Title: Beware The Bling! Phoenix Risen First Annual All Hallows Bash Contests & Sign Up
Post by: Lishy on October 21, 2009, 11:42:13 AM
Phoenix Risen All Hallows
"Beware the Bling Halloween Bash"
Contests
Held October 31st, 2009
(Official Rules pondered as little as possible by Geppetto Director of Fun & Games!)


Wenchiest Cleavage Contest     

Anyone May Enter, Be They Male or Female (We know, this is dangerous!)
(Special note- "Male Cleavage Contestants" *Geppetto may be permanently scarred with PTSD for even having to think about this one, kind of like seeing fairies with Adam's apples!)

All contestants must be at the Phoenix Risen campgrounds NO LATER THAN 8:15 pm to enter the contest. No excuses, no exceptions. While your entry may be admired and appreciated, latecomers will not be judged as a contestant.

You do not HAVE to sign up here to enter, HOWEVER, it would be most helpful and appreciated if you would!

Cleavages will be judged on the following criteria: Presentation, Packaging, Decoration, and Sauciness.  Therefore it is not necessarily the size of the boobs or depth of the cleavage involved!  There are no set rules as to what makes cleavage wenchy, but please, feel free to use your imagination and decorate as you will!

Please Note! This is a CLEAVAGE contest and not a naked boob contest, prettiest nipple contest, nor a shake your naked body the best contest.  Anyone showing more than cleavage for judging purposes shall be immediately disqualified and held as barter during Barbarian Invasion.  This is much about imagination as it is about pretty bewbs- we see those all day at faire, trust us! (*Alas and some not so much!)

The winner will be awarded a $20 gift certificate to Cindies and a keepsake trophy.

There will be 3 judges, giving us an odd number in the case of a split decision.

Naughty Pimping Pumpkin Carving Contest
Contestants Must Provide a pumpkin or pumpkins and any tools or supplies you may need to prepare your entry. (*Phoenix Risen will provide a table and newspaper covering for carving upon and that is all.  You may also provide your own table and carving area within the camp.)

All Carving and Preparation must be done in full view of the judges and may be inspected at anytime during preparation to assure fairness.

No Preparation Allowed Prior to Arrival at the official Phoenix Risen camp!  Prior to arrival contestants may plug, gut, and clean your pumpkin, and apply a pattern or design to the outside using a pen, pencil, or marker.   All pumpkins are due before 9:15 pm, Saturday Oct 31.  No Exceptions!   If you plan to enter the contest, signing up here beforehand would be most helpful to our judges, this way we know how many to prepare them for.

Pumpkins will be judged on the following criteria: Craftsmanship, Originality, Creativity, and Demonstration of the theme "Beware the Bling".  Remember, ladies and gents, this is a "Naughty" (defined in Webster's' as- "vicious in moral character: wicked: guilty of disobedience or misbehavior: lacking in taste or propriety") pumpkin carving contest.  This is not a "disgusting, immoral, perverted beyond belief" contest!  Themes and/or characters may be suggestive NOT PORNOGRAPHIC!  While nudity is acceptable, NO portrayal of actual sexual acts, images or scenes which involve the use of toys or other sexual aids or barnyard animals, or any other activity that violates the laws of State of Texas will be allowed!  For that matter, nothing that is going to make people cry out for Brain Bleach or Vomit Bags!

Pumpkins maybe carved and/or painted.  Craft pumpkins will not be accepted this year however, you may add any other material to your ORGANIC pumpkin as you wish.
The winner will be awarded a $20 gift certificate to Specs, and a keepsake craft pumpkin of their very own to take home and love (a Phoenix Risen trophy).

Also, due to fire hazards, if your pumpkin is to be lit please use a battery operated votive.  They are cheap, and you can find them everywhere from Wal Mart to Halloween specialty stores.

Contestants should be prepared to face the judges and explain themes, preparation techniques and to receive a thorough flogging for any violation of the rules in addition to any other punishment, purification or atonement thought up by Geppetto!

Please have a card or tag attached to your pumpkin identifying it as your punkin baby.

Thanks and happy carving!

Childrens Costume Contest

There will be 3 age categories: 5 and under, 5-9, 10-12, according to their age on the day of the contest.

Contestants and their costumes will be judged by the following criteria: Originality, Homemade or Created*, Overall Character, Demonstration of Theme.

*Costumes should be original.  Purchased or rented costumes, masks, etc may enter however they will not receive the same consideration as original homemade costumes and makeup.

Costumes that demonstrate the Phoenix Risen First All Hallows Eve Bash theme will receive higher points.  The theme is "Beware the Bling Halloween" so all things bright and shiny are what judges are looking for.

All entrants must be present at the PR campground no later than 7:45 pm to receive a tag with their entry number.  No Exceptions!

Winners in each category will receive a goody bag filled with various treats.  All entrants will receive a participation gift.

