The Week of Randomness 2008
The Week of Randomness 2008
The 2008 Week of Randomness will run from Sunday December 14 - Saturday December 20 (US Mountain Standard Time).
Rules
1. The event will run from Dec 14th - Dec 20th.
2. Every single day of the week will be different. Details for each day will be posted in the schedule at least a couple days ahead of time so keep checking this post.
3. There is no need to "enter", if you post during the duration of the event you're automatically entered.
4. You will be judged each day based on how well your posts comply to that day's rules.
5. Quality of posts and number of posts will also be taken into account (the higher the quality of your posts and the more posts you make the better, assuming they follow that day's rules).
6. Each day people will be awarded first, second, and third place for that day and each of those three people will be awarded points. Whoever has the most posts at the end of the week wins. However, you will not be told who won each day until after the week is over.
7. To avoid screwing things up, the daily rules do not apply to RP posts unless specifically noted. Following the daily rules in games is good, but only so long as you don't break the rules of the game itself.
Schedule
Sunday 14th: Be Extraordinarily Melodramatic Day! (Might work in RPs if done correctly.)
Monday 15th: Talk Like a Cliche Austrailian Day. Get the accent, talk about crocs, and all that.
Tuesday 16th: Become Easily Incensed Day. (Might work in RPs if done correctly.)
Wednesday 17th: No Verbs Day. (Good luck! Definately DOES NOT apply to RPs. If you have to, you can just - a setence without them. But, more points for skillfully verb free sentences.)
Thursday 18th: Be Very Very Mysterious Day. (Might work in RPs if done correctly.)
Friday 19th: Needlessly Monologue Day. Turn your posts into (possibly villianous) monologues. (Might work in RPs if done correctly.)
Saturday 20th: SUPER COMBO MIX UP DAY! Each post you can do one of the following (you can switch between posts, but not in the middle of a post). Option 1: Monologue like an extraordinarily melodramatic cliche Australian. Option 2: Become easily incensed while acting very mysterious.
Prizes
1st Prize: Award Image, Special Blooper Reel Strip
2nd Prize: Award Image, Cameo in Winner's Blooper Reel Strip
3rd Prize: Award Image

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
Oho, this should be fun.
I'll try a bit, but I'm not gonna put all that much effort into it. Then again, even though I'm saying that my competitiveness will probably make me try hard...eh, what can ya do?

Hmm, Melodramatic Day. That might just kickstart the Saber Knight Saga, don't you agree, Saber?

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
good point, but I'm an expert on accents and lingos. Example: British Lingo: "Ello ol' chap. "Ow are you? bobs your uncle and such."

Passible...Try a southern accent.

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
Wow, I'm excited, this sounds like a lot of fun. Thank god this is a forum and we only have to type like an Austrailian, because I can't imitate any accents or slangs. The melodramatic I'm pretty sure I can do.

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
If you were such an expert why would you talke about a cyote in and australian setreotypical accent? And by what you've said so far I believe you are an expert on th stereotypes. I doubt you could speak like a REAL Australian.Blue Fire Cyndaquil wrote:good point, but I'm an expert on accents and lingos. Example: British Lingo: "Ello ol' chap.

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
Ask Stevenson, I can do a couple accents, but none of them sound like real accents, and they change day to day (or on bad days, word to word). Apparently one of mine is Indian/Irish/Scotish/British/Iranian and the other is somewhere is New England mixed with Mississippi, or so I've been told. Needless to say, I'm going to fail that day.Siranae wrote:Thank god this is a forum and we only have to type like an Austrailian, because I can't imitate any accents or slangs.
And it's Sunday here, and I have to wait half an hour until the contest officially starts.
