I will personally hold two events, but I strongly encourage you to hold your own events!
Event 1 - Hemperor Everywhere!
This event is an all day event. If I find you dressed up like hemperor, I will give you a large gold reward. I will be going to random places unannounced searching for those dressed in the national outfit of Canada: red bandanna, red surcoat, white dress shirt, and red leather thigh boots. Don't cover it up in armor. Let us see your Canadian pride!(Otherwise, dress how you like.) I will frequent higher traffic areas as well as a few low traffics throughout the day, so just get dressed up and go about your normal UO business.
Event 2 - You Can't Handle the Truth!
I will select a special location in which to have this event later in the day, most likely at 10pm EST. Gates will be sent to WBB at the selected time from the selected location. The event will be simple. Each participant will be asked to stand before others and, in the style of hemperor, recount a bizarre conspiracy theory. Theories will be judged on three grounds:
1. Paranoia - Masons have spiked our drinking water with caffeine so that we'll type just a little faster so they can have a bigger pool of efficient typists from which to hire their next secretary.
2. Unfalsifiability - That's just what they want you to believe!
3. Style! - I recommend you go so far as to set up a razor macro to tell your story at a readable but not obnoxiously slow pace!
The winner and a runner up, decided by me and perhaps some special guest judges, will each be awarded a large gold prize plus perhaps some fancy rares!
Event 3 - Pin the Tail on the Hemperor! (ran by Blackfoot)
Event 4 - KING OF GY!BlackFoot wrote:Archery contest!
This event will be taking place on Wednesday October 27th at 5:15 PM EST.
Thats right.. it will be taking place on International Hemperor Day.
What does this mean?
Only participants dressed in traditional IHD clothing will be able to participate.
(Clothing will be provided)
During this contest the only things a player can use are player crafted regular bows and arrows.
They will be provided for you but you can bring your own.
Archers will be set into 1v1 heats, elimination style.
The first archer to kill their target wins the heat. (Targets will be provided from the local prison, dressed in IHD clothing)
The contest will go until there is only one archer remaining, and zero prisoners of course.
There is no entry fee.
Prizes - TBA
Once again we will be accepting any donations players have as prizes for this event.
Send me a pm in irc or on the forums

October 27th. Wednesday. Be the only person standing on the dock visible and alive for 12 seconds after 7pm eastern and win a small house deed.
This event is now a part of IHD. If you win and are dressed as Hemporer you win double the prize. (2 house deeds)
Winning area is on the actual docks past the entrance stairs.
I will be ressing in the nearby tower and vendors will be there to help you get back onto the docks and in action.
If someone would like to run a vendor there during the event, please let me know. I am mainly looking for a blacksmith.
