[NEED FEEDBACK] UPCOMING AEON ANNIVERSARY
Aight so Aeon's sixth anniversary is coming up (Nov 18th, 2009)
I was thinking we put the 128k in our clan bank to good use and make a few ingame events
my first idea was hosting 6 tourneys over the course of either one or two days, with increasing prizes
Banners are a good option but... ridiculously expensive. 100k for one one week. with out 100k limit on the clan bank that is nto feasible (unless someone is feeling generous) so I was thinking about setting aside 5-10k for each tourney to be used on globals. so if we need to only global once for each tourney, then that would be 30k, or if we wanna make sure we can global twice for each, that would be 60k.
Next up is the prizes, if we do six tourneys with increasing prizes, i think we should include item prizes for the earlier tourneys. maybe even only have a first place. so here is what I came up with:
let's assume we set aside 5k for each tourney in globals
Clan Bank total:
128k
-30k (globals) thx abyss
-18k (first event)
=================
110k
That would leave us with ~110k for pure TC prizes. we can also throw in some items from our deactivated inventories to spice it up.
TheAnimal offered to give away his hair and glasses items, and we could probably use some low-qi items as well.
Dark Duke and Deal With It are both around 11k market value, both are available twice so that gives us 44k in tem price value
additionally Chirs would be willing to offer a Minihawk which has market value of 6k, a Skull Necklace for 75k market value, a Santa Beard for 5k and a Barbed Wire for ~13k
for a total of:
YOU ARE ALL ENCOURAGED TO ADD TC AND/OR NO QI ITEMS SUCH AS HAIR, 3D ITEMS AND TEXTURES!
Now on to what kind of events we plan on hosting:
I was planning on hosting SIX events of varying typed, one for each year that Aeon is alive
my idea was to do more than just plain GMtourneys
we could for example do a Hotseat event in konybeta.tbm (the one where the kid runs off and tori chases) and give out for example 5k for each winner until the runtime runs out or we reach our maximun of allocated prizes for that event. additionally we could seperate a small fund of extra TC to give away as wildcard prizes for whoever makes us laugh the most.
With these amoutns of prizes we could also host one or two forum events, such as "AEON is what YOU want it to be!" where we could reward whoever creates the best Clan Picture/video of Aeon.
There is so many ideas that I will just start listing them now, we can think about allocating the prizes later
This is what I came up with so far:
Ingame Events:
A konybeta.tbm Hotseat
participants run away from Aeon members (hotseated) and whoever reaches the tent or manages to overpower his follower gets a small TC prize like 5k. We would allocate a pool of let's say 30k to this event and host either for 2-3 hours or until the 30k run out. We could also switch whoever is hotseated to allow for even longer host time.
A "CAN YOU BEAT THEM ALL?" Event
inspired by how abyss joined Aeon. we set up a server with a few of our most prominent members (such as TheAnimal, NotShadow, Skylar, Abyss, threedog2, Chirs, etc) and challenge people to try and beat them all in a row. The challenger will be hotseated and the rest of the server spectates as he will face the Aeon Members. If he loses once, he's out, and the next one may try.
A joustguillotine.tbm Tourney
An homage to one of our most loved mods back in the day. A standard tourney with prizes for first and maybe second. we could also do trivia about Aeon and generally have tons of fun.
Race TheAnimal!
A ONE CHANCE-esuqe event where people have to beat TheAnimal in that funky racecar mod to earn prizes and worldwide fame.
Forum Events:
Some kind of creative event
for example "AEON is what YOU want it to be!" where we challenge peopel to create the best song/picture/video that describes Aeon using anything they want. It could be a collage of screenshots, a nightmare inducing collage of our real face (god no) or a clan video/clan image.
We could have our artsy members be the judges.

Don't worry about globals if I'm available, I can deal with those.
As for the events, nice ideas. I'd say rename the race one against Animal to something like 'Fastest In TheAnimal Kingdom!' or something as such. Prizes will be another thing I'll have a dig around for, since I can add straight tc or items if I have any spare.

I'm a game developer for other games.
Ping me if you have a query or general question unrelated to this game.

The names are placeholders right now anyway
