Eventsquare Booth Signups!

[sunflower_mynah]

Hello, guys! Mysti here. I am not your shiny events mod, as you very well know; that would be the lovely etsplanations, who is currently overseas. I'm posting this on her behalf since she's asked me to hold the fort for her while she's away.

For those of you who aren't aware, ff_eventsquare hosts a - well, the name says everything, doesn't it? - event once every game.

Booth application
Name: chacusha
Class: Black Mage
Booth Name: Postcard Mini Contest
Booth Info: It's basically a UA contest but in FFES instead. The challenge is to make a postcard (both sides: one is the image side of a locale and the other is a handwritten note on the back from an FF character to another FF character). There will be voting at the end.
Proposed Layout/Setup: Screened submission. Separate voting post (this will push other entries down, but I think it won't be much of an issue now that LJ has sticky posts). I don't know what people would like for timing, but I'm okay with closing this activity 3 days early and using the last days of the festival for voting.
Prizes/Participation:
Entry: 15-20 points?
1st: 125 points?
2nd: 100 points?
3rd: 75 points?
Voting: 5 points
(Not sure how to balance this with the other activities. Help!)

On a scale of 1 to 5 (1 being easy and 5 being difficult), how much work do you think will go into maintaining this booth?: 2

Okay, got it! Thanks. :) I'll forward it to Ets. Out of curiosity: since FFES is open to non-ff_landers, how's this going to run for them? Voting but no participation unless they're queued to join?

[chacusha]

Hm... I was thinking anyone could participate and win too. The points would just go into a black hole if they weren't planning on joining.

[sunflower_mynah]

Okay! I'll pass that on as well. :)

All right. I'll forward this to Ets? :) Thank you!

[sunflower_mynah]

Um, Nal? I'm really sorry, but Ets says that this is a little too soon since it was held last game. She asks if you'd like to help out with manning any of the accepted booths instead? Please drop the person in question a comment with the Helper Form if you do.

Booth application
Name: arivess
Class: Queen Stabbity
Booth Name: Bingo Hall
Booth Info: Bingo! A traditional activity! WE WILL HAVE IT.
Proposed Layout/Setup: Will do it similarly to Tako's previous Bingo minigames, although in the interest of not being timezone-limited, plus the fact that I'm not home during daytime ever nowadays, I want to make the actual picking-out-names bit at the end last longer. So basically, I will have a huuuuuuuuge list of names of... stuff (skills this time, maybe) at the start. I'll try to do it around the same number of options Tako had for previous bingo games, because I don't really want to balance it myself. :D Anyway, people will have one week to pick out a bingo card of 15 names from the list. During the second week, I will call out... say, 20 names per day. People then have the whole day to go ahead and call bingo. If multiple people call it on the same day, then they all get that rank's prize. If not all the placings are filled by the end of the festival, I'll use the overflow time and call out

Whoops, I know I told you but didn't write it here. Both booths accepted!

Booth application
Name: arivess
Class: Kittyberry
Booth Name: Gloom (...unless I can come up with a catchier name like Torture Corner :D)
Booth Info: It's based largely off of the card game Gloom, where you torture your people and then kill them off! :DDD Except FF-based! With all your favourite characters getting eaten by dragons, stomped by chocobos, stabbitied by tonberries, etc. :D
Proposed Layout/Setup: You pick two characters each, and then do horrible things to them! :D There are three varieties of cards: good things, bad things, and DEATH. Good things will lose you points, bad things will win you points, and once a character's dead, nothing else can be played on them. You are given a limited amount of each (I think about 10-12 cards total, probably something like 5 "bad" cards, 3 "good" cards, and 2 death cards) when you sign up to play, and you can play any card on any character (even someone else's), though there will be limitations on how many cards of what type can be played on each character (ie, a maximum of two good

Booth application
Name: Amber
Class: Thief
Booth Name: Summon Stamping
Booth Info: Come find out which Summon you'd... Summon!
Proposed Layout/Setup: Well it's just like a rating community where people fill out an application and others vote to see which summon fits them best... It'd be kind of like the Classchange community: we have a queue of applications and I release maybe a few per day depending on the amount of applicants we get.
Prizes/Participation: I'm thinking that maybe I'd award points based on how many votes you write... Like one vote nets you five points and then it just goes up by five XD
On a scale of 1 to 5 (1 being easy and 5 being difficult), how much work do you think will go into maintaining this booth?: That honestly depends on how many voters and applicants we get! As a whole I don't think it'd be too tough, maybe around a 2 or 3?
If you answered 4 or 5 to the above question, would you want a helper to help you out?: N/A

[sunflower_mynah]

I got it. Thank you loads! Re points: Last ES we used 5 points per vote, and 50 gil per entry/vote (so you get 50 gil for applying, even if you don't vote, but no points.) Are you comfortable with this? :)

[cassandrablue]

That seems fair, I think I can handle that! Thanks for letting me apply still, I only now realize that this is late D;

[sunflower_mynah]

Lol. Yours was already confirmed unofficially after all. Thanks for agreeing to do the booth! By the way: since the eventsquare is open to non fflanders the vgamesstamps people who aren't in ffland can app too. :)
