Thanks again for all who attended.

Please remember that 90% of Greengrass is the guild and although we have had great dm and edm support over the years,  we plan as if none is available.

As tradition we ask for feedback from those who attended. This feedback is used to gauge how players feel. We have used some of the feedback in the past.

Please only people who were actually there respond and thank-you.

Dan Cross attended until pulled away after the tug of war and before the dunk tank. I never seen alot of these activities in game before, at least not to this level with actual mechanics. I loved the tug of war, loved the pace at which things moved along, loved the slide, loved everything. I wish I could have been there the whole time. Super fun and you guys know how to run an event

Big Kudos go out to DM Jorteck !  Super scripter for the tug of war and the streamlining of the dunk tank.  Thanks you for your compliments.

I have heard back on two issues.

"Where's Greengrass?"

Yea apologies for dropping the ball on that one.  Not all read discord or forums.  Next year we will be more attentive to having signs.

Bard Competition

One of the reasons we decided on the three performance rolls was in case someone was not a professional they could still have a chance.

The rolls also take into account presentation, style etc. 

We decided to give advance notice on the topic and set a time limit.  There was some debate as putting people on the spot but it would not be fair if people just wanted to compete for fun.

There are plenty of formal bard competitions. Our goal is to try and make things "flow" and seem more natural and carefree.
