Annewbie Anntics Event

Yesterday my guild had a just for fun (or "Anntics") event. Our event crew rounded up as many guildies as we could find, and went on a field trip to the horde side.

We visited each horde newbie zone, rolling a new character for each one. Various games and activities were setup ahead of time, and even if they didn't all go according to plan, they were still tons of fun.

Bloodelf:

In the bloodelf zone, we were all emo, so we went and jumped off the tower, trying to see who could get closest to the center of a round platform, far below.
Next we had a race to see which team of 5 could collect the most [Smashed Petal] in five minutes. The winning team came up with 12. Pretty impressive for level one BElfs! After that, still in teams, we kited mana fishies "back home" to the lake. Tricky! And to top it off, we had a footrace down the scar, followed by packs of skellies and ghosts.

Tauren:

In the tauren zone, we all were told to pick names with "moo" in them, and then voted on the best name. "Barackobamoo" was our winner. That was followed by a quick game of hide and seek, with our Moo winner hiding, and everyone else seeking. Next up we ran over to Bloodhoof Village to the warrior's circle for a duel tournament. The winner of that event was "Mahmooshake." To finish off the zone, we all ran over to Thunderbluff and jumped off the Elder Rise.

Undead:

In the undead zone we had some crypt dancing, a race to see who could die the fastest, a corpse eating contest (first one to cannibalize wins!) and a team contest to collect a full set of armor. We then attacked the pumpkin patch in a massive undead assault, resulting in a pile of bodies scattered around the scarecrow.

Troll/Orc:

In the troll/orc zone we played piggy ball! Orcs vs. Trolls in a fun game of football, using the pigs as the "ball." We had to move that event out of the newbie zone though, since the level one pigs don't last very long with 25 newbies fighting over them. Level 7 piggies were the key...along with the removing of all weapons and armor. The winners, after a very close 5 point game were the Orcs.

To top off the night, we ran our trolls and orcs over to the island and zerged Zalazane.

Altogether the night was a huge success and I'm looking forward to whatever our crew can cook up for us next month!
