Couples Challenge Event

My partner and I came up with a great idea for our couple.  I found a full perm pirate ship in the marketplace for free with firing cannons.  Aprilsue found some great fighting swords with HUD and animations.  So we are going to do the fight scene from the movie when Elizabeth and Will get married. 

I shrunk the ship down so that it would fit on the stage.  I put two pose stands on the ship so that I can move us with the ship.  We are going to raise the ship up through the floor of the stage.  We will then sword fight and fire cannons to the sound clip from the movie.  When Captain Barbosa says, "You may kiss the bride.", we are going to dip kiss.  We will then return to our pose stand and the ship will sink down through the stage.

The day has come.  We are both so excited.  We both arrived at the venue early and checked on the ship.  Whoosh! It is still in place, but a whole lot more props have appeared under the stage over night.  Now it is just a matter of waiting for the event to start.  While we are waiting we cycle through our poses.  I make a quick AO with a walk and pose incase they do a finale.

We are very lucky; no lag.  It is quickly our turn.  We TP to the ship and wait for our count down.  We raise the ship, start our fight, and start firing cannons.  We only shot cannons on the backside of the ship, so that we didn't block the view of the judges with the smoke.  Well guess where those cannon balls flew? You got it; backstage at all the other competitor. LOL.  I briefly saw a couple comments fly by but was concentrating on by sword HUD, the cannon HUD, and the hugging HUD.  It was hard to hear the words "You may kiss the bride"  because the announcer was reading off our outfits, but I recognized the  music.  I sent the hug request and got into position (it took a little bit) and then the swooping kiss.  I saw a couple "awww" come across the chat.  Then we got on our pose stands and the ship smoothly sank into the floor.

We were both very excited and proud of our performance.  Now to wait and see if the judges liked it and if we earned enough points to be in the Top 10.

Stay tuned for a picture.
