Social Group Faire!!!!

[Naeann]

Dragonmount's Inaugural Social Group Faire is starting June 1at the General Discussions Forum! The Faire will run until June 30th. Each Social Group will be running two threads at General (see below for the list), at least one one WoT related, to help introduce themselves to new members and to get some good cross-Group interaction going. We highly encourage all members of Drangonmount to attend this event and above all else, to have loads of fun! Once the Faire is under way, links will be provided in this post so you can find each thread quickly.

 

 

The Faire will have the following activities:

 

Artists, Crafters & Writers Social Group

 

1. Emoticon Story competition - Using the WoT emoticons, competitors will write a story. Best story wins the competition.

 

2. ACW War - The Artists, Crafters and Writers are at war and it's a free for all. Post attacks and defences using writing, or crafts or works of art to battle it out. Points are given for all works posted and the poster with the most points at the end of the event wins the war! You can post a mix of all mediums in your replies, you don't have to pick one side to fight for, it's about getting the most points over all.

 

 

Aiel Social Group

 

1. Spear Toss Competition - Players compete in "throwing their spears" - i.e. answering trivia questions about the Aiel. Players will play in teams, but people can continue to be added to a team as the game goes on.

Participation is not required... but STRONGLY suggested!!

 

For participating in Shayol Ghul's activities you will get 100 points. *per activity.. if you do one you get 100 if you do both you get 200

 

For each activity from the other social groups you will get 20 points per.

 

 

To be eligible for these points you must be an ACTIVE participant. Going and posting once to each thread will get you absolutely nothing!

Recruitment is nice... we love new members in Shayol Ghul.. (for the torture chambers) I won't have people harassing others to join us but if someone expresses interest and you point the way and they say you brought them here in the new members thread you will get 20 points when they reach the first level. (when they achieve 100 points)

[Adella]

That is all WIN Nae, because as staff in 3 SG's I am making it a personal goal to participate in every thread for the Faire... So yeah, WIN!

[Naeann]

I hope the lack of replies to this doesn't mean ya'll aren't paying attention because if Adella is the only one to participate I will be beyond disappointed in this group!!
