The Fest has a DJ stage. Meinhardt is a sponsor, so it got named for them. Royal Imperial got naming rights on the Main Stage, and Terembev, which is a Neu Engollian beverage conglomerate that will be ICly explained later in the Fest RP, got the Pavilion. It's not really your stage to do with as you wish, but just to have bragging rights. Just as in RL different stages at music fests get named for corporate sponsors, so are the stages and pavilions for the AVBF. I got carried away in a capitalist fervor the first AVBF and actually named the security station and first aid station after sponsors, too, but that was a bit too much.

Common Territories wrote:So im mulling over making a post now, but I've never made such one before (I've never written for an event like this). So the first question I have is about the wall and times. Is that wall separating the fields and our tents blocking the view? I was thinking, if we're allowed to be open during the rugby games, to section off the portion of my tent facing the rugby fields for VIP seating when time for the games comes. Basically sell tickets to anyone wanting to reserve a table/spot facing the fields for a little extra if the seating has a good angle - maybe discounted drinks and food or something too to match. Anyways, I'll try to get a post up as soon as possible, but it'll take time since im working on another post and I have a special project im working on right now.
Also, how would I be keeping drinks and things at safe temperatures? Do we have access to facilities or should we bring something like this?: http://www.mobilecoldrooms.co.za/mobile ... b2500.html

I put planning and effort into it. And then there was a long delay. That had an effect. So I wouldn't just go off on everyone for not posting. And I still came back and tried. So...
I'd still be into a new edition. There are new RPers every year and if you promote it and start it quickly you might get better participation. Stalling signups for weeks will slow almost any RP besides NS sports.. Instead, TG some people and get them interested as soon as the signups go up, versus waiting for weeks in hopes of random signees. There is always a momentum. Wait too long and that feeling will go and people will commit elsewhere.
One more try might not be bad. I'd try to get two of my allies to come and that could springboard. But, they might lose interest if the signups stall for weeks.
And it's nothing new, I first learned this in 2001 when I started captaining Trek ships in a large fleet. As soon as there was a crew, I'd want to start. Waiting a few weeks to say, go from 5-8 people in theory might get the numbers. But then maybe 4 people would be bored. The actual number active would shrink, see...
It's best to get that crew started and find ways to get more people to see it right away. It's not personal to your RP or anybody else. It's just the RPer's nature.

Vangaziland wrote:It was a real life issue. And I think that's the issue with the long sign up. Stuff pops up. I understand that one wants to get RPers in and don't want to start too soon. I just think if you started it in say even 10 days, that would be more than enough time. I remember like a month or two and then another delay. It happens, but maybe if it was right before more recent players would see it and sign up.
Then even if there were 3 instead of 6, they'd be free to RP. Some people also sign up, forget (or just distracted by something else) and ignore/forget. But I was really looking forward to it.
I know how it can be frustrating, I had an RP all set that was going well which people walked away from. But I understand that's just NS. I also stalled at a point and that was my fault. Except there was partly because I had about 8 RPers and all any one of them wanted to do was meet my one character. It's like, there are lots of characters. That set me up to get burned out. But that's off topic, just showing I know how frustrating that can be.
I think if I would have been there, I could have helped set the scene and been more interactice. Maybe I can round up my allies. Thing is, I won't know until closer. If you're ready to move on, that's okay. But if you ever want to collaborate on anything, let me know.

Since I won't have much steady time to RP or score the beers and the rugby 7s over the next couple weeks, I'm going to postpone until after the Christmas holiday. I hope to have everything ready to roll by then as I will continue to work on the OP and xkoranate set up in the meantime. Thanks a lot for your continued patience. This will happen, I promise.
