Title: Story Time!
Post by CPG on 01/04/04 at 00:26:11

Yes children, story time. Story time once a week.

Several teams (of two) get together each week for story time. Each team is given a topic/s or idea/s or both to start out with. They then have to improvise a story from what they have. Teams will be paired up against each other and whoever creates the best story wins and goes on to the next round. Winners will be determined by an audience or staff members, whichever is applicable. Different themes of stories would also be told. Usually improv is just making up random, silly stuff. Creating thoughtful, provoking stories at a whim would also be a challenge.

Now, here's what all the Nightmist community will want to know. What does the winner get? Well, I was thinking that if the Nightmist Gazette or whatever comes out, each week's winning stories will be published in it. I think satisfaction is a nice prize, but that's not enough incentive for players. Maybe an amulet for each member of the winning team. +1 to wis and they keep it for a week. Or maybe a badge thing that says they won the event.

I think that pretty much sums it up. Feel free to ask questions about it.

Thanks to Issy for helping me come up with the idea. It was a joint effort.

sounds like a waste of time to me don't think many ppl will compete and it takes alot of time for staff to judge it
