[OPEN] Asgard Olympics Day 112

Who: anyone!
What: Asgard Olympics Event Part 2
When: Day 112 (July 13-14)
Where: Gefion Park
Rating: G to R (take anything higher to a locked log please!)

The second day of the festival, characters will wake up to the same carnival music as before. If they go to the park, they'll find the stage replaced by a huge fenced-in ring (the size of a rodeo corral or similar thing). Throughout the day, equipment for events will be brought into an moved out of that ring.

When you make a thread, be sure to fill out your subject line! Make sure people know where you are and what you're doing. For the sake of making the log easier on browsers, we won't be posting category threads for each event, so try putting "eating contest / battle royale / obstacle course / games / food stands" or whatever is relevant in your subject line.

The contests for the day are as follows:

First, the Hot-Dog Eating Contest. For this event, there will be long tables with chairs set in the ring. Characters will be given a constant supply of pleasantly warm hot-dogs on buns with no condiments and plain water to help wash it down. They will be timed for ten minutes, and whoever's eaten the most at the end of that time will be declared the winner.

The winners of the eating contest will be:
First Place: Pippin Took (Loki)
Second Place: Aladdin (Freyr)


Second, the Battle Royale. Characters who sign up for the battle royale will all enter the ring at the same time to fight. Using magic from the gods, the moment someone has blood drawn from them or a bone broken they'll be teleported out of the ring and will be unable to reenter. The last person in the ring will be the winner. All injuries will be healed automatically when the character leaves the ring, but deaths will be handled the same as normal, penalties and all.

The winners of the battle royale will be:
First Place: Kiyomasa Senji (Thor)
Second Place: Cheriour (Heimdall)


Third, the Obstacle Course. For this contest, a field full of typical obstacles will be set up. Characters will begin with a tire run, then go up and down a sharp incline. From there, they'll run and leap over some hurdles, take monkey bars over an inground pool of water (deep enough not to hurt when you fall and to require swimming), walk a balance beam, climb a rock wall and take a zip line (there are three of them set up) over a mud pit. At the bottom they have a 100-meter sprint to the finish line! Whoever reaches that line without skipping an obstacle wins. Choosing to swim the pool or wade the mud pit is a legit choice and won't get a penalty. In fact, anything the characters do to get through the obstacles is allowed so long as they don't just run around them

The winners of the obstacle course will be:
First Place: Sokka (Freyr)
Second Place: Laura Kinney (Hel)


All prizes will be given out at the end of day 113, so look at that log for more info.

In the evening once it gets dark, the carnival games and food stands will be lit up, and the food will change from carnival junk food to really good food from all worlds (even yours!) The music will change from sourceless carnival music to... not live music! Instead, the large ring will suddenly be covered by a huge tent. Inside, there's dance/club music, blacklights and bright coloured moving lights -- everything you need for a modern dance party.

Have fun, play hard, and good try to everyone who competes! Remember, your characters had to sign in for events ICly, but they're welcome to be thrown in even if you didn't sign them up already OOCly. Just jump into whatever you'd like!

Hot dog eating contest!

[personal profile] foolofatook 2012-07-12 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
[Pippin had needed it explained to him what a hot dog was, and finding that it was akin to a sausage, he eagerly signed up for the event.

He was sitting at the table, ready to start. His large feet hung down, not touching the ground, and he merrily swung his feet as he waited to start.]
saving_sound: (This was a bad idea...)

Obstacle Course!

[personal profile] saving_sound 2012-07-12 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
[She's not sure how she ended up in this event, but here she is, ready to give it her all anyway!

...Unfortunately, while she's not a total klutz, she's still not the most stable person on her feet. Especially when the course is specifically designed to trip you up.

So yeah. It's going to be slow going no matter what part of the course it is, especially after getting a dunk in the water. But at least she can cling tightly enough to the zip line to avoid the mud?

[Frodo on the other hand had nimbly made it through the obstacle course, right up until he saw a lass clinging to the line above the mud. He slows and calls encouragingly up to her as he starts to make his way upward]

Careful now, mind your step and mind your grip even more!

[he hasn't made it in time to the contest, but Frodo will support Pippin through it from the sidelines. Not that he needs much cheering, Pippin looks primed and ready to go]

Remember! Chew! Don't just swallow it whole, you'll make yourself sick!
foolofatook: (happy ※ don't be hasty)

[personal profile] foolofatook 2012-07-12 06:11 am (UTC)(link)
[What are you, his mother?]

Yes, Frodo, I will be sure to do just that! I cannot very well win this contest if I'm choking or being sick.

[ merry will just be standing behind pippin for this event, eagerly massaging pippin's shoulders as though the act can lend him his strength (or at least, his hunger. also, somewhere the 'eye of the tiger' song might be playing.)

You can beat them, Pip! I know you can.
saving_sound: (Why did it have to be curses...)

Obstacle Course!

[personal profile] saving_sound 2012-07-12 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
Ah... R-right!

[She's still damp all over from the combination of going through the obstacle course and, well. Falling from the monkey bars. But this time she's intent on keeping a tight grip, dampness be darned.

It takes a bit for her to gather her courage, but as she's already clinging as hard as she possibly can, all she can do is see if it will work. She goes ahead and kicks off, shutting her eyes and wrapping her legs around the rope as she zooms down the line and towards the ground again.

