    Your Chill Rundown of This Week in Wintreath
    August 29, 2022

    Wintreath is On: Discord | Forums | NationStates | Twitter

    Too Long; Didn't Read
    What can I do this week?



    A Word from the Monarch

    Your Time in Wintreath's Summersend Festival!

    Since it's a D&D festival, I imagine these will come in handy...

    After a year off, Summersend is back and better than ever with many spam games, contests, fun events, and forum games! For those who haven't attended yet, here's a guide of everything that's going on so far! The festival runs until September 4th, and we hope to see our members, Citizens, and friends there for fun games, booths, and discussions!



    MAJOR GAMES

    As always, we have some major forum games running throughout the festival! If you want a true competition that spans the course of the festival where you can prove victorious over other players, these are the topics for you! And it wouldn't be a Dungeons and Dragons themed festival without somebody trying to put together a D&D campaign, so check out the link for that as well!

    Summersend Clickwar Battle
    Wintreath's multiplayer clicker game, where players click on tiles to rack up points and gain control over the board. Players can join in throughout the festival, but of course the eaarlier you join the longer you have to make your mark in the game!

    Summersend D&D Campaign
    Take part in an epic D&D campaign hosted by Kiddian by joining here! Sign-ups are open until the 30th, and the game will only proceed if there's at least 4 players signed up by then. If you want to make this happen, join the game at the link!

    Summersend One Night Ultimate Werewolf! (SIGNUPS OPEN!)
    Hosted by Arenado, this is faster-paced version of Werewolf that plays out over one game night (a few actual days), where villagers get one chance to to nab a wolf...any wolf! If you like Werewolf but don't like how games can drag on for weeks, this may be the game for you! Sign-ups are open until the 30th, so join quick to get in on the action!

    Summersend Spyfall II (SIGNUPS OPEN!)
    Some players, some roles, and a location...what location? That's for the players (and Michi as host) to know and the spy not to find out! This game all about asking questions...for the spy, to figure out where the location is, and for the players to figure out who the spy is. Signups will be open until 5 players have signed up, so join ASAP if you want to play!



    BOOTHS

    A little less involved than a major game, a little more involved than topic spam, this is for when you want something in the middle. Take fun quizzes, join in some discussions, or lend your thoughts, songs, or image to a group effort! Perfect for those with a little time to spare or who are killing time between other Summersend events.

    Bard College Entrance Exam || Writing/Poetry Contest
    Submit your stories, poems, limericks, songs, or any other kind of writing that has to do with the theme of fantasy, fables, and fortunes. The contest will run until September 2nd, with a vote following to select the best entry!

    Create Your Festival Persona!
    Use one of the character creators to make your persona for the festival, then share and compare with everybody else's!

    Do You Hear Boss Music? || Playlist Creation Station
    Marzipan is putting together a playlist of boss fight music, doomsday themes, and "any song that screams 'the bad guy won! it's all over!'". The only rule is that the song must be on Spotify so it can be added to the playlist, so check the topic out to add a song in!

    Michi's Silly Helmet and Magical Hat Shack
    Not sure what kind of hat you want to wear to the festival? Let Michi pick one out for you by telling him the sort of hat you'd like! He's got plenty of experience, having done this since the very first Summersend, so trust him with your festival head fashion!

    Show us your familiars!
    A themed excuse to show off your pets real, virtual, imagined, or otherwise!

    Summersend Group Photo
    Our resident countryball artist, TGN, is creating a group photo for the festival! Just let him know in the topic whether you want to use your NationStates flag, Discord PFP, or forum avatar and he'll include you in!

    What's Your Alignment
    What would be a D&D-themed festival without a quiz to get your alignment? Good, evil, lawful, chaotic...what are you? Take the quiz, find out, and share with everybody else!



    SPAM GAMES AND CASUAL TOPICS

    In addition to our main games and booths, relax by playing one of our spam games. Spam games are quick, casual, and so easy to get they don't need a description. Some don't even keep score, because sometimes it's the journey rather than the destination, right?


    Hope to see you there, and stay frosty!

    What's Happening Now
    News from Wintreath

    Thane Elections Open!
    Nominations for Thane (Vice-Minister) are open, with many familiar faces changing positions. Svipjoth has decided not to run again for Thane of Regional Affairs (but will be running again as Thane of Roleplay), which TGN is now running for. That leaves TGN's current position as Thane of Embassies open, which Altrio is running for. Michi will be stepping down as our NationStates Delegate, but so far Dawsinian is running to take his place. Arenado has also declined to run for Thane of Werewolf, leaving the position wide-open so far.

    If you are a Citizen and would like to stand for election, check out the topic before nominations close on September 1st.

    Svipjoth Wins Landsraad Chancellor Elections!
    This was a close election where Svipjoth narrowly beat out Arenado and Chanku to become the second Chancellor of Wintreath's new-ish legislature, the Landsraad! Afterwards she posted a thank you note in which she promised to restart the debate over Citizenship requirements, which had been debated earlier in the summer with no firm conclusions.
