Posted: Thu Dec 29, 2011 9:22 pm
First off, thanks to everyone who helped put this together, all the members of UBB put in a lot of time, effort and resources into this. Also, special thanks to Chainsoar and Cattie for building and staffing an awesome bar that really added to the event. And of course, thanks to the community for showing up, having a good time, and acting like decent folk for the most part.

8pm: UBB put the final touches on preparations, fresh pigs were brought in....
9pm: Gates finally open at WBB, and people start straggling in...
: Place starts filling up, a jolly good time is had by all waiting in the pub, complete with an open bar and fresh food cooked by Ogden, some complaints were made about having an english hobo serve food, but by all accounts those concerns were baseless.
: The smith off was next, seven smiths raced to be the first to craft a full set of exceptional plate. Britannian Arms took first place by a wide margin, and Molson Canadian claimed second.
Next came the ore race, which was really more of a maze time trial, the players had to drag a pile of ore from the third floor to the first, with many obstacles in the way. Molson Canadian set the par for the course early on as the first contestant, with an unbeaten time of 2m41s. Six others participated, with Walmart coming in second place with a time of 3m15s, and Kevin claiming third with a time of 3m35s.
Don't have any screenshots of this part right now.
Third and finally came the Pig Vs Pig tournament. Entrants competed in a bracket tournament, pitting 2 pigs each against eachother. Competition was tight but certain pigs proved to be head and hoof better than the others, "Abbot's Mom", on team "St. Louis' Mom Blows Goats" at first appeared to be unbeatable, but in the end team Corporate Britannian, led by Walmart, pulled out an upset victory.
Event winded down to a close after that, celebratory drinks were had, and the place was left trashed. But in accordance with Britannian Health codes, the guild had one last task to complete before the night was over...
