Jugging - Standard Jugging Rules apply

5 man teams, full class Boat Battles - 2 Boats, 20ftX30 Ft. connected by 2 20ft planks. Each team will have a 5ftX10ft connected" staging area that will be considered Below Deck. No combat in the below deck sections. Each team will have a life pool of 20. Instant respawn. Stepping off the boats/planks is instant death.

Militia battle. full teams, grand melee. Each team will be placed on one of two armies. Overall point values will be determined on the total number of banner wars teams. Each team on the winning side will be granted winning points, teams on the loosing side will be granted half points (rounded up in case of half point). (IE if we have 10 teams in Banner Wars, there will be 10 points given to each team on winning side, 5 points for loosing side. If there are 5 teams, then winning side gets 5 pts, loosing side gets 3)

The Main War. Full class last life battle. Each team will be assigned a 2ft x 3 ft banner. Each team will have a starting castle. To win a team must have both their own banner(s) and the opposing teams banner(s) in a fixed location in their own castle. Banners are cumulative. Basically in 1st round each team will only have their own banner. Round 2 each team will have 2 banners. Round 3, 4 banners... etc...

SCORING SYSTEM
We will be using the more traditional 0-5 point scale. The Judges will be instructed that an absolutely average item should receive a score or 2.5.

Contestants may only Enter 3 entries per category, and only your highest scoring entry per category will count towards your overall score.

Spoiler! :
Cooking
Due to the delicate nature of cooking entries, this category will be judged first. Entries will be judged on taste, texture, appetizing presentation and difficulty. There will be *5 judges(Please see top of post) and entrants will need to provide enough of each entry for all of them to taste. Be prepared to have a way to maintain your own dish until it can be judged (hot/cold). Bring plates, cups and utensils if they will be needed to judge your entry.
• Appetizer: A dish intended to be served as an appetizer.
• Main: Course: A dish intended to be served as a main course.
• Dessert: A dish intended to be served as a dessert.
• Brewer/Vintner: A drink that is alcoholic. Must be clearly labeled as such.
• Beverage: A drink is not alcoholic.
• Other: A dish or drink that does not fit into any other category.
Writing
Entries will be judged, where applicable, on form, content, grammar, spelling and usefulness to the body of Amtgard knowledge. With the exception of publications, please try to limit these entries to 5 pages or less.
• Factual: Writing that presents factual information such as a process, event or research of some kind. Examples would be weaponsmithing instructions, a recounting of an Amtgard event or a history of the Mongols. When presenting researched information, it is a good idea to cite references and give credit.
• Fictional: Writing that is not intended to be factual such as persona histories and stories.
• Poetry: Poetic verse.
• Publications: Published works such as newsletters, books, collections of articles, etc. These entries are judged on the editorial content only, such as presentation, suitability of the collection, format, etc. It is not necessary that the entrant have written every article. However, articles should never be published without the author's consent and credit should be given. Any work not done by the entrant should be noted.
Bardic
Entries will be judged on difficulty and entertainment value.
• Singing: A vocal presentation with some expectation of rhythm and pitch.
• Oratory: A vocal presentation with no expectation of rhythm or pitch; i.e. Storytelling, jokes and theatrical pieces.
• Instrumental: A musical presentation performed on an instrument with some expectation of rhythm and pitch.
• Dance: A presentation of bodily movement with some expectation of rhythm.
Art
Entries will be judged on artistic presentation and the difficulty of the medium.
• 2-D Art: Art intended to be viewed from only one side such as drawings, paintings, stained glass, relief carving, computer graphics, etc.
• 3-D Art: Art intended to be viewed from at least 3 sides such as sculptures, painted miniatures, stuffed animals, blown glass, etc.
People often enter things into this category that would do better in Passive Construction. 3-D art is judged primarily on artistic presentation; Passive Construction is judged primarily on construction. A stained glass box would go into either 3-D Art of Passive Construction depending on what the entrant wanted to focus.
• Photography: Art created by taking a picture. Digital images that are mostly photographic would also fit into this category.
Garb
Entries will be judged on durability, attractiveness, design and difficulty.
• Fighting: A major item of garb intended to be worn in battle such as tunics, pants, tabards, shirts, etc.
• Court: A major item of garb not intended to be worn in battle such as dresses, doublets, cloaks, etc.
• Monster: A major item of garb that would qualify as garb for a monster in the Amtgard Rulebook.
• Favor: A garb accessory intended to be worn on one's belt.
• Jewelry: A garb accessory intended to be worn as jewelry such as crowns, coronets, necklaces, bracelets, rings, etc.
• Accessory: A minor item of garb such as hats, belts, shoes, bracers, etc. that would not fit into another category.
Construction
Entries are judged on construction, presentation, difficulty and application to proposed function.
• Passive: Something not intended to go onto the battlefield such as boxes, steel weapons, decorative wooden weapons, stuffed animals, etc. This is a category for constructed items that would not fit into another category.
• Active: Something intended to be used on the battlefield such as ballistae, bows, fighting wands or throwing mugs. This is a generic category for things that would not fit into armor, weapon, or shield construction yet are still intended for rough battlefield use.
• Armor: Something that would qualify as armor by the rulebook standards in Amtgard such as padded armor, chainmail, brigantine, greaves, thigh plates, helmets (although they would not actually count as armor), etc.
• Weapon: Something that would qualify as a weapon by the rulebook standards in Amtgard such as sword, spear, arrows, rocks, throwing daggers, madus, etc.
