Greetings to the List!<br>
<br>
You may have heard that the College of St. David is celebrating its
30th anniversary this Saturday. There'll be the usual fighting for a
prize and all that, of course, but the autocrat has acquired a whole
pile of nifty prizes to give away at this event. Why should they all
go to the fighters?<br>
<br>
There'll be two Bardic *Prize* Competitions at this event. <br>
<br>
The first one is pretty standard. It's called 3-Words-From-A-Hat.
Contestants pull three pieces of paper from a hat, each with a
different word written on it. The contestants then compose a poem,
story, or song in which all three words are used and perform it for the
judges and populace before the end of the event.<br>
<br>
The second is a punning contest. That's right, a PUNNING CONTEST.
Punning for a *prize*. ...So if you have punny stories you aren't
allowed to tell at home anymore, or have ever been exhorted to "Get
thee to a punnery!" don't miss your chance to simultaneously entertain
and torment a captive audience!<br>
<br>
...And our third and final official bardic activity of the day will be
the Storytelling. This being St. David's 30th anniversary and all,
we're hoping all you St. David's Alumni will come regale us new kids
with your favorite stories and memories of your time at the college.
Display space is available if you have photo albums to exhibit or any
made-on-a-starving-student's-budget garb or armor to show off. <br>
<br>
As usual, members of the populace wishing to help entertain attendees
with either casual or formal performances are most welcome. Come see
me at the event and I'll get you set up. :)<br>
<br>
