in a bath of baked beans fund raiser)

DAoc "gumball" rally lvl 1 race from sausage to snowdonia through the frontier. (probably already done this i suppose?)

SI lucky dip, pay 1g (?) for a si random stat weapon then battle it out naked except for weapon in a world cup type league (lvl 1s again probably fixed class and race so the random stat weapon makes the difference)

I like the boarder keep idea.

They did it on a US server in yggdra I think, just swarmed the keep and apparently a few of them actually made it through past the 3rd gate into midgard, though they didn't get much further then that.

If you watch the 'Heart of Albion' movie by Aladora you can see them getting raid for the charge at the end of it.

I like the chess board idea, although I would have all the pieces Lvl50, pawns being scouts and such :)
The border keep assault sounds fun too, he he, I wanna see midgard!

My favorite thing is the border keep zerg - only make it all levels not lvl 1's :)

I want to get into hibernia :)

My only worry is crashing the zone - but hey - worth a shot. Also better not announce a time and place on here unless we want to be farmed :m00:

Chess game can be a bit long, And pieces would have to be class specific, IE a Bishops played by friar. Knights arms men, Rooks (castle) paladins caster types for king and queen, And your rogue classes for pawns. Expect a Long game tho :)

Lvl 1 char race from Cotswold bind to Cear Withrin would be cool. Plenty of safe routes along road, but Plenty short cuts that would be dangerous. Loads of fun there. And would be a little quicker then cs to lyon.

LvL 1 BK zerg would be the most fun, But would have to beg for a peace day from Hib/mids to do it. Lvl 1's = easy farming for anyone.

shush

zerging a border keep would be great fun, would need to be the non pk keep though, someone tryed it on us in sauvage they'ed get raped, try it in snow and they'ed have half the realm before we knew about it
you may need a spy char to open the doors, they probably would not work for us :(
but hit it with enough people, and through a load of messes at the gaurds you might well get some people through

who's up for taking jordenheim?

How can they ban you if your doing it completely legit and not exploiting any bugs.

Heck they put the doors there not us.

because it nevver occured to mythic to put something in the game to stop what is really part of the game from happening, so of course its the players fault, yes, indeed
and i think it would be worth it for a 3 day ban :)

If we were to use lvl1 alts we'd get slaughtered by keep guards on the way there :)

Don't be daft, whats everyones facination with level 1's for events.

Use the main characters so we stand a small chance at least.

All 40+'s zerg the boarder keep, forget common keep taking tactics just press forward, hit the BoF's and instants, throw the switches and pile in, if we're lucky, very lucky, some might be able to force there way through, if not, it'll be a laugh anyway.

I think its crazy getting banned for zerging pk's and entering in enemy territory. Its part of the game ffs. What's the point in protecting the realm, going RVR, and being denied the chance to reclaim Midgard from the Norse scum in the name of Kind Arthur ?

If there's a border keep zergm count me in
