| |
| − | | |

| |
| − | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': So, next weekend will see a visit from an old friend.... the IRON CHEF TOURNEY
| |

| − | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': how are you murtha?
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''murtha'': oh i'm just wonderful. it's spring and the gods are drunk with all the beer sacrificed
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': lol
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': Okay, so Iron Chef... what is it?
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''murtha'': Iron Chef is a cooking contest. cooks are given given baskets of ingredients and asked to cook simple dishes to certain positive stats. no one will know what they have until they open their baskets
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': So no sneak previews then *grin*
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''murtha'': what would be the fun in that ?
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': true. Okay so can anyone join in?

| |
| − | | |
| − | ''murtha'': of course the dishes will have to have a postive duration
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''murtha'': so very simple receipes will do the trick
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''murtha'': though i've included enough in each basket so that dupilcate receipes should not happen
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': So even i with my limited cookign skills should be able to have a chance of winning?

| |
| − | | |
| − | ''murtha'': the way it will work is..
| |

| |
| − | | |

| |
| − | | |
| − | ''murtha'': each basket will have standard bases and herb. i've put 20 items in each basket

| − | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': *****HELLO EGYPT***
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': As nobody has posted questions i thought i would chat to murtha about her time in egypt....
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': How long have you played?
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''murtha'': hmm i've been here since near the beginning of tale 2. a couple of friends from another game brought me over and I fell in love with the concept and the people here
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': And why cooking?
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''murtha'': well, i only cook by published receipe. But, Egypt is suffering from a bit of apathy and I remembered how much fun Iron Chef was in tale 2 . Plus i have warehouses of herbs so..it just came together
| |
| | | | |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': something proactive and getting people doing stuff ?
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''murtha'': I like to create fun, as those who have seen my playground for sheep know.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''murtha'': and it might be a good way to wake up egypt:)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''murtha'': plus..the events team is awesome, but some of their events require you to play for hours to accomplish anything. This is an hour or two, if that makes any kind of sense
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': Ok a few questions from an audience member... Firstly how many herbs or arent you going to tell?

| − |
| |
| − | ''murtha'': how many herbs? it varies depending on the stats requred. some requirements need more
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': The ringer--- will it give positive or negative attributes? Or is that to be determines by contestant?
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''murtha'': i've chosen ingreds from Orrin's charts and some are there that give no help or hurt to the dish and some are there that will give a more neg effect
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''murtha'': there is only one or two per basket, but i did want to shake things up
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''Khaemwaset'': So the contestant has to eitehr think or experiment?

Welcome to Funtasy's little bit of the wiki. It aims to put the FUN back into Egypt through hosting Player Run Events and allowing the opportunity to role-play! Here we hope to post a forthcoming list of events, interviews, discussions and competitions.
What is Funtasy?
Funtasy is one of ATITD's 'microphones' or chat channels which broadcast to the whole of Egypt. As with all the microphones it is a moderated channel and abuse is not welcome. To join type /join Funtasy
Our aims are to make the dullness of grinding evaporate, to make you smile and more importantly to involve everyone who plays. Getting tired of your friends leaving then tune in and get involved to help banish those sad feelings. angry at the way the telling is going and that no-one is getting involved and helping out? Then do not moan, come and join us for some merriment.
Remember... We cannot have fun without you. !
Our founder was Elfus (who sadly has since left the game) who wanted a channel where people could have their own events (as distinct from dev events and story) that brought some FUN into Egypt. Funtasy has tried in the past to host its own storyline and introduce characters who are separate from the Official eGenesis story line. We also brought you The Male Oprah Show with cory0210.
Occasionally we like to have RANDOM discussions and chats on various subjects. These are just to get people TALKING to one another. Recent RANDOM chats include: 'What is your favourite guitar solo' and 'favourite Beetles track'.
Events and Event Coverage
Upcoming Events
The SRACSO awards.
A light hearted and good humoured celebration of the personalities of the Tale (whether currently active or not). I will be trawling the forums and wiki for ideas. No prizes will be awarded aside from the honour and glory.
Possible award categories include 'Translator of the Telling', 'Best newcomer to ATITD (male and female), 'Best name for a monkey/otter'. Yes some of the awards may be tongue in cheek so please do not be offended.

Competitions
Early in the telling Elfus started a number of competitions (with prizes) based on a number of subjects. Past subjects included Ancient Greek and Egyptian mythology.
We intend to start this again with Stevehotep acting as quizmaster. There should be prizes and we will post what they are going to be here. Please note that it is likely that prizes will be donated by players. We hope that it will be the spirit of taking part rather than the prize that will encourage you.
