25th Anniversary : Story telling contest
Ladies, gentlemen, orcs, goblins and gargoyles! And yes, you there at the back, whatever you are!
On the 24th of September, at 3pm EST, we will be celebrating Ultima Online's 25th Anniversary.
As part of that celebration, I will be hosting a story telling contest on Origin.
You are invited to come and share your creativity with everyone. We are looking for tales of your adventures in Britannia, of your greatest acts of bravery, your greatest losses, or perhaps just something funny that happened to you in these lands! Tales of friends and foes, of monsters slain, and treasures gained!
If your bardic skills tend more towards poetry or song writing than story telling, you can do that instead!
Entries by non-human races are welcome, but please be aware that not everyone is fluent in orcish, goblin, etc. If your audience cannot understand you, you might want to stay out of Fel after the contest!
Also, I know some of you can write amazing epics, but please try to limit your story, poem, etc, to between 5 and 10 minutes, so that everyone who wants to take part has a chance.
And yes, of course there will be rewards for the best three stories/poems/other works! *
*The EM's decision is final (unless over-ruled by Mesanna) and no bribery, intimidation, mind control or impersonation of higher powers will be entered into.

Thanks for yours and others hard work and time investment to implement this!
To All:
Larisa gave us a preview of the venues for this Faire.

Looks like it will be fun!
Giving a prize to someone on Origin would be unfair for those that do not have transfer tokens (if they aren't from the shard). It would also be more history exported from the shard.
(Please do not post your story ahead of time.)
*COOKIE HUGS*
Not everyone has a shard shield there and running around with a nubi char is kinda meh, and the timezones excludes many.
As a sidenote: Congratulations to all for 25th Anniversary of UO!, now lets all work towards another 25years, we can do it!
