Anyone ever wanted to be an olympian?
Anybody ever wanted to get out of thier comfy computer chair and go for a jog?

I have....
And now it is a reality!
I am a very good runner!
But for all whom arent as blessed as me i have thought of the graallympics!

Get this:
A bomy carries a torch from human town to snow town.
He/she lights up NPC torch.
Then it begins:
There are scheduled events throughout a a graalian day
or so, These may include:
Hockey
Skiing
Races: Foot, Horse, Bomy etc.
CT,1,2,3.
CTF.
Survivor
Elephant races
And finally trivia.

You dont win gralat but points!
The most points acumulated by one person is the winner!
The winner might get a section on the graal main site where they can leave a description of themselves pic etc. and lots $$$$$!
And these should be held every graal year at the same time!

Whadaya think graal ppl?
Get off your academic hats and put on your sweatsocks!!!
=D

Vote GRAALYMPICS!!!

FatherDante 03-22-2001 04:11 PM

I'm all for it! I could be a graalympiad!

Shayde 03-22-2001 05:11 PM

Think about the poor people that have to organize it..

Yamizitzu 03-22-2001 06:21 PM

hmmm
i am a champion panda

Tolerian28 03-22-2001 06:44 PM

YES GO GRAALYMPICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lycia 03-22-2001 08:40 PM

Hehe, that would be fun!

We could even come up with like, triangles for the olympic symbols instead of circles.

Cloud_X 03-22-2001 08:44 PM

I actually would enjoy organizing something like that shayde =\

Lycia 03-22-2001 08:47 PM

Hehe, yeah. It would be hell though trying to get it organized.


Like, maybe have a Graalympics Committee.

FatherDante 03-22-2001 10:03 PM

It would be no harder than any other event, just take it one at a time.

Lycia 03-23-2001 02:34 AM

Hehe, athletes would actually have to train and get good at their chosen sport before competing.

Cloud_X 03-23-2001 03:43 AM

A few events team members could do it. I mean as long as you dont atempt it last minute it sounds neat

Aidoggy 03-23-2001 03:47 AM

sounds ok

Lycia 03-23-2001 04:33 AM

I elect MadBrad president of the Olympic Committee.

Psyker 03-23-2001 04:58 AM

Graalympics would be awesome. Hehe, Stefan could run around the world carrying the torch :D

ReBBisH 03-23-2001 05:01 AM

That would own...

Psyker 03-23-2001 05:12 AM

oh yes, it would.

Lycia 03-23-2001 05:22 AM

Opening ceremonies would be fun.

Cloud_X 03-23-2001 05:30 AM

If we could find someone to do graphics it would look awsome! Im going to talk to madbrad and see if he will consider having an event like this cause he is Events Admin and for the most part it's up to him i believe.

MdadBrad 03-23-2001 05:41 AM

This actually does sound like a good idea and I don't think it would be too hard to do.

Asuka 03-23-2001 05:43 AM

I came up with this idea a long time ago and i told hippie but he didn't like it =( oh well but with renewed interest i hope it happens. Also 1 problem though how are you gonna get all the olympians on at 1 time..

MdadBrad 03-23-2001 05:50 AM

There can be schelduled times and if they aren't on at the time of their event they are disqualified.

Asuka 03-23-2001 05:56 AM

As long as it isn't held on friday 4-11pm
saturday 4-11pm
sunday 12-7
monday 4-7
i can be there ;) but if you can't im sure you won't care.

Lycia 03-23-2001 06:15 AM

Why should we adjust it so it conveniences you?

Asuka 03-23-2001 07:06 AM

I never said you had to i just noted the times i couldn't be on mostly the weekend because i have work ( A REAL JOB LYCIA may be in your interest to get one too) also im going ice skating and bowling. At least he doesn't have to adjust it to fit your schedule because yours is graal 24/7.

FatherDante 03-23-2001 07:12 AM

Asuka never suggested that we should plan around his schedule. That was awful mean, Lycia. He only informed us of the times when he could compete.

Asuka 03-23-2001 07:13 AM

Yeah i work weekends since im only 15 and on a workers permit. Basically i have no life on weekends since i only work but its needed so i can have a life in the summer. Going to france, england, and italy for 2 weeks and going to boston for 2 and half weeks for my sisters graduation ( THE PERSON WHO DID THE PANDA HEAD)

vergil 03-23-2001 07:14 AM

uhmmmmmmm one problem
the Olympics are a nonwinning sport. there is no one winner. i agree there should be prizes but no winners as that defeats the whole purpose of the olympics...

FatherDante 03-23-2001 07:16 AM

I think there should be a winner for each event like the real olympics, not an overall.

Except for the decathlon, of course. :D

Agreed
Wait here's an idea there can be nations or something and we each have like one olympian from each nation in an event like 1 person from the nation can be in the spar tourny and another one could be in the survivor and the entire team in in CTF etc. Since the olympics support bringing the nations together.

Asuka 03-23-2001 07:17 AM

but how many people in each nation.....

FatherDante 03-23-2001 07:18 AM

Nations would be pretty nice but make the whole thing more difficult to organize. Especially arranging for olympiads from each nation to be on the events.

Lycia 03-23-2001 07:20 AM

Thats why I say we have continents of the world compete.

Asuka 03-23-2001 07:23 AM

No continents stay as far away from the real world as possible for the olympics. This is graalian olympics i think there should be leaders and they name the nation and then they compete.

Cloud_X 03-23-2001 07:35 AM

Yes I think there should be fake little graal nations that compete considering it would be "the graalolympics"

Lycia 03-23-2001 07:42 AM

Errrr, and what would be wrong with continents of the world?

Asuka 03-23-2001 07:44 AM

Stay as far away from actual olympics as possible. Can you imagine the graalians. I WANNA BE USA NO I WANNA BE USA CAN WE CHANGE CONTINENTS BECAUSE THE SWISS ARE BETTER AT SKIING BUT WE WANNA BE THE USA FOR THE SPAR TOURNY.

isnt that the events team's or whatever job?

Psyker 03-23-2001 09:04 AM

how would we go about getting the graalympians?

Cloud_X 03-23-2001 09:53 AM

Well If madbrad lets some of the et work on it (or all) Ill work on it. I personally LOVE the idea and hope it works out.

FatherDante 03-23-2001 10:27 AM

We should use the continents on the Graal game.

hm... maybe Mt. Antora, Antora apendage, Bombor, Santerrain, Bogenera, and the... far east?
