Competitions will be hosted in Tomonah Hall in the Gut. If you want to sponsor a prize category, post to comments.

In the box near the door you will find a full perm scripted drink loaded with some mediocre animations that you may tear apart, a coaster loaded with an object giver, and a cardholder. You do not have to use these items, they are simply provided as a starting place.
Category 3 – Vintage Advertisements
Sponsor – The Porthead Tavern in Port Babbage.
This one is for the 2D folks. The advertisement must be for something you can drink. 1 prim.
Place entries on the walls.
Prizes: 3000/2000/1000
1st Place: Verlia Bilavio
2nd Place: Junie Ginsburg
3rd Place: Ianone Constantine
::runs around trying to come up with ideas::
I will put up 500 Lindens for the best cup of coffee!
((We’ll bring Buddy the Elf in to judge that. Sorry, couldn’t resist. :-) ))
Category 4 – Bar Snacks.
Because snacks must be rezzed, keep the prims to under 5. Most bars run very close to thier prim limits. Place snacks near the bar label that you think it would be most likely to be served in.You may set it for sale.
Prizes 1500/1000/500
no takers.
Category 1 – Bartender Folder Drinks.
A Bartender Folder Drink is a wearable drink of the sort a bartender would keep in inventory to hand out to customers. It may be specific to a particular establishment. It must be scripted and posed, with appropriate permissions, in 15 prims or less.
In the hall you will notice that there are cardholders on the tables for different bars. Place your drink near the cardholder of the bar that you think it would be most likely to be served in. Put the wearable drink in a coaster giver so people can sample it, and then set an unscripted display version of the drink on the coaster so everyone can look at it. You can put the bartender version inside the display version if you want to set it for sale so people can add it to their stock.
Full perm samples of drinks and coaster givers are in the box near the front door, you can tear them apart for scripts and animations if you cannot figure out how to make your own.
Prizes: 3000/2000/1000
OK, I am going to risk looking silly. Was there any entries in the folder drinks category? (I did not see anything)
If there was no drinks for your tavern what drinks would people be willing to make available?
I found 2 or 3 dispensers in the regional section that let me buy them. Does this mean I can use them in my tavern?
Last question: Mr. Melnik how did you manage to come up with so many drinks even though you had been poisoned? Well done Sir!
yes, yes you can. of course you can.
i’m about half way thru sampling all the drinks… *hic* … you didn’t think i was goiing to be able to do this in one night?
Miss Tripsa should be back in tomorrow night to look at the posters. its been a great lazy long weekend for the north americans, hope everyone is getting out and enjoying it!
1st – the steam shot, by Arnold.
2nd – ravilan sarnac, by Verlia Bilavio
3rd – gin&tonic, by Satu Moreau
Category 2 – Regional Brews and Spirits.
A Regional is a display object that a bartender would put in the bar to dispense drinks. It must give a scripted animated wearable drink to anyone that touches it and and be in 15 prims or less.
Place entries for Regionals on the labeled table near the wall. Feel free to set it for sale so bartenders can add it to their stock.
The region your drink hails from does not necessarily have to appear on the grid. For the newer folks, this is how those other towns magically appear on the map.

