[OOC][PLOT] The Seventh Thread of Planning for Arc 1 - Arrivals

[robkelk]

I was just reading some webcomics and watching some anime, and thought: we really need some intermural athletic competition going on here.  I'm not sure which sport, though.  Baseball is a classic because everyone can play (Ryoko is banned from the outfield, though).  Me and my SI are both fans of beach volleyball -- well, women's beach volleyball.  Tankery is always popular with the ladies.  Ultimate frisbee and ice skating may benefit one residence a bit too much.  Team rowing would benefit another residence too much.  No, Sagara, we are not playing you guys at paintball.  (Though the cosplay barrier might work on him...)

Did somebody say "beach volleyball"? Bring it.

Definitely something for the Obligatory Beach Episode.


Baseball? Westwood has Kaname Chidori and Megumi Morisato, so they've got the heavy hitters (no pun intended) for softball... until such time as somebody inkvades the diamond.

Fencing, anyone? Gomez Addams, Sharoan Li, Umi Ryuuzaki, Mamoru Chiba, Artoria Pendragon, Tenchi Masaki... it's the game with pointy things that everybody can play!

(Tankery might be fun, until Pravda authorizes using tournament ammo while training in neighboring schools' practice fields. Then everybody else gets upset.)


EDIT: Meanwhile, Teletha and Ami will sit over here, playing grandmaster-level chess.
