      • Town with the most drinks at the end of the time wins

I like the ideas, the drunk race and fights, and the drink creation are fine. But about the others two, i think there wont be much competition since we dont have much drinks and the only thing u need in order to make a "perfect" drink is the recipe. I would think in something like, a massive drink production, in which every team tries to make as more drinks as they can in a certain amount of time. This will make people to think in different brewing strats and in which drink is better to do, considering the times and all that.

Also about the teams i was thinking in making a town list, in which every town earns points at every game and at the end the town with more points win. And let players play alone at certain games like the races and the fight representing their town. ofc we will need to place a max of players per town and a minimun of players for team based games like the brewing creation.

This way we let people to take part of any game they want instead of making a team play all of them

I like the idea of the mass brewing that would definitely be easier to judge than my other idea.
As for the Town list, I also agree that's a good idea it allows for more members to participate in more activities.

So if I'm understanding you correctly people playing in the lone games like the races and the fight will get points towards their town's total if they win which is what I had originally intended

Maybe set the cap at 8? seems pretty fair

Love the idea of a Brew fest. However, I'd like to suggest possibly it being more akin to the famous holiday of Oktoberfest! I believe that the festivities of this holiday could help you come up with suggestions for the, "lokafest2k17" in respects to events, times and competitions.

I'm eager to hear your response as the suggestion so far sounds like the building grounds of a great events that has the ability to be moulded into something that would definitely add the the server experience and atmosphere.

Hey Koi! I totally agree with you on that point! I wanted LokaFest to be more of a celebration of culture and lore that a day packed with competitions and judging. I'll be taking a look at the events typically hosted in Munich during that time to better create an events schedule that mimics it. I saw your builder application on the forums and I wonder if you might want to help with construction of the grounds? By the time this post goes up I'll have scouted out a spot and started planning. Thanks for your input!

Unfortunately I'm unable to play much at all at this moment. However, I was going to recommend just setting it up within your town if you needed to! I was going to suggest that you perhaps talk to Cryptite about this becoming a 4 day even at spawn with multiple hosted activities.

Spawn would be an extremely useful place to host because of how it would be easier for all players to participate, play knowing it'll be pvp free and nobody would find it particularly hard to come to the event!

I never thought about hosting at spawn, however, I don't want to have someone else feel responsible for building the festival grounds unless they want to. I agree that the no pvp would be a good feature. I'll talk to Crypt about it and see what we can work out

May I suggest drunken archery courses,drunk parkour, drunk foot race, drunk falling tourney and drunk bomber man

Sorry I was in a rush whenever I made those suggestions I'll expand on them now!

What I meant by drunk falling tourney was the mini game of dropper maps. These maps were made with the idea of the player having to drop safely all the way to the water covered bottom without hitting the terrain on the way down.

Bomber man was a game created in July 1983. The game revolves around the goal of trying to remove the enemy from the game with bombs. The arena had parts that were breakable. However, most was indestructible. The reason I'd suggest this as the random movement associated with drunkness/blindness would add to the difficulty of the mini game. The only down major down side to this that I can see is how it would eat up TNT and would require a lot of obsidian to create and arena.

Ah ok thanks for the elaboration unfortunately I think both those things are a little outside my skill level but I appreciate the suggestion anyway!

I mean this was for the 1st LokaFest which has come and gone but if you want to participate in the 2nd one I'm sure any town would let you on their team.
