smiling thank you snowrose. my time tonight is short as I have to resume my journey early in the AM..
Lets get started.... as always the usual rules ....PM me with topics, keep the chat in whispers
Heretic 20:20:08 pm CDT
*waits to hear this topic*
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:20:43 pm CDT
a request has been made to have Carnival:
Carnivals: Held in many southern cities, notably Port Kar, during the five days of the Twelfth Passage
Hand (March 11th-15th). During this celebration it is often customary to garb oneself in outlandish
costumes or masks and attend various masquerade fetes and feasts.
what say you that are here?
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:21:45 pm CDT
Yes yes yes Master Sandman
Kyoto-Captain, First Sword 20:23:46 pm CDT
What aspects of the festival do we wish to adopt?
Rollo the Ax 20:23:47 pm CDT
Carnivals and Festivals have been held many times in GS..... the ONLY one that was never allowed has
the * Carajaliena * ( spelling not correct ) where slave and Free traded places.......
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:24:55 pm CDT
Kajuralia: "The Festival of Slaves", it is held in most Gorean cities (except Port Kar, where it is not
celebrated at all) on the last day of the Twelfth Passage Hand (March 15th).
angelfire.com/vt/goreanshores/gsinfo/money.html ,, I don't think that will be approved
Tanthio§ 20:26:10 pm CDT
Aye yes that would be ugly *chuckles*
pink fluff {GS} 20:26:18 pm CDT
this one would enjoy attending...and can offer to help..maybe make mask icons...?
SaBom 20:27:20 pm CDT
Especially if we had to wear silks
~shudders at the thought
Urges voting NO on that one
leatha {GS} 20:27:25 pm CDT
lifts her rub her fingertips over girl's slave face. in many ways, she is already masked.
Bretval: Merchant 20:28:30 pm CDT
Rightfully so, Rollo as it was NOT celebrated in Port Kar
pink fluff {GS} 20:29:06 pm CDT
so for clarity for this one...this is to vote yes for Carnival...NOT the Kajuralia.....?
Kyoto-Captain, First Sword 20:29:26 pm CDT
I see no problem with a carnival, but we might be hard pressed to have it ready in a hand.
Kyoto-Captain, First Sword 20:29:51 pm CDT
No to Kajuralia.
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:30:34 pm CDT
Less a vote, for the slaves anyway...more a yessssss please please
Jarl Keeper ~ Advisor ~ Scholar 20:30:56 pm CDT
~I walk through the door, pleased and impressed with the gathering this day.~
Rollo the Ax 20:31:27 pm CDT
From past experience the main problem with any festival/carnival is getting folks to help do the work to
throw it..... LOL... everybody likes to party, but not many want to do the work to make it happen......
Jarl Thorrn - Captain 20:33:56 pm CDT
scratches My head ... carnevil is done for this year´s session *l*
You have to wait till 11 of Novemebr (11/11, the fools date) when it starts again.
Ok, that is how it is on earth
OriginalSandman_Builder/ Sr. Captain of GS 20:34:11 pm CDT
gathering my cloak,, I have to get on the tharlarion quite early in the AM, Brother Thorrn will continue to
run forum
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 20:34:44 pm CDT
ruby baked larma tarts for the dance event..however forgot to serve them..however ruby did dance
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:36:40 pm CDT
The fair of En'Kara (March 21-30)
Could we go to the Sardar Fair...travel there?
Bretval: Merchant 20:36:45 pm CDT
It is a party drinks food games
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:37:40 pm CDT
snowrose is sure the Masters enjoyed ruby's dance even more than They would have her tarts~
Jarl Keeper ~ Advisor ~ Scholar 20:37:53 pm CDT
Be Well Sandman
Oh Dear
Daylight savings has got Me.
Oops
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 20:38:19 pm CDT
ruby would start baking again, if it was decided..
flicka~ slave of Keeper. ~t~. 20:41:00 pm CDT
We had a Festival a while ago, it was organised by Jarl Keeper, it was fun.
Jarl Thorrn - Captain 20:41:50 pm CDT
Kyoto-Captain, First Sword 20:29:26 pm CDT
I see no problem with a carnival, but we might be hard pressed to have it ready in a hand.
Did i miss that a day and time have already been made for that carnival event in GS?
Jarl Keeper ~ Advisor ~ Scholar 20:42:01 pm CDT
I assume We are discussing a carnival of some description.
~Raising My left hand~
I am happy to help organise a carnival, if it be the wish of the Council, but it will have to be after 28th of
March, I am two weeks holiday then.
leatha {GS} 20:42:38 pm CDT
that festival is when leatha first came to know of the home. smiles fondly at the memory
flicka~ slave of Keeper. ~t~. 20:44:33 pm CDT
~groaning~ Jarl please this time, just help. ~laughing softly~ there is much work to be done oh Your
holdings during this term break.
Bretval: Merchant 20:46:03 pm CDT
