If any of you don't know, 2/9/16 is the huge celebration of Mardi Gras, most popular in the US city of New Orleans, Louisiana. Me being Paulyus1, of course I forgot about it so instead of celebrating it for one day, we're going to make a whole three day celebration until Friday.
For any of you who don't know what Mardi Gras is, here's a little summary of it. Marti Gras, otherwise known as Fat Tuesday, refers to the Carnival* celebrations. *Carnival - a festive season leading up to the Christian Lent Mardi Gras is the French term for "Fat Tuesday", where you eat a lot of food and then fast the day after [Ash Wednesday]. In other words, you can eat as much McDonalds as your heart desires, as long as you agree not to the next day.
Traditions include wearing gold / purple / green accessories such as masks and costumes, dancing, huge parades, sporting events, and more. To celebrate, we will be hosting two different events on Friday; both taking place at the Riverview café. The first event will be the Mardi Gras costume contest. There will be 1-3 winners depending on how many people show. It must be Mardi Gras inspired, but don't worry, Roblox already has about a page (if not more) of stuff made just for Mardi Gras. The second event will be a Mardi Gras inspired art contest. You can either make a short game based on Mardi Gras, or create some Mardi Gras inspired art; but it must have Roblox elements incorporated. By that, we mean you cannot use any images of real-life Mardi Gras celebrations or existing art. There will only be one winner.
Remember, have fun and don't take this too seriously. Winners will receive a FREE INVESTOR ticket FOR LIFE. So do your best! For your costume, we will provide you with admin to dress up during the event, so don't worry about buying the stuff. Artwork / creations must be PMed to Paulyus1 by the starting time of the event. The event will begin at 4:30 PM EST / 9:30 PM GMT. Again, it will be at Riverview Café under the Extrance Corporation games tab. |
