Alright I like the multiple thread parties we can sometimes pull off brilliantly.
I was thinking that the King wanted a big shin dig for the addition of King's Landing back into the rotation of Courts, so he wanted a bunch of different parties/Feasts to honor a different Historic era/moment.
Things I was thinking
The First Men-North Obviously
The Andal Invasion- Could be anyone besides the North.
The Rhynomer or whatever- Dorne
The Conquest-Could be multiple
Robert's Rebellion-Stormlands maybe
Rodrick's trial of Seven- Not sure... maybe one of the realms on his side.
The Defeat of the Others BY Saella- Probably the Targs themselves.
Anything I am forgetting?
It would be cool to tie tounry events in as well.

I like this.
Recommend the Vale or the Far Reach hosting the Andal Invasion. The Conquest should be hosted by the Targ Princes, and Saella's defeat of the Others by King Daemon himself. Robert Rebellions is Stormlands. For the Trial of Seven, Perhaps it should be like a pub crawl, with seven stops representing each Kingdom, and then the Big finish would be the Defeat of the Others.
Maybe if each day we could do a different event that would tie in? Not sure how though, maybe via prizes?

Well which events tie into which competition.
The First Men brought horses with them so a Horse race
Andal invasion could be archery with Steel Arrows aimed at Heart Tree Targets
The Rhynomer could be something different maybe a day off from the events, rowing on the river, or some other event along those lines. Maybe canoe races or something silly... or a Woman's only event. I like that better, maybe a woman's joust, or something like that.
The Conquest could be the Joust. We could do one of those challenge type jousts, with a Champion for each King that he defeated. A Vale, North, West, Storm, Riverlands, Reach and the last champion gets selected by the King as the Targaryen representative at the end.
Robert's rebellion could be the grand Melee.
The Trial of Seven would be made of two teams one selected by the King, and the other by his hand of the best warriors in the tourney so far.
And in honor of Queen Saella's Victory a day of Prayer and thanks, followed by a night of drunken revelry and debauchery. Perhaps this actually be the anniversary of that day, which is now a Holiday, like Winterfall Day.

Nice.
The Martells united with Queen Nymeria, so many it could be some kind of joint Women's and Mens team event, cause i don't know if we have enough women for a joust. Like a Relay race or something. (Or the biathlon. Ride a horse, shoot your bow, or something like that.)
I like the Conquest as Joust. I think we should definetely make them select a Queen of Love and Beauty too, so we can use it as an excuse for women to be snippy to each other.
Like the King and Hand picking teams too. It should be done publicly in RP, with the King and Hand taking turns picking, like in Dodgeball. More opportunity for hurt feelings.

I like the idea of teams... but horse and bow is like the first two days of combat.
Is Dancing too lame? It feels it too lame to me, but we could finally reward people for their dancing skill.
How bout like a gauntlet. Hired men with wooden swords are positioned through a maze, and a man and woman team with one sword between them must get through. It would be more RP that way, and would let us also get a chance to introduce any Woman NPCs we have. It would be better I think if the teams are randomized to shake things up. We can roll the winners, but it would be a fun way to allow some RP.

I do like that.
Could we give them one sword, and one shield between them, and then chain them together like in that scene from Gladiator?

Sure... the one sword and shield idea is nice. But I think we should switch genders, cause it is in honor of Nymeria. Give the girls the blade.