Also she may be giving a faint screech all the while.

[Hibiki is certainly doing a lot better than Aladdin. He's still pretty plump from the hot dog contest. Sadly King Sinbad signed him up this to get rid of those pounds. So now he's slowly wadding along in the mud. When he spots Hibiki, he's tries his best to make it over.]

Hibiki! What's wrong?
iorhael: (cheers)

[personal profile] iorhael 2012-07-12 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
[Since the only other elder hobbit here is the one GOADING you, Frodo will have to act like a parent!]

Yes, yes, but remember what I said while you are in the act, rather than becoming a hobbit-sized squirrel!

iorhael: (climbing)

Re: Obstacle Course!

[personal profile] iorhael 2012-07-12 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
[he's gaining on her but has yet to reach what they called a zip line, pausing in his wary climb to watch her go screeching off. Frodo cheers for her, hoping she won't let go...then continues climbing himself]
foolofatook: (merry ※ ash in my tomatoes)

[personal profile] foolofatook 2012-07-12 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Pippin puts on his sweatband cracks his knuckles and looks around at the competition.]

They've not come across the stomach of a Hobbit before, Merry! I shall give them all a big surprise!
foolofatook: (confused ※ apples from the sky?)

[personal profile] foolofatook 2012-07-12 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
A squirrel?

[He gives his cousin a quizzical look before it dawns on him.]

Ohh, you expect my cheeks to puff out quite full, do you? Well, I shall take care to do this chewing thing about which you seem so adamant!
iorhael: (smirk)

[personal profile] iorhael 2012-07-12 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! And good, please do!

I suspect Merry and I will have to carry you out. You will be all stomach by the end of this, and very little hobbit. Do the Shire proud!

[personal profile] pipeweed 2012-07-12 06:42 am (UTC)(link)
It's to our advantage, then, that these Big Folks have yet to see just how much you can eat.

[ he looks around them. ] Tell me you at least prepared for this event.

Eating Contest

[personal profile] snugglesjugs 2012-07-12 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
[That had to be one of the best contest he's ever been in. So much food, he was actually still hungry after that. He had to applauded the other guy for eating a few more hot dogs then he did in the end. It didn't phase him at that he didn't win first. All that free food was reward enough but thanks to that Aladdin is currently a blimp. From the look Sinbad gave him earlier, he wasn't going to stay like this for long.

For now, he's just to be a happy. Looking like a fat hamster.]
foolofatook: (excited ※ the big one there)

[personal profile] foolofatook 2012-07-12 06:46 am (UTC)(link)
[Pippin beams at him. He wouldn't mind getting carted around by his cousins after a good meal.

As the trays of hot dogs are brought out, and pitchers of water brought to fill glasses, Pippin rubs together his hands eagerly.]


For the Shire, indeed!
foolofatook: (guilty ※ always been taller than you)

[personal profile] foolofatook 2012-07-12 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
Prepared how? I heard these are very like to sausages, and you know how many of those I can put away in one sitting.
saving_sound: (I don't think that is how it goes...)

Re: Obstacle Course!

[personal profile] saving_sound 2012-07-12 06:55 am (UTC)(link)
[She eventually reaches the bottom, but now she's reluctant to let go of the rope. J-just a little break couldn't hurt, right?]
saving_sound: (That does not look very good...)

[personal profile] saving_sound 2012-07-12 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh! That's...

...Is that Aladdin? He looks kind of different.

Anyway, she'll shake her head from her position on the edge of the cliff. She's got a grip on the rope already, but she's kind of nervous about jumping off and potentially falling into a mud pit.
]

I... I'm not sure if I can hang on tight enough.
pipeweed: (12)

[personal profile] pipeweed 2012-07-12 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
Well yes, but seeing that this is an eating contest, you could have prepared by not eating anything beforehand!
foolofatook: (surprised ※ mushrooms)

[personal profile] foolofatook 2012-07-12 07:07 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't have much! Honest, Merry, I'm quite famished right now. I could eat the whole of Farmer Maggot's crops!

[personal profile] holmes_fanatic 2012-07-12 07:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Conan's also on the zip line, just passing Hibiki now.]

Faito, Hibiki-neechan! It's not long now!
snugglesjugs: (Listen to my sound)

[personal profile] snugglesjugs 2012-07-12 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
[He's waddles really close to the cliff.]

Hold on, I'll try to get some help.

[He gets about four step before sadly realizing that he's not going anywhere fast. If that not going to work then he'll try using his power. His flute was thankful high enough that it didn't fall in the mud. He decides playing something empowering that gives the feeling of courage.]
saving_sound: (Why did it have to be curses...)

[personal profile] saving_sound 2012-07-12 07:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Hibiki cracks an eye open, having shut them tight at the start of the drop.]

Y-yeah! Almost--!

[She... tries really hard to sound enthusiastic, but the effect is rather ruined when the mere sight of the scenery rushing past causes her to curl up tighter on the rope with a squeak.]
pipeweed: (68)

[personal profile] pipeweed 2012-07-12 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
[ and that is saying quite a lot. merry beams at him in approval. ] Good, good! Now, take a deep breath - I think it's about to start!
