Do you mean an idea for the theme of an event or just the: who, what, where, when, how, ect.

Anything goes at the moment.
any ideas for a place to hold it, when it might be best to have it.
have any cool ideas for things that could happen at it, or just something you want to happen at it (like a javelin throwing contest!).
Anything.
I will try and post tomorrow on some of my ideas.

Well if it gets warm enough my farm is a great option for holding an event. There is plenty of field and wood and even, if you are a tough guy, a real bridge complete with water to be pushed into. Also there are two coulees that will offer up new challenges. One being fighting on a slope.
If you want to hold an event soon I would say that the best place for it is Nose Creek Park.
A javelin throwing contest sounds good. Thats a skill that in our group is not emphasized or practiced. There just there to add a little distraction but they are not used as a main method in killing people. That said however they are great distraction and I have to admit that I have "died" and/or been "crippled" by javelins allot and that is why the skill should be perfected.

Archery might be a good one, too. Maybe some sweet tournies and prizes might go well, and some serious team battles that aren't just fooling around but playing for a prize/ranking. That would be pretty sweet.

Archery, thats a good one. If we have enough people a gladiator pit tournament would be good option as well. I would also like to see a capture the flag tournament except the flags would be spears.

Or maybe actual big flags? Or, big flags on the spears... Ned, your farm would be epic, though, we will have wait for warm weather to do that, so probably spring or summer. though, it it turns out like this year, more likely the early fall... I would love to see some big field battles, and scenario battles. Also, Cystic suggested the other day that we have a bel "conference" at some point, which I think would go well back to back with mini event, conference on friday, event starter-day, or something like that. Also, this is a good article on events: www.dagorhir.com/HowTo/dagorhirbattles.htm |

I meant that flags would also be spears. It kind of goes along the concept of Belegarth Football were the guy who picks up the foot ball has to drop his weapons and only have the "football". Its the same idea, just when the guy drops his weapons he picks up a spear with a flag on it.
Yes, that is a very good article. It shows how to organize an event and keep it going smoothly which is essential for any event.