The 11th to the 15th as they are in the Manual Keeper
But if We could use your rules from last fall...
LionHeart of Old 20:47:27 pm CDT
But would not a dance showing ruby is a tart be enjoyable on both counts?
As I try to catch up
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 20:49:28 pm CDT
blushes hotter to Master Lionheart..ruby will dance, at any party ant festival, any time anywhere..just call
her name
Jarl Keeper ~ Advisor ~ Scholar 20:50:10 pm CDT
~Laughing!~
My flicka, you know the old saying;
"If you want a job done, give it to a busy Man."
Beside, the trees are plants, they will not move between now and when I chop them down!
Tanthio§ 20:50:33 pm CDT
I'll vouch on that heh heh
Jarl Thorrn - Captain 20:51:59 pm CDT
11th to 15th is for Me already filled with rt things and an absence. I will hardly be able to take part in any
of the events on those days/evenings.
Bretval: Merchant 20:52:01 pm CDT
Yes was thinking the 13 for a dance from My meral, and leatha and pink... the white silks
meral{Bv} 20:53:09 pm CDT
smiles a soft smile....yes my Master
pink fluff {GS} 20:53:20 pm CDT
eyes wide...white silks...dancing.........??
leatha {GS} 20:54:20 pm CDT
leatha did not get to perform her white silks on the last dance night. she got whipped and branded.
smiles touching the now healed brand
Rollo the Ax 20:54:34 pm CDT
LOL... you need to borrow a true axe, brother Keeper ?? a Kurri battle axe would make short work of
some plain old trees...... LOL..
Bretval: Merchant 20:54:40 pm CDT
And yes ruby and maybe flicka to dance
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:54:44 pm CDT
yes pink fluff. we'll talk about that later...white silks may dance
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 20:55:23 pm CDT
maybe the Sardar Fair days would be a better time?
Jarl Thorrn - Captain 20:55:37 pm CDT
Bretval
What about You to supervise the preparations of the carnival events?
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 20:55:53 pm CDT
good sweet leatha
then your all prepared?
Bretval: Merchant 20:56:34 pm CDT
Only if you wish, fluffy one...
flicka~ slave of Keeper. ~t~. 20:56:34 pm CDT
oh dear Master Bretval, now You have really turned flicka's head into a frenzy and she is even more
confused than she was earlier.
Please may flicka ask which festival we are speaking of?
As far as flicka knows these are the festivals.
The fair of En'Kara (March 21-30)
The fair of En'var (June 19-28)
The fair of Se'Kara (September 22-October 1)
The fair of Se'Var (December 21-30)
leatha {GS} 20:56:39 pm CDT
leatha has hers ready. she may even tweaked it a little if she gets to dance. she wrote it many weeks ago
and has learned so much from lessons and class. it needs to be rewritten.
flicka~ slave of Keeper. ~t~. 20:57:35 pm CDT
ah mistress snowrose, that is what flicka was thinking of The Sardar Fairs.
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 20:58:14 pm CDT
ruby thinks
let do both
Jarl Thorrn - Captain 20:59:04 pm CDT
i see , you are well prepared to display your skills leatha.
pink fluff {GS} 20:59:21 pm CDT
nods to Master Bretval and whispers..this one will do what ever pleases the Free
Bretval: Merchant 20:59:28 pm CDT
Of course, Captain Thorrn I started the whole thing... this is Me reward *LOL like Rollo*
Rollo the Ax 21:00:49 pm CDT
How about holding this * festival * when ever we want, and call it * The Thing Fair * like we have in
Torvaldsland ?? a Thing fair is simply a big get together to take care of business, drink, meet old friends,
drink, watch dances, drink, and FIGHT ~!!!!
Jarl Thorrn - Captain 21:01:40 pm CDT
Fine Bretval that You take it that way.
It is good to have one caring for things.
Do you already have ideas for the following days after the dance of the sdlaves?
Better to discuss it tonight already and make it known to the people, in case they have to prepare
something.
flicka~ slave of Keeper. ~t~. 21:01:52 pm CDT
~evil little chuckle~
flicka can dance, she has a special one right now, one that will maybe excite a few Masters.
Tanthio§ 21:02:44 pm CDT
Nice Rollo, perhaps a monthly event heh heh
Rollo the Ax 21:02:45 pm CDT
Has there been a date set yet
flicka~ slave of Keeper. ~t~. 21:03:52 pm CDT
~clapping her hands~
Master Rollo, oh yes!
This girl loved The Things we had of old. So much carousing so much drinking by the Jarls, so much
wenching, also by the Jarls.
Really fun medieval games.
Lita, Physician 21:05:40 pm CDT
flicka, there4 are four Sar Dar Fairs each year. Mostly involving the Physician's Caste: Ubar Luther says:
But, Physicians from different cities do find ways to interact with each other. The Sardar Fairs, the four
major fairs held each year on the plains below the Sardar Mountains, are a spectular place for the
Physicians, and other Castes, to meet and share information. Caste conventions may be able to discuss
