Regular gatherings at the Shady Oasis

Started by Caitrin, July 22, 2024, 04:30:06 PM

This thread will be for announcing regular gatherings at the Oasis each RL week. These are not RPTs, they are intended to just be times when you as a player know that something you might enjoy will be happening and you can show up if you want. If your PC is familiar with the Oasis then they probably already know who to talk to in order to get more information in game about any of these gatherings!

Week of July 22 through 28:
  • Tues 7/23 7 pm Eastern / 4 pm Pacific - a group lesson in languages and/or drawing. See rumor board in game for conctact info.
  • Weds 7/24 9 pm Eastern / 6 pm Pacific - songs and other bard shit.
  • Fri 7/25 7 pm Eastern / 4 pm Pacific - drunken darts!
All Zalanthas is a stage,
And all the characters but maskéd players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And this player in her time plays many parts...

An addition to this week's schedule:
  • Today, Thurs 7/25 9 pm Eastern / 6 pm Pacific - Group lesson in drawing! You know who to contact about this.
Tomorrow Fri 7/26 is still DRUNKEN DARTS! BYOB or purchase at the tavern.

Week of July 29 through August 4:
  • Mon 7/29 - 7 pm Eastern / 4 pm Pacific -  Bard shit. Your favorite bard (because it's the only one you know) does songs and stories on request. OR maybe we'll do a rhyme-off?? Beat the bard at the word game and you get a drink? FOIC!
  • Tues 7/30 - 9 pm Eastern / 6 pm Pacific - Wildcard night! Something will happen. Will it be something fun? Again, FOIC!
  • Weds 7/31 - 9 pm Eastern / 6 pm Pacific - DRUNKEN DARTS. Come put an eye out. Gen Xers this is for you, remember lawn darts? BUT BETTER.
  • Fri 8/2 - 8 pm Eastern / 5 pm Pacific - Card games! Gamble your measly pay away. Then drink away what you didn't gamble. You'll be drunk, broke, but happy by the end of the night.

Week of August 5 through August 11:
  • Tues 8/6 - 9 pm Eastern / 6 pm Pacific -  Bard shit. I promise it will be less-execrable shit than last week. Oof.

  • Thurs 8/8 - 9 pm Eastern / 6 pm Pacific - DRUNKEN DARTS. Yes, you buy your own drinks, you peasant. Will it be cancelled this time due to IC events?? FOIC!

Week of August 12 through August 18:
  • Tues 8/13 - 9 pm Eastern / 6 pm Pacific - DRUNKEN DARTS. Is this an obvious ploy to get you to spend your PC's hard-earned/ill-gotten coins on booze? Obvious ploy is obvious! Come anyway because it's fun!
  • Weds 8/14 - 8 pm Eastern / 5 pm Pacific - Drawing lessons, and then bard shit! If you show up late for the lesson you'll be forced to sing a song.
  • Fri 7/16 - 8 pm Eastern / 5 pm Pacific - DRUNKEN BRAWLING IN THE PIT. It's part drinking game, part taking out your PC's raw frustration and/or idiocy on other PCs! Yes this is again an obvious ploy to get you to purchase alcohol, it's a tavern, folks!
  • Sat 8/17 - 6 pm Eastern / 3 pm Pacific - Card games! Or dice! Or jozhal-tossing! (BYO jozhal)

Changes to Week of August 12 through August 18:
  • Sun 8/18 - 4 pm Eastern / 1 pm Pacific - THIS HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED FROM SATURDAY because it turns out I have a little bit of a life. When I get back to no-lifing it with all of you, we'll do card games! Or dice! Or just sit at the bar and stare at each other in silence!

Masks are the Armageddon equivalent of Ed Hardy shirts.

There's now a rumor board post in game that explains a little about the darts tournament. Read it and then talk to the correct person in game. Yes, you know who I mean, ***stop pretending***.
