I could use some judges to help with the race course.
I also hope all of you will come to the Halloween party, even if you aren't interested in racing!
I have put together some Halloween ABC songs and could use help testing them. You can download my set at:

Here's an update on the Wraith Race --
What do we need?
* Judge volunteers - I will need 3 judges. 4 would be nice, as I would love to have back-up at the finish line. The lag-beast rarely takes two victims at once.
* Bookie - If someone is willing to act as bookie and take people's bets, I'll give away more prizes. As bookie, people /tell you the name of the ONE rider they think will win. After the race, all the names of people who guessed correctly go into a hat. You pick one randomly.
* Musicians - I have Halloween music that takes up to 7 musicians. You can download it at http://www.roll3d6.com/abc/KiralynnsMusic.zip - look in the Halloween sub-folder. Also, feel free to bring your own spooky songs!
* Reporters - I would love to see some high-resolution screenshots of the events. It would be especially nice to have a screenshot of each costume.
* Voters - The costume contest winners are determined by audience vote. I need lots of people in the audience!
* People who want Perlino steeds. We'll have some of these as door prizes. Most Banders already have one, but if you don't, there's a good chance you can win one at this event. Between door and event prizes, I'll be giving away at least a dozen. I also have some cloaks, small amounts of Turbine Points, and other cool stuff!
What about the race course?
* It has been mapped out. I will be editing the screenshots tomorrow.
* I won't post it until race day.
* It may involve laps.
* It is a steeplechase course. Expect jumps, cliffs, water-crossings and other obstacles.
* The track will run entirely clockwise.

For potential musicians, there's a version of "Frankenstein" (Edgar Winter Group) in Lindale which can be cut/pasted into abc (an earlier version is in the BBB download).
Also, 7-Macabre from the LMB zip has a spooky feel to it.

Bring your torches, it's time for the Wraith Race!
Oh no, the torch is going out!
Coming to the party? I would love to share your screenshots and perspective on the Windy Acres Ranch web site! Write a report about the event or post an amazing screenshot, and I'll enter you in a drawing for 750 Turbine Points!
