The Red March is off to a great start, much thanks to Mayune for spearheading this initiative. The Rum ‘n Rumble was a blast, and the turnout was excellent. Go Red March!
PvP
I like the ideas for a tournament or something involving the open Arenas, both could be a lot of fun. (And that arena in Nagrands seems deserted most of the time.)
I might also be fun to schedule a “War Machine” training session up in Wintergrasp. The area seems largely deserted most of the time, and it’d be a neat way to introduce characters and players alike to the Siege Engines.
PvE
Scavenger hunts are great, and I’d love to learn more about GHI and using it for quests or puzzles. Those could make for some really memorable events. Foot / Relay Races are also a classic event type, and one could spice it up as a triathlon theme, with running, flying and swimming involved.
Some of the things that are nice about both scavenger hunts and relay races is you’ve got an excuse to break a large crowd up into smaller groups. In that respect it’d be neat to select group makeup at random, so that folks might get to interact with new faces.
One thing I would love to see is an actual Red March. It could be an escort quest of sorts, or it could simply be a fundraiser. The length of the march probably isn’t as important as the setting. We spend so much of our time flying (or worse, being summoned) to places, that I think it’d be neat to have a walk just to enjoy some of the awesome scenery.
Other ideas might include a IC healer’s seminar, river boat races in Thousand Needles, fishing or low level gathering tournament, tradeskill faire, or even a round-robin story event.
