Capt Wolf Posted October 1, 2018 Doldrums may have becalmed the seas of late, but as the soccer tournament begins in Bastion, what better way to celebrate than to pay a visit to the Weelond Oktoberfest! Weelond’s annual Oktoberfest celebration features food and drink, contests of skill, games and amusements, traditional/historical costumes, food and drink (did we mention food and drink?), and more. So regardless of where you’re from, come to Weelond and have some fun! Rules: Your entry should be at least 16x16 and showcase an activity at the Weelond Oktoberfest. This can be a pub scene, a brewer or vendor at work or hosting visitors, stage performances, contests of skill, festivities on the market green, or whatever you can imagine, as long as the build illustrates festival activity at the Weelond Oktoberfest. In addition to posting your entry in the forum (ideally with a [W-OKT] tag in the title), please post a link to your build in this thread and in the Weelond settlement thread. Entries must be posted by October 31. Prizes: Each entry will receive 10DBs, and you can enter as many times as you want. Entries will be judged on presentation, quality of build, story, fit with Weelond's architectural style, and fit with the Oktoberfest/festival theme. The overall top three entries will earn 150DBs for 1st place, 100DBs for 2nd, and 50DBs for 3rd. An additional 50DBs will be awarded to the best licensable build in each of the following property categories: artrisan, commerce, factory, and residence. Also, 50DBs will be awarded to the best shipboard entry -- because fishermen and sailors party on the water as well as the land! Weelond will reimburse the builder for licensing costs for any property entry licensed through the EGS. Weelond also offers to purchase (at 3x the license cost) any property a builder does not wish to license. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darnok Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) Yay, Oktoberfest! I will enter with a few builds, probably not as many as last year though. There will also be an Oktoberfest in Mesabi Landing (no mini challenge! ), so I will spread my ideas between both settements.

Capt Wolf Posted October 17, 2018 @Ross Fisher, 10 DBs for entry and 25 DBs for license reimbursement have been transferred to your account. @Professor Thaum, 10 DBs for entry and 120 DBs for purchase of property have been transferred to your account. (I know you said it was free, but Weelond stands behind its offer; feel free to spend it in one place! ) @Roadmonkeytj, let me know if you're going to license the BruHaha property.

Roadmonkeytj Posted October 17, 2018 @Capt Wolf What does the settlement need more of small commerce, artisan, or culture lol? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Wolf Posted October 17, 2018 Just now, Roadmonkeytj said: What does the settlement need more of small commerce, artisan, or culture lol? It doesn't matter what the settlement needs. I'd say artisan is appropriate for a bar or similar establishment. So go ahead and license as a small artisan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
