Competition: XenErgy 2: Re-Domination

Running
XenErgy 2: Re-Domination

Background:

In the not-so-distant past, Emperor Xen'Mordin Palpatine, in his divine wisdom, commissioned a beverage to be spread throughout the Empire. That drink was XenErgy; named after and blessed by the Emperor himself! By all accounts, it was the perfect beverage. Its flavors both bold and subtle; complex yet simple. When consumed, one felt both energized and relaxed. It was a wild success throughout the Empire.

Alas, the bottling plant was destroyed when Judecca was destroyed by the Dark Council. What’s more is that the original recipe, shrouded in secrecy, was lost. There was but one being in the entire galaxy that knew the recipe in its entirety; Elincia Rei. Unfortunately, she died in 37 ABY.

In the present now, Empress Rayne Palpatine has received word of the possible extant copy of the original XenErgy recipe. Greatly desirous of the recipe for the legendary beverage, the Empress has demanded the copy be found. XenErgy shall be made again!

Other Information:

XenErgy was a bit of a Scholae Palatinae inside joke from years ago and was never really canon. Now is your opportunity to change that! The results of this competition series will be used to flesh out some of the details of XenErgy and get this thing canonized!

Scoring:

Each first place will earn 4 points, second place will earn 3 points, third place will earn 2 points, and participation will earn 1 point.

Events themselves will have modifiers based on their perceived difficulty/level of effort required:

  • Fiction - 3

  • Graphics/poetry - 2

  • Puzzle/trivia/flash games - 1

Point ties will be broken by comparing the number and position of finishes within the sub-competitions. e.g., If two participants have 30 points and Player A has two first place finishes and Player B has one first place and one second place the tie is broken in favor of Player A.

At the end of the competition, the individual scores for all sub-competitions will be added up, and the top three individuals will earn crescents for the overall competition.
