Drunken Norrath Biathlon -- Kelethin to Rivervale

[hammerton]

Yea something just for fun. no need to over complicate it with rules. a bunch of drunk lvl 1 elfs running accross the world!

I say start with gnomes in Ak'anon.

I mean they're tiny, have a pathetic corpse look, and run a lot less gracefully than elves. Ak'anon is also farther away from anything than Kelethin is if I recall correctly. I think that's why gnomes are always chosen for these nekkid events.

You could have the gnomes start at the bottom of Ak'anon and swim their way to the front. There's plenty of places for swimming like the shore in Nro, Oasis, Innothule swamp, Lake Rathetear, etc, that are on the way to Qeynos.

The problem will be having refs in all of those zones making sure that the scheming little bastards don't cheat!

I like this, keep it simple. Just level 1 gnomes/dwarves/elfs. My vision is to have a good number of people, like at least 50+. It will be hilarious to watch people pouring over the edges of the Kelethin bridges as they all try to get through at the same time, drunk of course.

The boat wouldn't necessarily be a deal breaker, it's just sort of a pain since sometimes it takes a long time. We could always time it out so that the boat arrives right as people start getting there, but if you're slow you miss it. We could always make it a rule that you have to jump off of the boat once you zone in to

If it were just to Rivervale, then we wouldn't have to worry about Highpass or anything. We could just have a few people clearing the orcs and gnolls that guard the entrances.

I like the idea of having a few "checkpoints", where people have to drink more booze to go on.

Prizes would have to be high enough so that lots of people participate. Something like 1st: 400pp, 2nd: 200pp, 3rd: 100pp, and 25pp each for 4th-10th to ensure that enough people actually try. I don't have enough to finance it myself, but maybe some rich person / guild could.

Let me know about your thoughts, people.

if you change the liquor drinking from ingame to IRL I will definitely participate.

Anything that involves a boat would be a bad idea, barring deaths the first group to hit the boat would have a massive advantage over the rest.

Also, Provide a bind spot at certain locations like HHK if they want to take the time to get the bind they can.

Just make it a Naked Gnome run. always a blast.

Luclin Server used to have one a month around Lake Rathe. Short distance that can be done in about half an hour. I like the idea of Feeport to Queynos, but it could take 2 hours to complete. Not including deaths.

The race would be dock to dock and all participants must be unbuffed, naked level one warriors bound at the Freeport gate.

[LizardNecro]

Haha we did a race like this at a lan party back in 99. Naked run from freeport to queynos. Was fun!

[Thrynn]

How about you have a drunk race from the south end of kelethin to the Orc lift?

[DekThai]

Just reading the idea made me laugh and it sounds like a good time!

Just come up with the event time/date/rules and I will be there.

Do a naked drunken level 1 halfling race from Misty Thicket to the EC tunnel, at night through Kith, no wall hugging! Whoever is alive at the other side wins. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
