TAVERN EVENT - RACE FOR THE RUM !

Hello everyone.
Please find here the details of our next event Tavern.
I have not date yet but we should have it soon.
Normaly we will do this event in collaboation with Monsieur le Baron in Port Salute, we are working on details and differents point.
Concerning the final destination I still have to contact the owner of one sim (i will try tonight) to make sure we do have agreement !

I am interested by all tour suggestions. This is the 3 event we organize but probably this one is a challenge in term of organization since we may have many prims engaged.....

Anyway please find here the idea and you are welcome to give your comments, positive or negative. I will as well try to contact Antiquity authority to make sure everything is fine for all rules perspective (I still may miss some :_))

RACE FOR THE RUM

Ahoy mates !

This is our new event, an event for traders, navy and pirates in the tradition of the marine.

You all hear about these mythical races sails boats were doing between China and England, racing to be the first on the dock to get extra money on every ton of freight delivered.

These boats were called clipper, designed to be fast and transport freight between London and China.

Since we do not have China and London in our map I am proposing you another race, the race for the Rum !

Race Summary

1. All competitors will meet in Dominica s dock for the start. Race‘s official will remembers the rules of the race and give the start. (see details of the start in rules)
2. From Dominica all boats will head to Port Salute to load their freight (2 crates by boat) (see load rules in rules)
3. From Port Salute all boat will head to the “xxxxx” (we need to check with Sim owner) and will unload their freight and load a new one (see unload and load rules)
4. From the xxxxx all boats will come back to Dominica tavern’s dock to the deliver the freight. The first to unload in Dominica tavern ‘s dock will be declare the winner of the race.

Rules and details

1. All boats must have a crew of at least 2 people. After the start till the end of the race, the captain must always be on the boat. Crew member will be responsible of the load and unload. (avoid overload of prims)
2. During the race combats between traders are authorized. Each boat can choice is own way to destination.
3. Pirates are authorizes during the race and may intercept traders. Pirate will not attacked and not stand on the starter sim or load or reload sim. After the first shoot or wearing pirate flag, pirates may be attacked by trader protection or any others players participating.
4. All traders can contract boats protection. Boat protection in that case will not load and unload. Boats protection is not mandatory. They can stand anywhere but can t attack boat on load and reload places. Boat protection attacking traders or navy will be considered as Pirates.
5. Navy can protect the traders acting as authority. Any people opening fire on traders or navy ship will be considered as pirates. A trader opening fire on a others trader will as well be considered as pirate.
6. It is a role play event, stay in character during all the phases. Dominica is a role play island and this is role play event.
7. External people from the sim may participate if they respect all rules of antiquity, the islands involved and the event itself.
8. Boat traders cannot be small boat with no load capacity. Please be coherent. A gun boat can t load fret. All boats will have to be approved by race officer.
9. Avoid OOC.
10. If a boat is sunk it will be eliminated of the race. This rule is for ALL SHIPS.
11. Orders and penalty will be given on the tavern chat. Keep it free.

Load and Unload Process

During the load process the Capitan of the ship must remains on his ship (too avoid too much prims). The crew member will go to the dock with a small boat and takes the freight (load) from a race official and gives the freight he had to the same official (unload). All will be done via inventory transfer. Each crew must rename the crate with the name of the ship to facilitate the tracking. Remember that the harbour may be crowed and you may have some difficulties to get in our out. You don’t have to dock your main ship, only the small boat must access the dock. The unload and reload will be a strategic step. Think about it.

Start rules

All boat will be on sea standing out of an imaginary line that will be given to all participants. At the official start all boats can cross the line. Please don t let any boats rez with no captain on board ! Boats crossing the line before start will have a 3 min penalty. Boat not responding to the penalty will be eliminated.

Comment by Caspian Zeplin on October 23, 2009 at 10:54am: Ladies and gentlemen, it saddens me to read all this. I won't offer any advice on how to patch things up as I don't know the reason behind your fall out.