general caste-wide issues. Research can be shared and compared. New discoveries spread across Gor at
these fairs. These fairs are very important to the Physician's Caste.
Jarl Keeper ~ Advisor ~ Scholar 21:05:48 pm CDT
~Slapping My leg, knocking flicka sideways, laughing.~
The Thing!
Drinking, slaves, and violence!
What more could a Gorean ask for?
Rollo the Ax 21:05:56 pm CDT
LOL... the Thing festival was held once a year, Tanthios.... but who needs a festival to drink and fight
in the OLD days of GS, there were spars between warriors and any other men of GS almost any week.....
to keep in practice, not to injure .......
flicka~ slave of Keeper. ~t~. 21:07:40 pm CDT
Yes Mistress Lita, four times a year.
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 21:08:10 pm CDT
chuckles behind cupped fingers to Jarl Keeper
Bretval: Merchant 21:08:20 pm CDT
As it starts on the 11th... Wednesday I was thinking slave class could be cancelled and the girls would be
availabele for Northern style party
Lita, Physician 21:08:28 pm CDT
The Sardar fairs are held four times each year in the shadow of the Sardar Mountains, on the plains below
the western slopes. Though the Merchant Caste effectively arranges and administers the fairs they are
nominally under the direction of a committee of Initiates. But they content themselves with doing just its
ceremonies and sacrifices. They are more than happy to delegate the administrative details to the
Merchants. The Initiates have decreed though that it is a crime against the Priest-Kings to engage in
violence or bloodshed at the fairs. This prohibition though does not extend to slaves. In addition, no one
may be enslaved at the fair though slaves can be purchased.
Kyoto-Captain, First Sword 21:08:58 pm CDT
If anyone is interested in travel, I know of some sites that host Sardar fairs, you can interact with people
from all over
Tanthio§ 21:08:58 pm CDT
Aye not much of that these days it appears Rollo
Jarl Keeper ~ Advisor ~ Scholar 21:09:23 pm CDT
~Grinning~
Maybe the odd injury or two Rollo.
Ask Bretval from last year's Festival.
~Evil Grin~
Rollo the Ax 21:10:07 pm CDT
One high point of the Thing fair was always the two man team fights...... much like real battle..... one man
held the shield to protect, the other fought with sword or axe...... three shield limit.... once your three
shields are broken, you either yielded or died.........
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 21:11:18 pm CDT
the Tavern has been much busier of late..smiling to Master Tanthios..a lot more just general getting
together
Tanthio§ 21:13:05 pm CDT
Aye it has indeed ruby, much more than say last year smiles
Bretval: Merchant 21:13:59 pm CDT
Snowrose... yes We should have a Sardar Fair... just not this time... maybe put everyone on tarns and fly
there nest time
Rollo the Ax 21:14:26 pm CDT
Like I said, has any date been set yet ?
Jarl Keeper ~ Advisor ~ Scholar 21:16:01 pm CDT
~Looking across at Bretval~
I think it starts this Wednesday/Thursday Rollo
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 21:17:51 pm CDT
Master Bretval
perhaps Friday..can be a Euro day..my Jarl will be Home at last
flicka~ slave of Keeper. ~t~. 21:18:55 pm CDT
~chortling~ ruby, surely He will have other things on His mind if He is just home.
Ahem,like removing His boots.
fidget {GS} ~t 21:19:24 pm CDT
~makes a bet that the boots don't make it off~
Jarl Keeper ~ Advisor ~ Scholar 21:19:59 pm CDT
Friday GS time will be Saturday in The Land of the Large Marsupials. That would be good for us.
flicka~ slave of Keeper. ~t~. 21:20:22 pm CDT
fidget, they haven't so far on the couple of occasions He has popped in for a "quickie"
SaBom 21:20:41 pm CDT
You're supposed to take your boots off
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 21:20:52 pm CDT
lol flicka..my Jarl arrives on Thurs..hmmm perhaps Your right..will still be in His furs..not sleeping
either..blush
fidget {GS} ~t 21:21:21 pm CDT
~laughing~
fidget wonders if greetings were even exchanged
~winks at ruby~
leatha {GS} 21:21:25 pm CDT
leatha is unsure how much she can be available this week, but she is sure a good time will to be had by
all.
Lita, Physician 21:21:51 pm CDT
then Keeper, perhaps You could bring one or more of those Large marsupiaLS TO SHOW OFF at the
fair, and earn a bit of coin in doing so, to defray Your expenses.
Rollo the Ax 21:21:57 pm CDT
Okay... between galah and myself we have some medical appointments so I can't promise to be here
much..........
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 21:22:35 pm CDT
snowrose is in the same boat as leatha this week. will be just back from spring break...always a busy first
week for her
Bretval: Merchant 21:22:44 pm CDT
Hmm... hope He is not superstitious, ruby... but yes ... Euro day it is
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 21:22:50 pm CDT

