SPORTS FESTIVAL

[afterlifer]

WHO: Everyone!
WHAT: Just what it says on the tin -- sports festival!
WHEN: April 8th - 10th
WHERE: All around campus! Particularly in the gym, sports/soccer/archery fields, tennis courts, and pool. The school's map is over here for reference.
WARNINGS: Unless the games are getting competitive, there probably won't be much violence...! I mean, it's not like we're playing rugby...
SUMMARY: Sports festival! Details here!

Remember those sports festival sign ups last month? Well, the days for said festival have finally arrived! All around campus (obviously in the sports-related areas), various competitions for various sports are going to be held. Track dashes, marathons, baseball, soccer, basketball, tennis, archery, swimming, kendo... you name it! Each event will be held at different times, with breaks in between to allow for any spectators -- whether they're game characters or NPCs -- to go watch 'em all. It also allows for characters wanting to participate in more than one event to do so.

There are also numerous decorated food stands around the event areas with light snacks and beverages for players and watchers. If people want to make signs to support their favorite teams, they can even do that at certain tables with sturdy sheets of paper, paints, and markers!

Finally, at the end of each day, there will be a fireworks display, with the largest one being on the final day (the 10th). On that last day, winners and MVPs for the competitions will also be announced! And each of those winners will be receiving a prize! Players on each winning team will all receive extra meal tickets. As for the MVPs, they will get a gaming system! A Gameboy in particular. Pretty neat, huh?

On the note of winners, we will be having polls for MVPs (most valuable players)! That will come toward the end of the festival, though. For now, anyone having their characters participate in sports events as players should drop a comment/fill out the form over here! That's also where any questions regarding this event can go.

Also, as a side note, the events under each day are listed in chronological order (morning, afternoon, late afternoon).

I suppose I'll defer to your expertise in dealing with perverts this time, Haruhi.

[ HAHA SHE GOT YOU IN TROUBLE KYON!! also chance to see what sort of thing haruhi does: GO! ]

[slave_of_suzumiya]

H-hold it! I haven't done anything wrong here!

(Damn you, Yuri Nakamura!)

[extraordinarily]

How about this: if Kyon doesn't get first place in all the swimming competitions, he'll have to wear something embarrassing for the rest of the week.

[tenminutes]

I can agree to that. A different embarrassing outfit for each day, too. Just to keep things fresh or he'll get used to the embarrassment.

[slave_of_suzumiya]

H-hold it! Exactly what the hell are you two planning!?

[extraordinarily]

[ Sorry, Kyon, but you're totally getting ignored. ]

Oh, and he can wear the girl's SSS outfit for the first day if he don't get first place in any of those competitions. You don't happen to have one that's big enough for him, do you?

[tenminutes]

They're easy enough to make, I can just make one in his size. Wearing girls' clothing isn't all that embarrassing though is it? I don't want to accidentally see his junk hanging out either.

[ Poor Kyon. ]

[slave_of_suzumiya]

Can you just drop it already?

(... And this is just the kind of moment where you feel like you want to crawl into a hole and die. Even if I'm already dead.)

[extraordinarily]

No way. Doing something like this will give you more motivation to win, after all! [ And to Yuri: ] Maybe we can have him play a sport while wearing some sort of mascot costume, too. I bet the NPCs would go “wow” when they see someone wearing an outfit like that actually playing a sport!

[tenminutes]

You started it, don't tell us to drop it. [ He so didn't, Yuri.. ] Sounds like a plan. What do you think? Dolphin? Panda?

[extraordinarily]

I was thinking more on the lines of a bird. Like a phoenix!

[slave_of_suzumiya]

How the hell did I start this!?

[tenminutes]

Ooh, feathers might be nice. After he swims though, they'll all come off in the water.

[ She looks directly at Kyon for this response. ] The sexual harassment person might just end up looking like a red chicken though.

[extraordinarily]

That's alright. He fits the description of a red chicken, anyway.

[slave_of_suzumiya]

What the hell are you even on about?

[tenminutes]

A big red chicken!

[ Is she agreeing with Haruhi or answering Kyon insultingly?

It serves both, doesn't it? ]

[extraordinarily]

Kyon will make the best big red chicken there ever was.

[ Because honestly, Kyon needs to wear that chicken outfit. ]

[slave_of_suzumiya]

I refuse!
