Day 3 at the Chesapeake Olympics: Results of Begging & Yacht Race | |
| Posted on Tuesday, August 19, 2008, 2:22 AM EDT by Terence Duff (Chesapeake) |
Coverage of the Chesapeake Olympics 2008 |  Chesapeake Olympic Games | | Day three at the Chesapeake Olympics began with a begging contest. Beggars were asked to beg from two hirelings, and the amount of gold they received from each was totalled into a 'point total'. The turnout for the begging event was quite small, likely because of the few beggars in Britannia.  Event 5: Begging - WINNERS GOLD: Farina de Arina (Team Malas) SILVER: Mario (Team Felucca) BRONZE: Desire (Team Malas)  The Yacht Race was quite interesting! Famed skipper, and host of the Red Wolf Cafe's Weekly Races, Tancred RedStar took home the gold medal in addition to beating the old course record of 8:22 by one second. Yachtsmen were challenged to sail counterclockwise around Verity Island once being instructed to "BEGIN" and place their boats in the water. Slirith Iceblood took home the silver medal, while Farina de Arina edged past NANOC who had run aground, to claim bronze. Honorable mention goes to NANOC for finishing fourth.  Event 6: Yacht Race - WINNERS GOLD: Tancred RedStar (Team Trammel) SILVER: Slirith Iceblood (Team Ilshenar) BRONZE: Farina de Arina (Team Malas)  The Chesapeake Olympics continue on Friday night beginning at 8pm ET with the Horse Race event. Then at 9pm ET, competitors will face off at the Mare vs Mare contest. For more information, visit the 2008 Chesapeake Olympic Information Page. |

Coverage of the Chesapeake Olympics 2008 |  Chesapeake Olympic Games | | Stubborn daemons were the subject of the evening at night two of the Chesapeake Olympics played out. First, at 8pm, Event #3 kicked off with mages battling one another with summoned daemons. Even though most of the daemons were fierce, they often matched wits, ran out of mana and had to be dispelled in order to start again. Slirith Iceblood took a commanding lead with his powerful daemons in order to dominate his way all the way to a gold medal, with zero losses.  Event 3: Daemon Fighting - WINNERS GOLD: Silrith Iceblood (Team Ilshenar) SILVER: Uzell Cabal (Team Felucca) BRONZE: Farina de Arina (Team Malas)  Hour two began with Event #4 - The Chesapeake History Quiz Show. Returning champion, Winmere, dominated the competition to capture the gold medal once more.  Event 4: Chesapeake History Quiz Show - WINNERS GOLD: Winmere (Team Felucca) SILVER: Silrith Iceblood (Team Ilshenar) BRONZE: Winfield (Team Felucca) The Chesapeake Olympics continue tonight at 8pm with Event #5 - Begging.

Day 1 at the Chesapeake Olympics is a hit!! | |
| Posted on Saturday, August 16, 2008, 12:08 PM EDT by Terence Duff (Chesapeake) |
Coverage of the Chesapeake Olympics 2008 |  Chesapeake Olympic Games | | The Chesapeake Olympics sprinted to a great start last night with two amazing events! Medal hopefuls began the night by gathering for the opening ceremonies at the UO Stratics Center in Zento and suiting up in their favorite team-colored robes. At eight o'clock, the games began with the first of ten events: Malas Track & Field. A simple, but exhausting race through the winding main road of Malas, competitors braved brigand camps and a treacherously confusing mountain pass to quickly arrive at the finish line in Umbra. The pack of runners began in a tightly-knit grouping, but each racer paved their own way down the course, sometimes dodging the very gravel at the edge of the main road.  Event 1: Malas Track & Field - WINNERS GOLD: Farina de Arina (Team Malas) SILVER: Daria Blackmoore (Team Trammel) BRONZE: NANOC (Team Felucca)  Hour two of the evening was very pointed, with daggers flying across the auditorium at the Stratics Center. This hour was home to the Dart Contest! After six rounds of darts, with two competitors not advancing to each consecutive round, three steady shooters were the recipients of medals.  Event 2: Dart Contest - WINNERS GOLD: Odin Blackmoore (Team Trammel) SILVER: Winmere (Team Felucca) BRONZE: Winfield (Team Felucca)  The Chesapeake Olympics continue this evening with two more events, Daemon Fighting and The Chesapeake History Quiz Show.