fidget {GS} ~t 21:23:08 pm CDT
fidget doesn't watch and tell
~laughing~
fidget {GS} ~t 21:23:12 pm CDT
much
Jarl Keeper ~ Advisor ~ Scholar 21:23:40 pm CDT
fidget I think the greeting may have been have been something like;
"Brace yourself ruby."
~Chuckling~
pink fluff {GS} 21:23:40 pm CDT
boots...chuckles....socks are good though right.....?
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 21:23:47 pm CDT

ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 21:24:57 pm CDT
Jarl Keeper

fidget {GS} ~t 21:24:58 pm CDT
Jarl Keeper ~ more like 'hrummrphhhurm hrusmpphsyyrrb'
Rollo the Ax 21:25:32 pm CDT
It depends on where he is wearing that sock, pink....... LOL...
Heretic 21:26:41 pm CDT
*chuckles with Rollo*
Bretval: Merchant 21:27:02 pm CDT

leatha {GS} 21:27:54 pm CDT
rises to walk back to the slave furs, rubbing her bum as she was dropped many times by Master Kyoto
fighting many urts.

Jarl Thorrn - Captain 21:37:23 pm CDT
So, is there a fixed schedule now for the carnival?
*Looks over to the party-supervisor Bretval*
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 21:37:53 pm CDT

Jarl Thorrn - Captain 21:38:35 pm CDT

Are the Ozzies changing to euro-money?
*grin*
Jarl Thorrn - Captain 21:39:44 pm CDT
or became Aussieland a member of the EU
I mean beyond taking part in the European Song Contest of this year?
Jarl Keeper ~ Advisor ~ Scholar 21:40:07 pm CDT
~Laughing~
I don't thing so Thorrn, the Europeans will not have the drunken barbarians from the Terra Australis
Incognito!
Bretval: Merchant 21:42:18 pm CDT
Captain Thorrn I think We have enough info to put together a kick ass festival... so feel free to close
forum if there is no other topics to speak to
Jarl Keeper ~ Advisor ~ Scholar 21:43:29 pm CDT
Eurovision, 2 500 years of magnificent civilisation and culture; the climax of this incredible progression,
a song competition!
pink fluff {GS} 21:44:09 pm CDT
hay dont knock the Eurovision song contest...It ROCKSSS!!!!!!
Rollo the Ax 21:44:30 pm CDT
LOL...LOL... Ozzy day is anytime that Oz beats England in cricket or any other sporting event.......
LOL...LOL...
Jarl Thorrn - Captain 21:44:56 pm CDT
I think so too Bretval
BUT, just express that planned day(s) of the fetsval in clear words. I don´t have a clue what those Ozzy
and euro days are. Others either.
meral{Bv} 21:45:07 pm CDT
agrees with Jarl Keeper....laughs
Rollo the Ax 21:46:17 pm CDT
didn't an OZZY guy just win that song contest ?
snowrose{JTr}'s pleasure~GS~fg 21:46:51 pm CDT
Is that like American Idol? An elimination contest of singers?
Bretval: Merchant 21:46:54 pm CDT
OZ/Euro day on Friday is dance day around the world ... time and event to be determined and posted on
the corks
pink fluff {GS} 21:46:55 pm CDT
merel...NOOOOOO.........
ruby~{Randolph} ~t~ 21:47:21 pm CDT
just don't plan on ruby and her Jarl Thursday...We will be dancing in the furs
meral{Bv} 21:47:29 pm CDT
pinky...yesssssss its rubbish....giggles
Rollo the Ax 21:50:24 pm CDT
Well folks, it is time for this old berserker to go berserk some place else......LOL.... Be Well, all....... may
Wodin the one eyed watch over my home and all those that enter it......
meral{Bv} 21:50:31 pm CDT
all the European Countries send a singer to sing one song then the songs are voted for by the countries
snowrose, it lasts for days...or seems too...a transvestite from somewhere won it last year...laughs
Jarl Thorrn - Captain 21:50:47 pm CDT
Rollo,
if you see the guy (from Austria) who won that Song Contest last time you will be glad that he is NOT
from Australia *LOL*
No, snowrose. That ESC is for professional singers to win the crown of the best european song of the
year. The winner is the composer of the song, the artist is just some bringing the song to the satge but of
cause he/she feels also as winner.
Jarl Thorrn - Captain 21:52:44 pm CDT
So all is said and anmed. I clsoe the forum of tonight and thank Bretval for taking the elad for the carnival
party.
Thank you to the scribe, i think i read that My snowrose did it tonight.