Just curious, Do we have a guess on how many drinking establishments are in town?
16 or 17
plus anywhere that Jimmy or DreadPirateBob happen to be……
Brother Jonathan Spires put in the only cup of coffee. Spiked coffee. I think I have just begun to drink!
So good, I’ll need to try them all again *hiccups ((and well done imaginators on your creations))
better hurry, i’m clearing that lot and putting it back on the market this morning.
And better hurry if you want any of the ones I made for free. After this, they’re going up on the marketplace.
The drinking hall’s already been removed.
Anyways, Mr. Blackberry’s expressed an interest in providing the Steam Shot at his establishment. If any other bar owner happens to want a full perm version of one of my drinks (this includes the right to fix/edit/remove: clashing/poor/stupid dialogue, scripts, textures, etc) just send me an IM. I don’t know if Mr. Blackberry wanted exclusive rights to the Steam Shot, but I’ll ask him later tonight.
So what do we drink? Take a look:
THE PUNCH BOWL (Armada Breakaway)
Cannon Rum Shot. Special mention to the animation on this one!
THE GANGPLANK (Clockhaven)
Fermented Vole Milk, fermented in a vole airig wineskin (Tepic Harlequin)
How many voles did he have to milk for this?
Bartenders Revenge (Arnold)
Week old milk and battery acid would taste better than this. What did I do to deserve this?
Amontillado by the glass (Brother Lapis)
serve cold with revenge
THE OLD BREWERY (Clockhaven)
Beer Punch with Wiggyfish (Amadeus Hammerer and Obscura Benoir)
The thick skin of the wiggyfish allows it to survive in an alcholic environment, but nonetheless it lifts it head above the foam to gasp for air. Interesant… sehr interasant….
VRAI VERT (Clockhaven)
Sweet White Dessert Wine (Brother Lapis).
A delightful muscato to go with dessert, or substitute for dessert if you’ve reached the ends of your corset.
RED RUM CAVE (Clockhaven)
Legendary Mountain Bitters. From Bump. Who knew it came in pony bottles?
PORTHEAD TAVERN (Port Babbage)
Dabtoes Ale (Tesla Tripsa)
Brewed especially for the Porthead. A perfect complement to eggs and toast.
Angler Ale (Junie Ginsburg)
Mmm. Biolumen Essence. You can drink it in the dark.
LOKI’S ABSINTHE (Babbage Square)
Wiggy-Cola (Nathaniel Lorefield)
May cause belching or flatulence.
THE RUSTY COG (Babbage Square)
Rasberry Dream (Kimika Ying)
Watch out for the raspberries going up your nose.
RUBY’S (Babbage Canals)
AHAB’S BANE TAVERN (New Babbage)

Snake Fang Brew (Arnold)
May cause hallucinations.
THE APOTHECARY (Wheatstone Waterways)
Tranquility Tonic (Belle Milleneaux)
THE IRON SEAHORSE INN (Wheatstone Waterways)
WindMeUp Spiked Coffee! (Jonathon Spires)
Selected by Brother Malus as best cup of coffee. Even if it is spiked.
HUXLEY TOWER PUB & WINE BAR (Vernian Sea)
Alcoholic Steam Shot (Arnold)
Hint: breathe deep. Highly experimental.
BRUNEL HALL (Academy of Industry)
Loco Cocoa (Verlia Bilavio)
Cocoa with a hint of cinnamon and a dash of laudanum. Life is good.
BUCKET OF BLOOD (New Babbage)
Bucket o’ Blood (Arnold)
Absolutely disgusting.
Ravilan Red Sarnec (Verlia Bilavio)
Served in an elegant cut crystal glass. Stolen, no doubt.
Inverness Blackwing Scotch Whiskey (Mr. Underby)
Served neat.
Gin and Tonic (Satu Moreau)
Kudos on the fizzy texture movement.
‘CUFFS (Port Babbage)
Glass of Fresh Vole Juice.
Made with a vole-o-matic?
Clank-No-More
lubrication for our mechanical friends
Laggy Lager
Yeah…. our favorite….
Beer Goggles
everyone looks better in goggles
Liquid Courage.
Does it give you that, or do you need that to drink it?
Babbage Canals Water
Why do you think it’s flammable?
Very Bloody Mary
Blooooody Marrrrry! Blooooody Maaaarrry! AAAAHHHH!
Optimist’s Beer
it… floats?
Pessimist’s Beer
never turn your back on your beer or you’ll get this if urchins are around.
((I have been out of town/off sim for a while and missed the festivities. Hopefully the drinks will continue to be served. Bottoms up to all the contest winners.))
