[H] WINTER VEIL IN WINTERSPRING
((A Cross Realm Horde Holiday RP Party Spectacular))
December 16th, the first Day of Winter Veil, at 5pm PST | 6 MT | 7 CST | 8 EST

Come and join us in celebrating the feast of Winter Veil in snowy Winterspring! Meet people you've never met, hailing from across Azeroth! In addition to good food, booze and company, we will be hosting a number of exciting activities throughout the night! Sign up now to participate!
((This event will have people and groups from at least 3 different servers in attendance!))
Blind Date Auction - Polar Bear Brawl - Group Performances

Blind Date Auction: Sign up with one of the sheets in the envelope below between now and the party to be an auctionee! Auctionees will be given anonymous descriptions and bid on by partygoers, agreeing to spend some time with the winner (although they are neither expected or required to do more than that)! Buyers are limited to spending only 5000gp overall (you cannot just buy every auction if you're rich). All proceeds will be used as prize money for future events.
((If you are interested in being bid on, please fill out this form: https://goo.gl/forms/byYMUe8bQVl4sLmZ2 ))

Polar Bear Brawl: They say nothing warms the soul like a fight in the frigid cold! A seasonal tradition, this dueling tournament involves stripping down to the bear minimums and duking it out in the frigid snow! While weapons are allowed, nothing else is. Contestents will be inspected before matches to ensure they aren't carrying any jewlery or other items which might afford them an advantage. Bystanders are encouraged to throw snowballs, to add an extra element of chilly fun! Winner gets a special mystery gift!
((If you wish to participate in the Polar Bear Brawl please submit this form: https://goo.gl/forms/lEzh80OhTMwCmDXk2 ))

Group Performances:
Everyone has a different way of celebrating the season, and we want to give you a platform to show everyone yours! We want to encourage different organizations to sign up and show off. Have a few people recite a story, or sing a song or something entirely different!
((Limit one performance per Guild. We will coordinate with you about the performance itself. Performances should be roughly Winter Veil themed in nature, no longer than 15 minutes and be relatively non-offensive, sign up here: https://goo.gl/forms/q42lTedg1nsgs3553 ))

((As this is a cross realm event, we will need to group everyone. You must whisper Ohee-Ravenholdt, Kejala-Ravenholdt, or Raelanaa-Twisting Nether for a group invite at the time of the event. If you are planning on attending please comment on this thread so we can get a rough tally of who's coming.))

"Heart of the Authors"
WoW short story writing contest on WrA: https://us.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/20759292156
Run by Bridges-WrA
Deadline: Sunday, December 31, 11:59 WrA time.

Rules:
  • A work of fiction, please. No anecdotal life experiences. Your short story is written on whatever inspires you. War, Noir, Romance, Action, Thriller, Suspense, Insightful, etc.
  • Blizzard universe setting only. WarCraft, StarCraft, Diablo. It would be odd to use a different setting in order to win a Blizzard item.
  • Reasonable length. Don't mistake brevity for potency, or length with quality. Write as long as you need to make your story feel alive to you, but keep in mind I'll have a lot of submissions to go through.
  • Alliance and Horde are allowed to compete!
  • Comedy, drama, mature, immature, it doesn't matter. I will try and host these off-forum so regular forum rules don't come down on a really good but extremely graphic piece, or auto-censorship ruins critical words and emotions.
  • To the above that may inspire "adult" writing, keep the top shelf grit at home since this is supposed to be a community viewed event. Steamy romance is fine, graphic sexual torture scenes and overly descriptive "cuddling" will be disqualified.
  • I am, at present, the only judge.
    You're being judged on writing integrity, style, how well the story flows and if it can thoughtfully move someone, all the better!

Prizes:
  • Two Grand Prize Winners shall receive a Blizzard Store mount! Yeah! Any of 'em!
  • 1st Place Runner Up will receive a Blizzard Store pet of their choice!
  • 2nd Place Runner Up will receive a Hearthstone Welcome Bundle!
  • 3rd Place Runner Up will receive an in game item. I haven't decided what yet. Rare-ish or expensive-ish (gold wise.)

What is bassball?

A fast-paced 3v3 form of PvP where your objective is to outmaneuver and control your opponents, not slay them. It’s a chaotic team-based battle to field a goal into your opponent’s net – using a fish.

It debuted at the Bonfire Bash, but was patented by an opportunistic goblin to be 170% more fun and make 300% more profit!

Requirements

A character of level 110, and good sportsmanship. That’s all!

For pre-made teams, the majority of your party must be from Wyrmrest Accord for realm hopping. Feel free to make uniforms, come up with a team name, and bring your A-game!

Can’t compete? Put on your cheer gear and root for your favorite team! (Or the one you bet on.)
