Well not quite ... but in this post, I'm here in my role as Novatainia, rather than Kildare. And Novatainia has a long-lived ... custom (for lack of a better word) that struck me as so Yardistan-esque I thought I should share it with you, and, oh great Duke, you can decide if it's worthwhile adopting here. We always love it being used overseas, and I have no doubt you'd do it well.
The custom is that of a DZ, or Destruction Zone, where people can safely destroy things to their hearts content without worrying about civilians, police, or lawsuits. Basically, the stadium provides whatever weapons you want, and you can fight eachother, and destroy things, in a fun, chaotic environment.
The Rules are simple but wise:
Rules:
No WMD´s
No killing people
No shooting into the crowd (Yes, there is a crowd)
No Magic
The Stadium contains whatever you need
And with that simple post has been started a Novatainian thread that's onto it's 45th page and still going strong.

If it's of interest to you, I'd be delighted if you started one, or more, here ...
