#asuevent

Hi everyone!

With Valentine’s Day coming up, we wanted to take this opportunity to host a different sort of RP event for you guys! If you’ve ever seen the Gilmore Girls episode A Tisket, A Tasket or the Hart of Dixie episode Sparks Fly, you’ll be familiar with the concept of a charity picnic auction, and this year, Auradon’s going to be hosting it’s very own.

The event (asuevent015) will officially take place in character on Saturday, February 13th, and characters will prepare anonymous picnic baskets to be sold off to the highest bidder! The prize isn’t just the contents of the basket, though -- whoever’s basket your character wins, they’ll get a chance to spend the day with that person, as well. This will be a fun chance to create new connections, or stir up drama between old ones. 

However, there’s a lot of preparation for such an event, so we’ll have a few deadlines leading up to the event for you to follow OOC.

February 5, 2020: This will be the last day to submit baskets made by your characters. Please submit them to our new events blog with either a brief summary of what your muse would have in their picnic basket, or with pictures of what’s in it if you prefer. These will be posted on February 6th for everyone to bid on at random.

Note: If you have a pre-planned plot, please make sure you submit that by February 5th, as well. For instance, if Mun A and Mun B have decided ahead of time that Clay Clayton will be buying Maddy Mim’s basket, when Mad Maddy’s basket is submitted, please make a note that this basket is already sold to Clay. We will keep who bought the basket a secret until all winners are announced at a later date.

February 10, 2020: All bids must be submitted. 

For instance, if Mun C decides that Derek Deppert likes the look of what’s in Basket 3, he’ll send a message to our new events blog that says ‘Derek bids on Basket 3.’ 

If there are no other bidders on this basket, then Derek will automatically win! However, if two or more people bid on the same basket, a randomizer will be used to determine who the winner is.

February 12, 2020: Basket winners will be posted on our new events blog ahead of the event on the 13th!

If you guys have any questions about the event, please let us know and we will be happy to clarify! Otherwise, we can’t wait to start seeing basket submissions come in to auradonstate-events very soon!

YOU’RE INVITED TO EVANGELINE’S 2 PART CELEBRATION...

And that’s a wrap on basket submissions!

It’s officially February 6th in the eastern time zone, and you know what that means - auction bidding can now begin! From today through Monday, February 8th, we are accepting bids for your first choice baskets! Please send your muse’s name and the name of the one basket they’d like to purchase most to @auradonstate-events as soon as possible.

Hey everyone! Just a quick reminder that you only have 2 more days to submit your picnic baskets for the February 13th date auction to the @auradonstate-events blog if you plan to participate in asuevent015. After February 5th, your muses will no longer be able to officially enter. 

Starting on February 6th, we will move to the bidding phase of the event! More information will be posted about the bidding process at that time.

Happy almost Halloween, everyone! It’s a rare year when the holiday falls on a weekend, which means that Auradonian citizens from all around can gather in the capital to celebrate in style at the annual masquerade ball. 

The ball will take place on Saturday, October 31, and will feature a live band, a wide variety of costumes, and endless snacks catered by none other than Tiana Dubois herself. Come out for a night of music, dancing, fun, and dressing up. We look forward to seeing the whole kingdom out and about this Saturday for some good old fashioned Auradonian drama!

We encourage you guys to begin posting event starters as early as Friday, October 30, at 12:00 pm EST (5:00 pm GMT, 9:00 am PST) using the asuevent014 tag, although remember that in-game, this is all taking place on Saturday evening. If you guys have any questions or need any additional information, please shoot us an ask and we’ll be happy to elaborate more about the event.

As you all know, this Saturday is @jungleboyblake​ and @willofnottingham​‘s wedding, or asuevent011. We know you’re just as excited for all of the drama that’ll come at the reception as we are! But before the event begins, I just wanted to fill in a few details:

The wedding is in Westerly

The ceremony is outside in Sherwood Forest

The reception is at Chateau D’Or (Nottingham Castle Castle), with room for partying both in the castle’s ballroom and with access to the castle’s gardens, etc.

We recommend you guys begin posting event starters and threads Saturday, June 22nd, at 12:00 pm EST (5 pm GMT, 9 am PST, etc.) but if you guys are a little early because you’ve already queued posts and whatnot, that’s okay!

You guys can post starters anytime between the 22nd and the 30th, and your threads can continue for as long as you need to finish them! You’re also welcome to keep old, non-event threads going, or let them die and start fresh with wedding replies, whatever feels right for you!
