The Acts

1. Time to get into costume! Gather Mene avatars from yourself and at least 1 of your team members in which you\they are wearing a costume to perform in. You and they must write 300 words each as to why you\they chose that costume and what it lends to your\their performance. Post the avatars and quoted explanations all at once.

2. Have 1 member of your team draw 3 comic panels that convey their part in planning and preparing your street circus. You must draw 3 comic panels, as well. It does not matter how they are drawn (stick figures are fine), or what they’re drawn with. Put the comic panels together in the manner that you think is best, and submit the completed comic.

As well as the panels, you and your team member must write a 300 word description each of why you\they think your\their role in planning will make your team’s street circus a success.

3. You and 1 other team member must sign your\their autograph for fans. For this Act, go around the Menewsha boards and “autograph” 1 item from 5 members’ avatars. Submit both an image of the item and of the avatar so that we can see them wearing it, as well as the usernames of the people you got the item from. You can not autograph your own avatar or an avatar of any of your team members. You can not both autograph for the same avatar. Each item must be different from the other, so I don’t want to see more than 1 Elegant Gold Pocketwatch, for example.

But wait! There’s more. These are the first autographs you and your team member have ever signed, and in your excitement you both write more than just a simple phrase. Each autograph must be 60 words in length.

4. Opening night was a hit, and you made the front page of the newspaper! Write an article by a critic praising the show. The article must be at least 300 words in length and include 2 quotes from you and 2 from another member of your team. Have your team member draw 3 images to accompany the article and submit the images and article in the same post.

Done that? Good. Reverse roles with your team member, only your team member has to write an article by a critic who disliked the show. Other than that, follow the above requirements.

5. Your team is being interviewed on TV! Write up a 300 word interview in which you ask a member of your team 5 questions. Each question must be different from the next. Send the interview to your team member and get their responses. Have your team member do the same for you. Submit both of the interviews and you and your team member’s responses.


BONUS

Everyone knows that word-of-mouth is a surprisingly effective way of getting news out… or in this case, word-of-post. That’s right. You’re going to start a blog for your team.

Have your team decide on 1 person from the team who will create and maintain the blog. You may have more than 1 person maintaining the blog if you choose (in fact, I would advise this). You can use any blog platform (ex. Blogger, Wordpress.com, etc).
Include the name of your team in the blog’s title.

Then, once every half-hour, post on the blog about what’s going on with your street circus (fictional or real events, or both!). Each post must be at least 200 words long. You will not get extra money for longer posts.
Each post must include an image that relates to the post.

You do not have to post every single half-hour. You must have at least 4 blog posts to get money, and you will receive bonus money for every extra post. However, you will LOSE money if you post more than once in a half-hour.

4 required posts: $200
Each extra post: $50
Penalty for posting more than once in a half-hour: -$70

But wait, there’s more! If you are lucky (perhaps not the right word to use in this case), you will receive a humor bonus! A bonus-bonus? Anyway, criteria below:

Made me smile: $20
Made me chuckle: $40
Outright loling: $60

So, if you want those bonus-bonuses, you might want to collaborate with your team mates about what exactly to write.

Use the second Bonus submission form each time you post in your blog so I know to go read it.
