Title: EVENT: WINE OFF

Would love to start planning a fun IC wine-off!  We can all bring our best, have a blind taste test, and have a good time.  This would be a 'light hearted' IC event, hopefully the only drama is over the winners and losers.

We could dice-off for winners, I'm happy with the IC winner being a random thing.

Joint planning would be great, anyone else interested ?

Came expecting competition about who can bitch the loudest.

Left pleasantly surprised.

Will not be attending for obvious reasons.

Maybe we can figure out a way for everyone to show up?  I could roll a neutral alt to host the event or something, what's a good IC way of getting a good turnout?

Also duh, Amarr needs to represent. 

Alcohol is proof God exists and wants us to be happy.

Ask Muck Raker to host it. Maybe Crow? He's Amarr but rather liberal and open to cultures? Co-host of four high-profile capsuleers from the Empires?

Will attend if hosted by a neutral or friendly party. Will even assist with planning, if desired.

What Kat said. Luna would bring some of her favorite Amarr varieties.  She does enjoy her wine...

On the topic, did anyone notice there's such a thing called champagne (https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Culture_of_the_ethnic_Gallente#Drink) in the EVE universe? I think someone forgot it's named after a region in France.

lolwut, Feille d'marnne. Actually I think the one that wrote that perfectly knew what he wrote. Or maybe i'm seeing hidden messages everywhere.

Crow is a hardliner...

The Amarr with the black hair and grey background that got a snazzy suit from a Gallentean fop???...maybe I got the name wrong.

I'm sure if something happened we'd be able to donate a few bottles of Sila--er, our stuff for the competition.

Not too sure about us putting anything on, but who knows. Reppy might be game for it.

Either way, as always, TGM is available for events if people don't want to fuss over making temporary venues.

Chanounian wine exists ingame, it is a form of spiced wine.

I've been trying to get some for a long long time.

:(

S. would pay very well for some.

Prop Mistress (http://backstage.eve-inspiracy.com/index.php?topic=321.0) has some available, in Jita.

Could sell you a few units.

I'd be willing to go. Pretty sure that'd only help to drive off Amarr faces though.

I suppose Karmilla you might be right.  As for Luna, she'll just try to reconvert you and bring you back.  It's supposed to be neutral ground right?  Besides... sometimes one can't let "artistic purity" or the no-fun brigade derail fun but that's a whole other thread so I will shush.  Shame Eve has no way for player created RP items to exist like in WOW....

I agree. That would be fun, especially if I follow the Graelyn rule of IC drinking.

The Golden Masque would be more than happy to host such an event.

Cmon, to be true to EVE online it should be a WHINE OFF.

I don't always drink Whine, but when I do I enjoy nothing more than a fine glass of 2013 vintage Caldari Online. With a gentle yet bitter touch to the palette, like almonds, or cyanide it leaves one chuckling slowly at the Minmatar nerf whose fermented butthurt tears its pilots wept over the Hurricane rebalance make it the very best of Whines.

I drink Ammatar Whines of all years. They are all deliciously useless every year.

Looks like there is interest Silas.  Maybe use the Golden Masque?  Pick a date pretty please (but not Oct. 14th).  As for joint planning, if people want to mail me their "wines" and descriptions I'd be happy to prepare a wine tasting list.....

Supporting the Golden Masque as neutral ground.

Sorry busy weekend... I'll say we aim for the end of the month or early Nov, always good to have enough weeks to properly plan, lots going on...

Title: Re: EVENT: WINE OFF
Post by: Silas Vitalia on 30 Sep 2013, 21:37
Oh yea, confirming Masque as super great idea. 

If it pleases the court and if we won't get any Amarr participation if Silas is there, I'll have her send in her bid and roll a delivery alt or something *shrug*.  Would rather more Amarr people there than me be there and none of them show up.   We can discuss.

*BUMP* So are we going to do this?  :)

I think I have booked weekends pretty much up through the weekend that SCL5 and In Exile's event are happening (Nov 9th/10th).

If we shoot for something after that (16th/17th at the earliest) I'm good.

Sounds like fun.  Not enough high society events for the ultra rich immortals
