Im am just curious to see what kind of events people of lismore would like to see, im not asking for specific ideas just a general thought, we obviously have the usual combat events that everyone enjoys, but if theres anything else you lismorians would like to see, then post here
-
My general thoughts shall be specific ideas. I am an opposite!
~ A market event every once in a while, where players actually interact with other players/NPCs.
~ Interesting recurring events (such as a bi-monthly (RL time) faire/carneval, other common entertainment)
~ Festivals (for whatever).
~ Hunting & fishing contests.
~ Arena fights (for entertainment, or possibly as part of a criminal's sentence, etc.)
~ Natural disasters (typhoons, hurricanes, massive frikkin' thunderstorms-- we're at sea level! Could cause environmental damage, lead to other events where players rebuild, etc.)
~ Schooling! A recurring event (or maybe even a dedicated area w/ players) where people can undergo education... an official system, if you will.
~ City councils, where people's characters can voice their concerns & issues to the island's leadership and plead for a cause, and so on.
~ Political corruption, intrigues and so on! Wouldn't it be awesome if there were bad guys in the island's leadership subtly manipulating shizz for their own agendas? Clever!
-
Tenaar, hate to point these out but.... There already is a faire/carnival that visits, usually it's tried to be scheduled when other events aren't going on and the players of the carnival folks can get on (last month's was canceled due to illness).... the temple for one already does festivals around the RL holidays, or at least ursa gets an excuse to decorate the temple up.... Ashtyn hold city councils whenever rl and sl let him... and the zenko (atm it's all kablewy though) did have a school, most others 'home school' their children, considering the time frame we go by that's really about all that'll ever be happening for most characters
some of the others though do sound plausible, i don't know how well a natural disaster would go over though, but i like the market event idea

I like the first idea, but we pretty much already do/have all of the others. They aren't seen, most of the time, due to lack of interest from our players, though. We get alot of requests as staff, and then when we try to do them, nobody shows up half of the time :P
-
Maybe we can coordinate the Carnival leader and a market event as one event for a few days.

Only partly!

I know, I was just throwing random ideas off the top of my head as they fell in.

Must really suck DX
People should be more active in here! If everybody's off to other sims while Lismore's inactive, it'll stay inactive!
That done pissin' me off, 's what it does!
...And for some strange, unrelated reason, my perverted side wants to suggest more breeding parties >_>
...
I am not creepy at all.

You already are single handedly populating the island with your kids! I mean, you got six with Bahiti alone!

I vote we spay or neuter him depending on the sex of its characters

DX!!!
/me hisses viciously and retreats to the mountains to have more children!
-
Prehaps an event to hunt and neuter bahati could be organised.
Onto a more serious point, something that had crossed my mind is an island wide tournament, using the Area by the Inn, would be done with a ladder and the winners would get some sort of prize. Something along those lines of interest to folk?
-
Sounds good to me! count me in
-
Tournament sounds amazing, so long as a clear set of rules making sure no-one dies is in place, as well as guards who will intervene if anyone DOES try to kill the opponent.
-
The thing by the inn is really supposed to be more of an auditorium.. Why not the Zenko's arena, when it's been cleaned?
-
People are welcome to use the city's amphitheater for their events, be it a play, lectures, demonstrations, duels, etc...
-
Ya way back when i came to Lismore, before the Zenko Arena, the Amphithetre by the Inn was what was used for duals, i will work on a set of rules and such later today if i feel better (sick as a dog right now) and see what ya'll think.
-
I did eventually warm up to the tail sale idea :3.
-
Im going to begin work on the Tournament idea, it will be slow going as IRL is being a real bitch atm due to my depression, however, i am determined to get something started, although i may wait until after the holidays, depends how it goes.
