Still waiting on that first entry. There will probably be bonus points involved, so get writing! If you PM it to me and the other system goes live I will submit them so you don't have to worry about that. The sooner you get them in the longer the judges have to enjoy them

As to the App, I believe you have to pay Apple $99 to be a publisher. Not sure about Android. We are (with some occasional contributions every so often from members and staff) completely funded by our webmaster's wallet.

I visit the site a lot on my iPhone, and have thought about it, but I just don't see the demand to make it profitable, or even break even. I might be wrong though.

And regarding Audalis: Yes, we have been considering publishing for many years now, but since so much of the world is just not fleshed out (so many places are just names on an outdated map) and doing said work is basically the collective hobby of a group of very busy nerds... it's going to be a while.

I'm not going to lie, the contests are probably some of the biggest ways we get new material. We rely heavily on equally busy members to write material. Also *wink wink hint hint* lol

Bottom line: enter the contest!

Good suggestions though! I'll look into the app thing more.

Well our youngest member is 12, as far as I know. He plays with the grown ups. I'm just not sure there is that much demand out there for a more kid-oriented area. We might be able to make a new forum.

That being said, the majority of the staff and regulars around here became staff and regulars by taking ownership of a project and doing it! *wink wink hint hint*

Why not post a few kid friendly stories and test the waters?

Sorry I've been terribly preoccupied. If anyone is waiting on me to post just assume Adrian will read it aloud and I will post probably this weekend.

The contest is live. Submit your best shot. Remember the more detail the better, including game mechanics.

Even if a legend is simple, the entry could win if the game mechanics are unique enough.

Topic: Legends of Audalis Contest
Subject: Open


Ok ladies and gents, we are a few days late but the contest is officially open. Since our webmaster has been a bit preoccupied with life, including a nice backyard tornado, I am going to improvise.

Please send all entries directly to me via Private Message. If you are a new member and unsure how to do that just click on my name and then click on "send private message" near the bottom of the profile.

As to prizes we have a few suggestions thrown out among the staff but nothing concrete. I myself can only promise bragging rights and a new custom title - but with any luck there should be something more tangible.

Grugg has openly announced himself as a judge, but I will leave the other two anonymous unless they wish to reveal themselves. Since I am administering the contest I am not judging. I will only be screening entries for obvious TOS violations and other boring stuff.

I will not be sharing the scoring criteria until after the contest ends on June 1st.

Have fun and I can't wait to get the first entry. It might even be worth bonus points

I second V's question. Is he reading aloud or who is reading? I was waiting for Flynn or Kilgim to say something. If Adrian read it I can work something out today.

" They can't score if they can't stand right?"

Danyael offers Downhouser and Virago a sly grin. In return Virago offered an awkward mouth-full grin as he munched down on a protein bar from his pocket.

"I'm sure the two of you can see to that, right?"

Virago nodded quickly. "I have a special treat in store for the last few." Maybe it was time to let them in on the secret. He quietly raised his hand in the huddle and waited to have everyones attention.

"Guys, I have a confession. I don't really know how to play Hockey. My goal was to kill people. I'm sorry for leading you guys on, but I figured I should come clean. Now, without objection I'm going to go prepare for the next round. I haven't understood any of your strategy talk anyway besides the parts about hurting them, and getting the ball."

Virago made his way back out to the goal but quickly stopped and dashed back.

"I need some of that duct tape... And that other stick."
Taking whichever goalie stick the (justifiably) skeptical Vitali gives him as well as the duct tape, Virago dashes to the back of the goal, doing his best to stay hidden from the Wildfires behind the goalie's bloated pads. Using the minimum amount of tape needed (should be three or four 18 inch / 46 cm pieces), Virago affixes the two sticks together in the form of a ʃ and making sure it's secure, using his climbing rope if needed to help.

He quickly returns the tape to Vitali and did his best to keep the new stick hidden.

When the signal started to begin play again, Virago whipped out the new toy, whirling it around his body at incredible speeds. It was a little lopsided due to the goalie stick being significantly larger, but it wasn't too bad to handle.

Much more balanced than a street lamp at least.

Virago skated right past the remaining players, spinning his new weapon wildly around with little regard for anyone's safety. "I like my version of Hockey better... You Wildfires ready to play some more of MY game?"

Thanks for your interest. Hopefully we get more strips up soon. Anyway waaaay back on Issue #1 Olan stated the module was based off of "An Icy Grave" by Mads Hvelplund.

It may not be exact, but here is the module, including a map.

Topic: Legends of Audalis Contest
Subject: Legends of Audalis


We are looking for new, fresh, material for the world of Audalis. This is your chance to contribute to the community setting and join in a little friendly competition as well.

