Re: Competition at Lord Brahm's Request...

I can't thank you enought LC for creating this event for crafters to partake in!! I have a quick question though. Are the ballot boxes going to be placed after the turn-in cutoff has passed?

Re: Competition at Lord Brahm's Request...

No voting will begin until after tonight, midnight then I already know what I'm going to after that.

I'm really glad everyone is enjoying the contest AND I'm very impressed at the number of entries. This morning, I think I left it at 26 entries. CRAZY!

I like this competition as well. It's always neat to see something you've done impact the persistent UO world. I've fought side by side with Lord Brahm in more than one battle so it's cool to think that the next time we take up arms together he might just be wearing one of our suits.

Again, LC, awesome idea. Really simple, inclusive to the whole shard, and you actually get to see the results of your efforts. Thank you!

#22 is cool, but it looks like an evil king
# 4 is great but not for a king... it's for a GOD

I still can't get what is my favourite.

Honorable mention to #18 because it trains healing. Have a look on it

Re: Competition at Lord Brahm's Request...

I like number #14, Look normal, doesnt look to much, A great gold plate, perfect for a king.

Re: Competition at Lord Brahm's Request...

I think King or Lord, I don't think of someone all done up wearing the biggest and best armor for all pieces of them. RARELY throughout history have Kings or Lords fought in battles that would require them to wear so much armor. It's why I like #15 the best. he still has armor that is fit for a king, yet gives off the persona that he is still THE KING, or Lord, that gets others to do the fighting.

Re: Competition at Lord Brahm's Request...

I went with dark armour, because it looks snazzy and intimidating, but with softer colors portray the "light" which I would imagine a Lord Brahm to demonstrate as a lord to his subjects. And then a bit of color so it didn't all blend in to blah. I like a good majority though, so *shrugs*.

# 4 is great but not for a king... it's for a GOD

.. #4 is most appropriate.. after all, the whole story behind this competition alludes to "The Emperor's New Clothes"..

Were I King, I'd walk around in a cloth ninja suit all day. Why? I'm a big fan of natural fibers. 100% cotton FTW. The King must have comfort! I imagine wearing platemail all day can cause quite the body odor issues. Plus, a cloth ninja suit would be kind of like wearing your pajamas all day. What's the point of being King if you can't wear your pajamas until noon? Plus, ninjas are just plain awesome.

Not to be contredictory but.....

Greetings, citizens of Britainnia -

Lord Brahm has requested a bit of a competition among the crafters of our lands. The last few battles have left his armor battered and bent. His cloak is showing frayed near the edges and his sash has seem to lost its luster. His request is that those with a sense of fashion and skill with the hammer and needle create him new armor. The armor must be stately as a Lord would not wear anything less (a requirement by Lady Crimson).

The task is to create a suit of armor with accessory items (cloak, sash, etc) fit for Lord Brahm.

Re: Competition at Lord Brahm's Request...

perhaps Lord Brahm is considering to retire to a more genteel, executive role in the administrative discharge of his Lord-ly duties? thus leaving the 'frontline', implementation aspect of aforementioned Lord-ly duties (and the requisite armor-wearing) to his subordinate? hehe

Re: Competition at Lord Brahm's Request...

That's not contradictory at all.

His armor is worn, and he needs something new fit for a Lord. Who's to say he's going to soon continue in battle? Maybe he wants some new armor (as the person above me stated) for more administrative, and Lordly duties.

Re: Competition at Lord Brahm's Request...

To the players with interest, Brahm has selected seven of his favorite suits crafted. He has had these mannequin's moved into the castle. They are upstairs to the north just before entering the throne room. He has requested your assistance in sharing with him your opinion of the armors selected. If you could please stop by the castle and cast a vote into the ballot box for the mannequin(s) you like the best, he would be very appreciative.

Please note, you may cast a vote for multiple mannequins. Only the aye votes will be counted and Brahm reserves the right to the final decision, even if it is different than popular request (he understands some may act less than desirable in an attempt to sway the voting process).

Again, thank you for your time.
