RULES for Fancy Dress ML rush! \o/

[eggy]

Ok, as you know, it's time to don yon hats and get out the DF weapons; it's fancy dress day on Sunday! \o/

To make things clear, and to stop people flooding me with PMs, below are the rules for the entire day.

You must be wearing [highlight]fancy dress[/highlight] to attend.
Aye you read correctly. Those not attending in the full spirit of the day, and simply turning up in normal attire shall not be permitted to continue. Anyone failing to make effort will be asked to strip naked, apart from thy boots (for shin splints yee must avoideth).

Fancy dress = something out-of-the-ordinary, that you wouldn't normally wear! Here are some key ideas to get you thinking:

*Merchant in Cotswolds sells roleplaying hats-n-clobber-a-plenty!
*Dye merchants give a unique and colourful look to your kit!
*Old-school crafted 94% quality equipment...dyed pink of course!
*DF weapons - cheap, cheerful and GLOWY!!!
*Dartmoor weapons!
*Sidi equipment!
*Epic armour!
*Oceanus rog drops!
*Why not pick a character or animal; dress up!!!

Don't forget; you don't have to wear things to maximise your stats...that would be silly! Shield paladins feel FREE to get that huge 2h club out...go wild!! Simply putting on a funny hat will not do. Stripping naked + funny hat...we're getting somewhere!

Groups

When choosing players for groups; don't think you have to choose opted setups...don't worry yeeself about buffs and shield-users...roleplay! If you're Snow White; find your Prince Regent!! Avast me hearties.

Battlecry

All valiant roleplayer-fancy-dress-wearing numpties have a battlecry. Be original! It is required that you yell for Arthur, for Guinevere, or even for Rolf Harris when we attack every ML mob!

Here's how to make the macro:

/macro battlecry /y FOR ARTHUR!!!! FOR EGGY!!!

Emotes

In the spirit of the event, feel free to emote as much as you like! Here's an almost-complete list for those not in-the-know!

/clap
/hug
/kiss
/surrender
/bow
/curtsey
/bang
/slit
/cry
/laugh
/rude
/raise
/slap
/salute
/shrug
/yes
/no
/induct
/beg
/present
/point
/beckon
/blush
/smile
/angry

Fighting

Let's face it; 100 pink-dress-wearing 2h level 40 Paladins will get royally toasted by various ML mobs...no worries!!! Battles will entail the following etiquette:

*I will give the go-ahead to zerg said mob
*100 nancies charge the mob
*Battlecry macro!!!!
*Emote!!!
*Use as many ridiculous styles as possible; battlemaster abilities are great for this!

Loot

Free for all, you can fight over it, apart from exceptional drops. These will be used as prizes for categories TBA on the raid!

I'll update this if I think of any more.

Enjoy the show and go get your outfits sorted out!!!

Eggy out

As im all for this and am looking forward to it immensly theres is a couple of concerns....

1) Are we just doing BG steps? or are we going to be doing group steps aswell??

Only ask as im sure a 50 person neon pink zerg can handle most of the encounters... but what if your in the grp who is just wearing boots.... for a grp encounter. I cant say wipe fast enough!

On another aside, how many chars can we bring?

 

[Aeoric]

/respect if you pull it all off !

Fancy dress = something out-of-the-ordinary, that you wouldn't normally wear!

Does that mean if I get GoV and wear it that counts as fancy dress? (I hate that Arti, never use it for a template )

 

[Varna]

Should be fun, will get tight with albion, mmmm.

 

[Rushie]

[knighthood]

[psyco]

lol this is gonna be a freakish raid

 

[Dafft]

I got my robinhood setup in me vault. <3

 

[Flimgoblin]

someone bring fraps

borgio - it'll be bg steps only.

Mainly because an eggy raid would take about 3 days to get through just the ml1.1 group steps given how many people usually turn up.

 

[Borgio Finstermoor]

Cheers flim, im sure I cna bully TMM into doing the group steps with me later

Ill bring Fraps, got the unrestricted version anyway

 

[Dimmer]

This is an important thread so bumpage
Still looking in my wardrope to find the perfect suit...

 

[Malcolm]

[Mastade]

lol wtf

 

[Toggers]

well a normal eggy raid is fast and nice, this time we try to do it with a practical joke as our weapon so we might be a litle longer to take mobs down, try locate some of his old raids know he had timeline in some of em search on FH for that.

 

[Ging]

pop out at some point although not for very long

your gay porn on the bottom shelf in your newsagent eh tog? save u asking the poor old lady to "get it down for you" ?

Yup should speed things up for you. Anyway dunno why your asking, u spend every ML stuck to me anyway!

Tog: Back, soz about that. G/f called to make sure i wasn't playing DAoC......

 

[knighthood]

lol wtf

I think its basicly an invite for you hibs to attack the Alb Relics while 200 of us are on the ML raids. Mind u what do i mean "you" hibs. Your oh-so underpowered Bainshee can prolly solo all the fucking keeps.

PS. Now against u as a player Mastade but i fucking hate that class.

 

[Toggers]

Told you already ging, just cos youre on the front cover doesnt mean im gonna buy a gay mag! Even if the feather boa does wonders for you

Actually gf has given me a free pass to play sunday as long as i pick her up at some point I put my foot down!

 

[eggy]

Yes can I stress one thing.

[highlight]I am not held responsible for any RVR attacks carried out during the raids. I don't 'care' if "57 on Berks" - if you want to defend, you know how to /bg quit and port CS.[/highlight]

We can get relics back any time; can't do my rushes with the same timeframe.