However, I will say that the NING is definately not the place for it. As most of us are all friends in Antiquity, it does affect a lot of people when dirty linen is aired in public. I urge the involved parties to keep your dialogue within SL, so as not to embarrass anyone further.

Comment by Slado Bellic on October 23, 2009 at 9:54am: I hope you are happy with the result of the trouble you and obnoxious friends have caused Alanxo and this result, kurb your foul little tongue and keep it in your mouth now for gods sake you have caused enough trouble!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment by Alanxo Etchegaray on October 23, 2009 at 9:44am: Thanks for you Kaytilita ! you ll be allways wellcome in Dominica ! You know i built it, as you dream it, to apply the rules you writted with Etal !

It's evident than this one prefer drama where he excels than indifference so i ask, again, Dominica residents to stop this dispute without interest !

Comment by kayteemay shelman on October 23, 2009 at 6:46am: Due to the recent conflicts and separation of sides, sims, and more (see above) of my friends in Antiquity, I have decided to leave Antiquity. Second life is a place to play, to be free from upset and to live out our fantasies. This is more like a nightmare, then a fantasy. I hope to return to Antiquity in months to come, when things are back to normal. I hope some of you will welcome me back at that time. I have remained as uninvolved as possible in the above discussion, and fight. However since a post with my name was written above (the local chat log) and discussion that followed... I will only state that it is true that Dolores was not wearing her meter, and I did expect a battle to ensue (thus the step back), and then noticed her meter was not on. Considering however, all that has transpired, I do not think this is a matter of concern. I just wanted to mention it since there appeared to be a he said she said situation there.

I hope my departure leaves at least one thing with you all. That when you fight in SL, and argue, and get angry, and post, and gossip, and spy, etc. That people do get hurt. Friendships are destroyed, and people like me who have tried to build a fantasy life (spending much time, money and effort) can have their dreams ruined. Play with care. I will miss you all.

Comment by Slado Bellic on October 23, 2009 at 4:18am: Read back Dolores, it was your friends and yourself who started the personal attack on me here, I was simply airing my views about your attitude to RP here and forcing it on others, you all decided to turn it into an attack on my RP abilities.

Granted this is not the right thread for this, it has escallated into something else because of how it became twisted. Report it to who you like but be aware that I already lodged my complaint about your behaviour right after the initial incident and I am aware that you have been circulating my IMs with you on the matter to others.

Practice what you preach!

Comment by Dolores Metaluna on October 23, 2009 at 3:31am: Comment by Bridget Jennings 5 hours ago Delete Comment I wonder if this is the best place for this type of discussion to take place?

It is not.
And I have report his attitude in this forum and in game to to Antiquity autority.
This topic was about an event and not a window to Slado frustration. I suppose there are better forum and site to deal that....

Comment by Slado Bellic on October 23, 2009 at 1:22am: The bad words and pathetic attacks have come from you and your friends here and in IM to me Alanxo. I am doing nothing more than clearing my name of the false accusations made here by you, Dolores and Poisonous. You know fine well you had no meter on Dolores as does Kaytee who was there at the time and will confirm that. It was my understanding that IM was regarded as private and should not be repeated, not local public chat which this was.

I think it is over now as far as I am concerned, I have nothing more to say on the matter.

Comment by Alanxo Etchegaray on October 22, 2009 at 10:26pm: I agree Bridget, and ask to all Dominica residents to ignore, from now, the bad words and pathetic attacks from this one, here as in game.
I suppose the ning is moderated and hope we ll can, soon, continue to speak about the original subject !

Thanks mate !

Comment by Fubuki Finchy on October 22, 2009 at 10:05pm: Well, Dolores was in RP, and you Slado, you took it OOC. You were bitched in RP, not in OOC. You ejected her cause her RP. She RPed a rude pirate girl... Simply.
You confirm that you are not a role player.
