[QUOTE="Tharivious_Meliamne, post: 2564821"] Open mic night/band contests - As I believe I mentioned earlier in this thread, this could be a great amount of fun. It would encourage characters without bands to work toward forming one and adding a layer of roleplaying to the prep time for the contest. Cage fights - Considering the setting material we have in place, this seems like a good idea to me. One main thing that would need to be decided beforehand in my opinion would be scoring the fights and/or refereeing them. It would depend on how far we want them to drift from practised martial arts contests held within in an enclosed barrier (probably more like metal bars welded together) and an Ultimate Fighting Championship style tournament which could get quite bloody (where the cage is more like a chainlink fence). Probably would be best to hold this one with male and female character brackets due to modern social opinions of violence, especially since if it gets done, we would likely have enough interest from characters of both genders to make the brackets varied enough. I'd be happy to help organize a tournament of this sort if the staff would like a hand since this sort of thing is right up my alley. I'm familiar enough with both styles of the cage to pull something together along either line. :plotting: Dances - These would probably be more successful in the Meeting Place than they were in the fantasy rooms simply by atmosphere alone. A nightclub is more condusive to the concept than a medieval-esque setting for the most part I think. Drinking contest - It would be tricky to manage realistically, but it could be done. It could either be done with technical formulas based on a weigh-in, or just freeformed. Festival and theme nights (grouped together since a Festival would fit in as a theme really) - I'm kind of neutral on these, simply because I think some of the themes could hinder things, while others might be booming successes. It would be a trial and error thing, like the way the ISRP dances used to be; some were well trafficed, others weren't. All of the 'incidental' ideas are great, any one of them would be fun to see played through. [/QUOTE]
