I remember when you brought this idea up to me. I love it! I would like to offer my free running tower (Trinity Tower) for the climbing event. I will gladly run either a direct line from trinity subway to the realm its in, OR a well lit, fenced road. Let me know what you think.

For those who haven't seen the tower, it's a tower that goes from 64 to new world height with a series of floors that require different levels of skill to ascent. It culminates with a single exit to the roof which has access to a free fall porch which drops straight to bedrock where the runners will be able to land in a nice deep pool.

Both are fun, but I like the free fall the best

Okay so We have our first event site organized for the Olympic Games, time and date to be organized.

Shotput: (Survival) This event will require the use of Q and drops, therefore survival will have to be used.
Since we're all equal interms of strength.
I'm thinking of making this a skills based game, that involves throwing an item as close as
possible to a ringed target. Scoring points on the different rings. It is a bit of a cross between
bowls and darts.

Boxing/Wrestling: (Survival) This event will require PVP. A straight forward fist fight, no potions, weapons
or armour. PVP at its most basic, with fists. 1 opponent faces off against another in a
knockout tournament. Jumping allowed?
Time: TBA
Date: TBA
Game Server: TBA
Location: TBA

Fencing: (Survival) Similar rules to Boxing, no potions, extra weapons or armour. PVP using Wooden or
stone swords.
Time: TBA
Date: TBA
Game Server: TBA
Location: TBA

Archery: (May have to be Survival) I currently have MrKeveCool building an archery course on Creative,
but with drops being removed on contact. We may have to move this to Survival, as it would
require as marshall to record the arrows as soon as they land.
Basic archery course, with targets located a fixed distance away and competitors try to aim
3-5 arrows as close to the bulls eye as possible.
Time: TBA
Date: TBA
Game Server: TBA
Location: TBA

Spleef: (Either) Works well on either Creative or Survival. Probably will use Creative, as it gives more
reason to visit and use the Olympia world. Matches will be best of 3? Or we could use a tennis
scoring system?
Time: TBA
Date: TBA
Game Server: TBA
Location: TBA

Swimming: (Either) Speed course? Players race against each other to swim to the other side of a 50m
swimming pool, touch the side and swim back.
Time: TBA
Date: TBA
Game Server: TBA
Location: TBA

Downhill Canoe Slalom: (Survival?) The Question is whether or not boats work on Creative? If they do,
then this can be done on creative. It will be a down hill obstacle course based on
skill to boat through gates whilst avoiding damage to the boat.
Time: TBA
Date: TBA
Game Server: TBA
Location: TBA

Wall Climb: (Survival) A race off between competitors, the first to reach the top, wins.
Time: TBA
Date: TBA
Game Server: Survival
Location: nkirby3385's Trinity Tower

100m Hurdle: (Creative?) Could be done on either. Race involving jumping over block obstacles to get
to the finish.
Time: TBA
Date: TBA
Game Server: TBA
Location: TBA

Long Distance: (Either) I would like to make use of several different running events, but where the
distances are different, some shorter distances involving sprinting, but also a longer
endurance based event. Probably survival, to make use of the hunger system.
Running a number of kilometres with a set number of bread or melons, competitors must
run and manage their sprints, vs. hunger to finish as quickly as possible.
Time: TBA
Date: TBA
Game Server: TBA
Location: TBA


So thats 10 main events in total.

This sounds awesome!

If you go onto SethBling's YouTube channel he did a video showcasing a football style minigame, where water currents control the movement of a drop, with the target being to score x amount of goals.

Sorry I can't post a link, but I'm on my iPhone atm - But I think this may suit our needs quite well, as this can be a team game and football is an olympic sport.

As for the long distance, there should be a small amount of food so players will have to walk some of the ways.

[Magerman]

This was an idea that people came up with in minerealm 2.0 with the first 'realm' system never got around to doing it

Some ideas were:
building: Everyone gets the same amount of materials and whoever makes the best house or.. something wins

Redstone devices???

A mining competition kind of?

idk

Sounds like a good possibility, Minecraft definately could do with some ball physics, but this could be a good replacement.
I think there is a football pitch somewhere on survival. Again if it uses drops, it'll have to be survival.

I believe we could offer Roanoke for some of these events. We have a large field open and flat atm and a never used spleef and pvp arena that just now seen some renovations. The arena is modeled after the Amsterdam Arena http://www.amsterdamarena.nl/photos/sta ... oen_04.jpg.

Let me know. You know where to find us if you want to see the area firsthand.

[Surgeonbsg]

Just thought I'd point something else out as well. Since you can still /spawn join at Roanoke participants would have easy access to get right back after they died. The sites I have in mind that are available are also really close to the spawn point.

[kingofturves]

Awesome I think it would be great to get Roanoke involved.

Here it is, I'm sure it would be relatively easy to get rid of the arcade style to make it fit our needs, if needed.