Scavenger Hunt

The hunt will officially begin at 10 pm.  Latecomers will not be allowed to participate! No Exceptions!

Teams are limited to 5 (five) members.

Contest will run for exactly 90 minutes at which time all teams must have their booty and booties at the official judge's place of designation. Any booty arriving after 90 minutes will not be allowed, No Exceptions!  Each item on the list must have the signature of the person and clan affiliation the item was received from next to it.  No exceptions.

Teams nor members of any team may not use vehicles to drive through the campgrounds and may not leave the campgrounds to procure items.

No items from the Phoenix Risen or McLotofus campsites will be allowed or considered.

Items will be awarded points based on a predetermined system.  The team with the most points wins.  Prizes are to be determined, but will most likely be a bottle of loki or other alcoholic beverage or other prize as offered by Geppetto.

I can't wait to see all this!!!  I plan on being a bit inebriated during all of it, but I can still take pictures while drunk, so beware!!!  ROFL 

(ok, so they might all be pictures of the ground, or someone's feet, but hey, they'll be pictures...)

Thanks Teach!  And by the way, when I saw you and lovely Trinn at the Sea Devil on opening weekend, I said I was going to come by the PR camp and say hi, but as is no big surprise, I got a wee bit too tipsy (and it wasn't the beer) and hit the wall very early Saturday evening!  I'm usually up until 1 or 2, so that really sucked!  But, I'll have two teens with me Halloween so I'll be sober, well ok somewhat sober, and we'll come down and say hi and see the games!  Cannot wait!

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who came out and participated.  The Wenchiest Cleavage Contest will surely be an annual event. . . the rest, eh- too cold, too much trouble. 

To those who didnt come out, you missed some awesome tacos, and beverages, and reallllly pretty women bouncing up and down.  Your loss, lol.

When is what you all mentioned never amazing? I happen to believe it was why gravity was invented.

Without gravity, I know some women in particular who would still need a containment system just to be able to see where they were going (o:

The tacos were truly exceptional, but alas, I missed the cleavage...  I was putting my renlet to bed at the time, and although I could hear the merriment outside, well... somethings just will not be rushed (like the singing of "A Pirate Looks At Forty", my daughter's favorite bedtime song)! 

It was all amazing, and the booze table was just... phenomenal... there is no other way to describe it.  Really.  Soooo glad I could contribute to the Rum gifts with something new!  LOL  Of course, I think I drank most of it, but there was still a good amount left the last time I saw it.  At least that's the story I'm stickin' with...  :P  :D

Trust me Rani, you weren't the only one hitting that particular bottle.

*Pineapple rum and 7-up are a great combo I have discovered*

Ooooh... that sounds really good!!!  I kinda liked it straight, myself...  :D  LOL  It's tasty enough to just sip without even being mixed.  I know I (mostly) filled my goblet with it 3 times Sat. night, but even after that and all the Loki I drank I still went to bed sober...  ::)  I tried my best to get rather smashed, but I guess the tipsy from Friday night acted as a counterweight... (hey, it sounds logical to me... :P )  LOL

For the benefit of those of us whose legs (wheels) didn't last till the contests, would someone list who won each event?   

Next year I may have to find people to volunteer to push me around when StudMuffin poos out.  I told him not to race the carriage horse, but does he listen to me?... Nooooo!

Honey, if you can make it to Row 8, we've got an absolutely ELECTRIFYING snack for your dear StudMuffin, guaranteed to give him the pick me up needed to get him all over the campgrounds!

Due to some apparent confusions and such not every contest actually happened.
Elaine (I think) won the 2009 cleavage contest.
The punkin contest was cancelled because there were to many damaged on the way to TRF.
The children's costume contest was cancelled because many who we thought would be coming were either misinformed about when/where or just plain decided not to walk down to visit.
The cleavage contest has definitely been declared to be an annual tradition and was a great hit with everyone.
Next year's party shall be even grander for certain and our plan is to continue that growth as the years continue.

And Studmuffin can always plan on getting a CHARGE out of the feed lines of Phoenix Risen!

*And since Keeper brings me little rum gifts on occasion he is welcome to come along with Studmuffin*

Sounds like there are plenty of livery stables where SM will be able to get a little something to tide him over while his rider does the same, so no more excuses for not showing up in camp, Keeper!  It was wonderful to finally meet you at the POW, btw!  My renlet was most impressed with SM, also...  Looking forward to the next time!  :)

StudMuffin and I thiank you for all of the support.  It is a little late this season but with a bit of luck we shall camp with the clan next year and I may take you all up on your kind offers.  (Okay Zaubon, I know, I have been saying that for a couple of years but now after meeting so many of the clan, the urge to camp is getting overwhelming).

Good Sir, this time next year I hope to make you eat those words while I eat your breakfast.  (And maybe dinner).
