Olympus Field Trips and the Labyrinth?

Well, I was doing some research on what the forum was like before now, and I discovered that they had field trips to Mount Olympus almost every month or so. I was thinking about what it would be like to start them up again, because that section of the forum is hardly ever used. Of course, this is the admins decision, but I would like to know what the members think as well. Since it's a field trip, there has tp be some sole purpose of being there. Maybe an Olympian party? Or maybe Cronus crashes it, and we have another battle just like in the battlefield? I don't know, but go ahead and post what you think about this idea. It just doesn't seem right to me to leave something unused, but like I said, that's up to the admins.

[IDEA FOR THE LABYRINTH IS POSTED BELOW.]

Nah, I was just looking through some old topics that I found in some of the members a long time ago. Some still aren't deleted from the site, so I guess I got lucky with that one. xD Yeah, I'm willing to bring Olympus alive again, because it seems pretty much dead. That's not a good thing since the gods are there, but that's Greek mythology.

True. xD Well, if we can't be invaded on Olympus, how about something in the Labrynth? I did a little research on the labrynth, and I read that the minotuar was imprisoned there. Every nine years, Athens would send over seven boys and seven girls to Crete to be eaten by the minotuar. So I was thinking, how about Camp Half-Blood does that? It doesn't have to be a certain number of campers, it could be all of them. We could hold this maybe every three months or something like that, and have a "training session" in the arena. The training session would kind of give "experience" to your character for the minotuar battle, and that experience could be used for your "health" and "attack power." Say someone has 500 experience for a charrie, they go ahead and face the minotuar with the campers. They attack the minotuar with their primary weapon. -5 experience. The minotuar attackes them, -10 experience.

Now say that charrie wants to use a power that was inherited from their divine parent, there would probably have to be -20 experience for that. Anyway, the experience would be earned through the training session just by being there, and how much that character has learned. Kinda get it? Seeing as I went completly off topic, I'll add this to the title also. xD

Or it could be monthly, just so everyone gets a shot. There doesn't have to be an end to the labrynth thing either, it could just be on going for just some roleplaying fun. But whatever, they're just ideas. xD

Maybe the minotaur idea, but if somebody wants a character to die, they could go too.

The Athena children know alot about Greek myths, so they would know to do what Theseus did, tie a rope to the door, then follow it on the way out. Characters can die, but they don't have to, and they can also come back injured. Wish, the gods' children are always finding ways to prove themselves worthy to their parents. And as quoted by Annabeth in "The Lightning Thief" "Do you know how many campers have wanted to fight the minotuar?" Well, I guess we have our purpose for being in the labrynth right there in that quote.

This is a great idea.I'd love to see the field trips.The Labyrinth idea is pretty good too.

Cool idea!


As a reply to your very first post Eagle. We never actually did a trip to Olympus Inan might've but when got here we didn't.

I'm sorry to hear that, Katie. xP But if the Olympus Trips idea does get accepted, maybe it would be the very first trip for this forum. Who knows? As for the Labrynth idea, I think it would be for good use. Instead of just waiting for the normal battles, we could have a little minotuar fight in the labrynth. We don't have to use the "experience" thing that I mentioned earlier, and just use the same regulation as the battlefield, but I would like these fights to be different. Maybe an admin roleplay as the minotuar? I don't know, we'll have to wait and see if these ideas get accepted.

Yeah, I agree. I actually like it better than my whole "experience" idea. xD

I answered that on the previous page, Wish. (:

It's alright. xD

i think th e labyrinth thing is a good idea and maybe luke could recruit people for the titan army(secretly) and they would follow him in the labyrinth or something like that? idk i just really want to be evil for some reason.
