Announcing: Silver Buckle Gong Show

THE SILVER BUCKLE ANNOUNCES: THE GONG SHOW

Mulnari, Mai Ninth, Fifteen Hundred and Two starting at eight o'clock in the evening.

Bring your best song/dance/joke/story/impression/costume/skit/trained animal act/juggling/acrobatic attempts/bow and arrow tricks/illusions/contortionist/yo-yo tricks*

A panel of judges consisting of anyone not actually performing will either ring the gong on their table (BAD) or not ring the gong on their table (GOOD).


Prizes will be awarded as follows:

BEST ACT (as measured by lack of gongage):  2000 True coin and whatever I have lying around.

WORST ACT (as measured in deafening factor of mallet on metal): 2000 True coin and some other junk.

The public is invited to compete**.  Dark elves, dark elf sympathizers, Sulterio lovers, and people wanting to blow up my inn strictly prohibited.

//*Please keep your act short-ish, no more than a few minutes if you're feeling really prolific. Feel free to borrow something already done.  Anything goes here, really.  Be aware I may ask for skill/ability checks based on your act just to spice up the results - roll with it!

//**GMs are welcome to bring NPCs; if they win, they get the coin.[/SIZE]

//Don't forget the Gong Show after this Sat's quest!  No need to write something new or unique unless you want to, just mod something you've always found funny or emotional or impressive to fit the flavor of Layo.  All welcome to participate or hit the (virtual) gong!

//Silver Buckle Gong Show is delayed due to Storold's group quest

Gongs are set out on tables* and food and beverages stocked up; the Buckle is ready to host the Gong Show!


//*theoretical gongs.  You have to make the noise with your fingers using the keyboard, like so: "gong".  Or "bong", or "clang" or possible "crash" if you're feeling feisty.

The Silver Buckle's security chief takes a night off, leaving the Buckle in Edward and Winston's hands, and transforms into....a comedienne?

A fine specimen of the kin, Captain Trueaxe, doing IMPRESSIONS.  Seriously, you need to be here.

And the winner is ELYEES SUMMERBREEZE! Wild applause!  Jetta, despite her best efforts to assure her first place by gonging everyone else, took last place - but only because the competition was so fierce!
