i graduated with these kids i swear this town is completly nuts...this is what their planning to do on saturday.

Events
1. Video Games -- A fighter, a racer, and a shooter. Get high scores in all three to win.
2. Digital Photography -- We will scour the terrain for awesome photos of certain things. Will be judged by judges.
3. Boggle -- Be good at word searches that don't have word banks.
4. Bowlings -- Roll a round rock at effigies of our oppressor: The Malformed Ghost of Mr. Peanut.
5. Random -- Several events will be written on scraps of paper. We will draw one from a hat.
6. Random -- Actually, we will draw two.
7. Truth Or Dare -- Different scraps of paper will have commands on them. Follow their instructions or chicken out. If you chicken out three times, you lose.

Supplies I Still Need
- Nintendo 64 with 4 controllers
- Mario Kart 64
- Xbox or Xbox 360 with 4 controllers
- A Wiimote or a Gamecube controller
- The game Boggle
- Each of you to bring a digital camera if you have one
- Each of you to bring money to go bowling (if you don't bring money, we're Wii Bowling instead)
- Foam Swords If You Want Foam Sword Battle to Be in the Random Hat
- Any board game you want to go into the Random Hat

Scoring
The winner of every event will receive 10 pts, with second place then receiving 9 pts, third receiving 8 pts, and so on. If there are more than 10 competitors in an event, whoever comes in eleventh place will receive 0.5 pts, twelfth will receive 0.25 pts, thirteenth will receive 0.125 pts, and so on. Whoever has the most points after seven events will be the champion. The same scoring system will be used for the video game tournament, but say you get first in all three games and have 30 pts within the video game event, you still only get 10 pts for the video game event as a whole.

Plan Bs
Not everything always goes according to plan. Here is the guide to what we will do if things work out in certain cases.
- If Mario Kart 64 is not present, it will be replaced with Crash Team Racing (though I will still need a PlayStation A/V cord if you don't want to do this on a crazy tiny screen).
- If Super Smash Bros. Brawl is no supplied, it will be replaced with Super Smash Bros. Melee, if we can find Gamecube controller (and hopefully a memory card with stuff unlocked).
- If there is no Brawl and no Gamecube controllers, the fighting portion will be filled in with Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style. Yes, seriously.
- If no Xbox is brought, the shooter portion will be filled in with Geist if we have Gamecube controllers.
- If there is no Xbox and no Gamecube controllers, the shooter will be filled in withRevolution X on the Sega Saturn, which we will time with a stop watch to see how long it takes you to die.
- If we have trouble getting three judges for the photography,then we'll reduce scoring to group vote where you can't vote for yourself.
- If we can't find Boggle, we'll use an online Boggle.
- If we can't make it to Derby Bowl or if they're full, we'll use WiiSports.
