The only way for us to overthrow the tyrannical Mayor of Wassailtown is by doing good deeds! Every good deed done by the children (and adults) will earn coins to be placed on the scale to prove that we have earned more than the bribe that put him there.
Food Drive
Benefiting The Food Bank of Waterloo Region Cash donations preferred.
Schedule10 am: Royal Challenge 11 am (if time permits): So that the children can get the toys, fighters must defeat the Burgermaester in combat. Upon defeating the Burgermaester, they they become the Burgermaester. Who will get bragging rights for defeating the Burgermaester the most times?
1 pm: Toys for Tots: The traditional double (if you donate one toy) or triple (if you donate two) elimination tournament. |
Here’s how the game will be played!
The Burgermeister Meisterburger has bribed his way into becoming Mayor of Wassailtown and he has decreed that THERE WILL BE NO TOYS !
We cannot let all of us go through the holidays without toys; so we MUST overthrow him and return the toys to us! We have an offer that if we can raise MORE coins than the bribe then we can kick the Burgermeister Meisterburger out of office. We have a scale set up to gauge our progress throughout the day
Here’s how the game will be played!
1) Bring a donation for the Food Bank of Waterloo. One item of food earns a coin, $1 cash earns 2 coins
2) Do something off the Good deeds list. Once you have, see our elves Dawn and Alice to get your coin.
3) Their Majesties, Highnesses, and Excellencies will be on the look out for good deeds and other worthy acts and reward accordingly
4) Bring a Toy for Toys for Tots. (shhhh don’t tell the Burgermeister, he thinks that we are collecting them for him to burn but in fact they will be taken to The Stuff The Warrior Van Toy Drive. Each toy will earn 3 coins in addition to your lives in the tournament.
5)Feeling lucky? Challenge the Burgermeister to a game of chance. He has some dice games available for your enjoyment. Winning earns a coin. Losing you go to the dungeon!
The Burgermeister will put anyone in jail caught with a toy or that loses when they gamble against him. (Remember the Burgermeister is now Mayor and he can add or subtract any other way to send people to the dungeon he wishes)
You get out of jail in a few ways.
1) Any non fighter that wishes to donate to Toys for Tots earns them 2 coins and gets one person out of dungeon
2) Anyone may give our elves back a coin to release themselves or anyone else out of the dungeon
3) Don’t tell them that I told you, but the dungeon isn’t that secure you could always break out when no one is looking or plan a jail break for a friend.
