Who Fest '08: the origins

Hello Time Vortex! I'm Dawntreader, and I'm coming to you via The Doctor Who guild. Over there we have this little, but rapidly growing, scheme cooking. Not too long ago Ceribri, a moderator of the DWG, posted a topic about a Doctor Who sighting in towns, that post was concluded with the following throw away sentence:
Ceribri
Additionally, who would like to arrange some sort of get-together in Towns and do something Who based? I have found a way to record it, actually. razz

and out of that little idea we get. . . .
Who Fest '08

A day filled with contests, discussions, scavenger hunts and other general Doctor Who related tomfoolery.


By semi random selection over at the DWG, I, Dawntreader, was chosen to organize Who Fest, which currently has the date of August 9, 2008. The following posts will be ideas we have had, but I'll leave a few extra posts left for anything else we come up with. Though this idea started in the Doctor Who Guild I would love to involve all of the Gaia based Doctor Who fandom. I'm currently trying to shift the planning over to a proboards that I've made, so that we don't have to go guild hopping, but I'm still going to post the basics here.

3: Contests: Please note, none of these contests have begun yet, and none of them are cemented, this is all just planning and brainstorming.

Costume/Avatar: The best cosplay Doctor Who outfit (this can be anything from the Doctor, to a monster, a companion, or a significant object.) Prizes will be given for First, Second, Third and runner up. You don't actually have to build the avatar you create, but as the festival will be all day in Towns, you may want to.

Fan-fiction: Write your own Doctor Who story, keep it PG folks, and use your common sense when it comes to length and depth, if you thin kit's too long, it probably is. Also, proof read, please eliminate as many typos and spelling mistakes as possible, this is a contest of creativity, but if it's illegible, I don't care if you're Shakespeare.

Submission:


Original Art:Doctor Who Fan-art Very similar to the Fan-fiction contests, but for those of us who prefer to draw than to write. Any media is excepted, so long as it's in good taste (no mashed potato Daleks) Photos of real life work will be accepted. Keep it PG, please.

6: Scavenger Hunts

I've always wanted to organize a Trans-Gaia Scavenger hunt. I was thinking that some people could make threads, some people could put things in their profile.

The hunt would begin at the event headquarters in the Towns and end who knows were, each participant will follow a series of clues and riddles from one step to another, each step will have a small Doctor Who relate prize, maybe an icon, a banner, and profile code, something. There may or may not be a big prize at the end.

If you want to be one of the stops, please PM me.

WE REALLY, REALLY, NEED SOME ONE TO ORGANIZE THIS, or at least some one to take half of the work load.

7: Fundraising

If we want to give prizes for contests we are going to need gold. Any one who wants to donate, or quest for the cause, or has any ideas for fundraising, let me know.

8: Promotional Stuff

Banners: If we have any banner makers in the guild who want to make signs or banners for signatures, go at it, just PM me the code so that I can post it here. This is another thing that we really need.

9: Tomfoolery

This is general random stuff we've come up with to do.

Empty Child March: A march, through towns, dressed up like the empty child (the Hi-tek gas mask, Zorro mask, and Syaoran's Goggles all together, or even just separate make a pretty go recreation of the look) in which we would all ask every person we saw, "Are you my mummy?" It would probably start from one of the hangouts in town and wend it's way through different neighbor hoods of Barton until we reached 8 Barton 060974, The Abilon Hospital, kindly created by UniversalDestiny. We may even meet some one we know along the way.
Doctor Who Skit: Doctor John Smith has suggested that we put on some Doctor who themed skits, whether they be new, fan written adventures with new characters or villains, or old episodes the way we wish it had happened.
