We received this letter today about an upcoming event and rather than report something wrong, I copied the letter over for all to view. If you happen to sign up, come back and let us know!
I am writing to you about an event taking part in SWG this coming Saturday the 4th October, I do not know if this is the kind of news you like to get, but seeing the game is due for release in the UK soon, I thought a really great event previewed like this will show those thinking of buying this RPG just how much you can do.
The Imperial guild ShadowKnights is holding the first SWG pageant in Theed Theatre on Naboo, called Miss SWG, hosted by myself Dawn Song, and IsisFainne. Over the past few weeks I have been advertising this event to the max, we now have 50 contestants 10 Judges and over 4 million in the prize fund for the winners, and we have a band to play, and radio coverage, and intend shooting fireworks at the conclusion.
I'm told that it's talked about in all cantinas, I was even told of a rebel who killed an imp, and then told them "you should enter that Miss SWG pageant". I've done all I can to make this one of the first truly big events, using role playing in this RPG, And would love for the event to be covered and reported on in some way.
We will be holding this event in 3 stages, firstly all our contestants will parade in their evening wear, they will tell their names, and which planet they come from, after a small break for us to acknowledge our sponsors, and listen to the hired band, they will then parade in casual wear, and in this stage be allowed to show what talents they have, be it dancing, playing music, or charming the judges with a witty joke. Lastly is stage 3 where each contestant parades in their beachwear, after these 3 stages, the judges will announce the 2nd runner up, 1st runner up, and winner, we will also be giving out a prize for Miss Congeniality, which will be voted for by the contestants themselves.
I know you get preview copies of all games due for release, and could therefore attend this event if you so chose, and I think it would be a great preview to show new potential customers, as it will show such a diverse side of the game, anyone can show the faction side of SWG, and talk about the combat, but previewing this event will show people the role playing side, it will show them the theatres, how bands work, it will show them what other professions can do, such as tailors and the gorgeous outfits they can make, dancers, and how erotically they can
dance, musicians and the fun instruments there are to learn, ...how much fun you can have role playing, and taking part in galaxy wide events.
If you cannot attend and report on this event, maybe you could point me in the direction of somebody else that could, be it from another website dedicated to SWG, or a pc game magazine, any help would be gratefully received.
I look forward to hearing from you whatever your decision
Please give this some consideration
Many thanks

Event taking place at Theed Theatre Naboo, time 9pm GMT, 4pm EST, 1pm PST