Introducing:

Legends of Audalis

Have you ever overheard a story that has been passed down from bard to bard for generations? Maybe it's about the creepy noise down by the dock. Perhaps a rumor about some legendary item with world-saving powers? The ancient ruins of a civilization lost centuries ago? Or what about the ramblings of that insane monk that lives on the hill? Could any of that be true?

Do you know of any bedtime stories parents might tell children to keep them in line, or explain the magical things going on around them? Do nightmares really come true if say, a certain event were to happen at a certain time?

These are the makings of a good legend, and a good legend is what we need. And we need your help to write it. I am therefore introducing the Legends of Audalis contest.

The Purpose:

To further flesh out Audalis and have some fun at the same time.

The Prize:

To Be Determined.

The Rules:

- Submissions should be sent to Admiral via Private Message. The Contest will run May 3rd, 2011 - June 1st, 2011. If you have any questions feel free to post them here or send me a PM.

- You MUST be registered at the Red Dragon Inn to enter. It's free and fast. No excuses here.

- Entries must fit into the Audalis setting. The world is huge and much of it is not yet fleshed out, so this shouldn't be too much to deal with. There is a lot of blank space on the map, so you might even create an entirely new place. Make it your own.

- You must have a source of the legend. Where would one hear it? Is it the ramblings of a hermit or a bedtime story told since before anyone can remember? Is it local to one area or widespread? Is it only known among gypsies? Traders? Mages? How dangerous is this knowledge? Is it even true or just a fabrication? Is it an urban legend? You don't have to be painstakingly specific, but remember these legends will ultimately be used by a DM in his or her game, so the more boring aspects should be presented as well. The players don't need to know every minute detail about the legend, but the DMs and contest judges do.

- The Entry may be about a person, place, thing, or anything else, but it must have a hint of mystery. The weekend market in Bayris would not make a good legend. Something that supposedly happened at the market a long time ago or an item that supposedly keeps returning to the market every 100 years, on the other hand, would make a great entry!

It can be past, present, or futuristic (forewarning, etc.) in nature. True or Fake. As mundane as stepping on a crack to break your mama's back, or as epic as The One Ring.

It can funny! While Joke entries are indeed welcome, serious entries should be funny within the context of the world. Funny entries could include cursed items, old gypsy bands, or potentially anything involving Cidals or Brathunspar. The legend of the Khordal stand up comedian just wouldn't be taken seriously. It might still get a laugh and possibly a gag gift prize, but don't expect to take first place with it.

- Entries must be submitted by June 1st (tentative) Entires will be judged by a panel of three judges. They will be judged anonymously, and the judges won't know who submitted which entry until it's over.

- All entries are subject to the ToS

- Fun is Mandatory

”END OF THE FIRST PERIOD. CURRENT SCORE; WILDFIRES: ZERO, FANTASTI'S LAPDOGS: ZERO. YOU HAVE ONE MINUTE BEFORE THE NEXT PERIOD.”

I don't think we're supposed to have zero...

Virago continued wildly skating around the area, swinging his blood stained hockey stick around in a fashion that might remind one of a four year old with his first cardboard tube. He could have competed in the Olympic figure skating championships if only he had passed that drug test.

Luckily The Canadian didn't seem to mind that a nuclear dose of amphetamines were coursing through his veins, and that the pure bloodlust of a psychopathic street fighter was being pent up and prepped to explode.

"HEY, CANADIAN! YOUR CENTER QUIT. POOR FELLER COULDN'T TAKE THE HEAT."

On his third lap around the ice he stopped to notice the rest of his team huddling up. Apparently the game was paused, and seems to have been for several minutes now. He hurried over to join them.

"I'll get you that ball!"

"Huh, ball?" Apparently he missed the conversation. Too bad.
"So guys. Hockey is fun, huh? Did you see what happened to their center? I like playing hockey. It's so much easier to move on these skates. I hope the Canadian lets me keep them. Who should I try to kill this time net man? And what's with the tape? Man this is fun, huh? I liked your snowmen Percy. You should totally try my version and just attack the other guys that come down here. Then make sure you hit that little black thingy down to the other side so those guys *pointing to Danyael and Katie* can do... uh... whatever it is they do.

"But snowmen are cool too I guess."

He knew exactly what he was doing. In total control. At least he thought he was in total control. That wasn't really the issue anymore though. He wanted to kill something. The captain and the woman thing seemed to be well taken care of. Virago needed a target, fast. He swung around and sped back to their goal, where Rooskie was apparently setting some sort of ambush trap. NOW he was playing hockey the right way!

"Hey Goalie, why does the other guy have so much better stuff than you? Hey I got an idea! I killed their guy and then took his stick. Why don't I kill THAT guy and then you can have HIS stuff? Good idea huh? I'm good at this hockey thing, right?"

Either way, there would be blood.

Virago skated to center ice as the new round started. "So uh, since your guys' center can't come out to play, and I have his stick... I think that means I should be the one facing off against Conan here, right? I'm not really good with the rules yet."
