Before we get into the results, first a great big thanks to the following:
Kemor - Who sprung into action and came up with a stunning Ludlow setup
Marshals - Our officials who ensured that mad brawling was kept reasonable (or at least judged)
Delket - For taking his Dragon raid and turning up with the best of tonight’s free give aways
Donators - Special thanks to all those who threw items at the vault
Crafters - Who ensured that there was something to buy at the right price
Everyone Else - Never a finer bunch of nutters, not a single whine, or problem in 8 hours solid of events.
The events proceeded without hitch, first up was the lvl xx duelling tourney, which met a very high standard, no single champion could last many rounds.
Joint Champions of lvl xx (well 50 really)
Ardas (nearly got top but went LD
)
Straef
Elitestoner
Many came close, quite a few dominated, but the above 3 ruled.
Ultimate Warrior of lvl 20 duelling
Khalai
Middleweight Champion of lvl 30-35 duelling
Chou
All champions received the pick of as much loot as they could carry or desire from the communal vaults.
During the tourneys, a cash lottery was run, 64 poeple bought between 1 and 30 tickets, and lord heavens above the 1st orderly queue in prydwen history was formed, backed up around the pub. Prize fund went to Umemin, for a total payout of 3.49 plat (excel audit carried out).
To level the playing field somewhat, everyone got naked and steamingly drunk and crowded into the Bar for a mass Bar Fight!!! Many shouted, "what's the rules", shortly before picking their teeth of the floor. People were thrown through the windows, there was whisky, chairs, blood, and at 1 point pigs flying everywhere.
Ultimate Bar Room Brawler award had to go to Sevorina who was the only one who managed to not spill her drink (pass back the healing potion) while head butting some poor naked Icconus face <shudder>. Not a woman to meet in a dark ally.
After the violence, the gifts were given out, just about everyone walked away with something they wanted, litterly hundreds of items were handed out. When word was spread that fabled MP Crafted, Dragon Drops, Sidi Drops, and Respec Stones were being offered (everything for the measly price of a smile - free), albs couldn't buy their horse tickets to Ludlow fast enough.
To bring the festivities to some semblance of an end (the pigs needed to be stolen back to Yarleys, and the Archery Range was littered with passed out highlanders) The Naked Conga snaked its way down to Prydwen, for The Great Prydwen Bridge to Camelot Bridge Swim!!!
After 1 false start, with hundreds leaping like lemmings, we got everyone off without hitch. Teams of Marshals ran the banks to ensure fair play, and to a man droves of Albions swam the gruelling race the entire distance.
Result Placing Was as follows:
1st Place Cykel (with Mastery of Water IV) <Title of Undisputed Swimming Champion of Albion>
2nd Place Troryn (with Master of Water II)
Joint 3rd place by dead heat - Uriell and Tiffa
4th Place (by late disqualification) - Ninjitsu
Top 2 places were levelled off and receive Whiskey as prizes (they are my PL guildsman, and that's all they ever ask).
3rd place award of Respec stone was graciously handed over to Uriell by Tiffa in the spirit of tonight’s sportsmanship, 4th place award has pick of vault items to be received.
Once the exhausted contestants dried themselves off and put on their armour, to a man they ran to Renairs to assist the recapture of the keep, with the final conclusion to the evening a Whiskey fuelled Highland Victory in RvR for Albion.
Well done everyone for participating, we had literally hundreds turn up throughout tonight, and everyone I feel was rewarded both in terms of fun, and the items they always wanted.
All in all, a fine Highland Games for Phoenix Legion's second year anniversary, can't wait to do it with you all again <salute>.
Screenshots are getting hosted soon, complete with I believe, "Bar Fight The Movie", and the Photo Finish picture for joint 3rd place of the swim
