Land Before Time Olympics?

So, yeah... I was watching the Beijing Olympic opening ceremony, and I had a thought. What if the LBT world had Olympics? Y'know, stuff like running, games, things like that. Anyone else besides me think that this might be a fun RP? OC's would be allowed!

Hmm yea. But you should think of a gameschedule and such and different sports for different types of dinosaurs

Likely it would have some of the same events, swimming stuff, some 4 footed running stuff and 2 footed running. Maybe a log running thing, and some other stuff for some folks. Likely with most of the events some would not be able to compete, and how would it be decided who would win each event?

Hello:
And dinosaurs like Threehorns and similars can also have or suggest games like who can pull logs or rocks some distance in the lowest time, or maybe Flyers could use a variant of Kor's idea of the race with logs.

Its quite an interesting idea, by dividing the species for teams. Not to case any rivalry, though.

Dividing the species for teams? Do you mean like each team has to have one flyer, one swimmer, one four-legged large dino, one two legged medium dino? I think that's a pretty neat idea.

Explorer · **Reply #6 on:** August 09, 2008, 10:35:34 AM

Yes, either that or each team having a single species forming it. Like, one only formed by longnecks, etc.

Drake · **Reply #7 on:** August 09, 2008, 10:38:41 AM

That might make things diffcult for the longneck team if there are any games that involve flying...

Explorer · **Reply #8 on:** August 09, 2008, 10:47:24 AM

But its an overall good idea. You have my support.

Kor · **Reply #9 on:** August 09, 2008, 12:52:11 PM

It makes sense to have teams divided up by species or close related species. Even within certain events that most could do. Swimmers would outdo non swimmers likely so they may have a separate event like a swimming event for swimmers, and one for non swimmers who know how to swim, the same for other things like running, dragging things, pushing things. Also size & age may play a part in dividing up teams.

Hmmm. Maybe other valleys gather at one place after multiple cold times and they compete as though they were countries. Like in the Triwizard Tournament in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. I'm lbt/cty_lover and I approve this RP.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #11 on:** August 09, 2008, 04:37:28 PM

Awesome Ideas everyone! I think that it would be awesome to have teams from other areas, or wanderers come to the Valley, and I like the way that the teams would be set up! Anyone want to start this party up?

Explorer · **Reply #12 on:** August 09, 2008, 04:44:16 PM

I would like to cooperate.
Count me in!

Drake · **Reply #13 on:** August 10, 2008, 01:41:47 AM

I guess I'm in, though in all of my previous RP experiences I was using characters that I had created myself.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #14 on:** August 10, 2008, 01:45:21 AM

That's just fine! We'll need plenty of new faces to the Valley to make this fun!

Drake · **Reply #15 on:** August 10, 2008, 02:11:57 AM

Yeah, well, the other problem is that I only have one LBT character and I haven't really put too much thought into the character as of yet. I don't even have a name for her yet. Though it often takes me a while to name my creations.

Mumbling · **Reply #16 on:** August 10, 2008, 03:36:40 AM

Heh, I'd like to join in with Shera. :^.^:

LBTFan13 · **Reply #17 on:** August 10, 2008, 12:36:23 PM

That sounds like a really fun idea. I would definitely enter Zaine in the fun!

kjeldo · **Reply #18 on:** August 10, 2008, 02:47:02 PM

i'm in! just give me a minor role!

Kor · **Reply #19 on:** August 10, 2008, 11:11:17 PM

Looks like quite a few are interested. You have any ideas you'd like to be in the rp, or ideas you prefer to not be in the rp?
