Event Ideas

This is a thread for us to brainstorm ideas for future Jailbreak events. I've posted a few ideas of my own below, but go ahead and help by adding your own ideas! No idea is too crazy, this is just a fun brainstorm!

Christmas Event
Santa walks around and drops presents (as in Blockheads Ruin Xmas) and will chuck coal at prisoners that get too close. Presents are a gamble, with the potential to explode, do nothing, grant money, take money, give a weapon, give a hat, etc.

Halloween Event
The environment is darkened drastically to be night time. The standard player light is replaced with a flashlight, and the Guards are all disguised as Prisoners. The Warden is dead and the Prisoners have all been slated for execution. The Prisoners must take out the Guards before they are executed by the Guards, but they don't know who is a Guard and who is a Prisoner. The basic idea is to replicate the environment of Murder Mystery.

Alternatively, the server could be themed after witches and skeletons and do something tamer, like giving the Prisoners trick or treat buckets and the Warden candy to give out. Prisoners would then be able to buy things or gamble with candy.

Independence Week (Fourth of July)
Possibilities:
- Replace the sniper rifle with a firework launcher
- Add a sparkler item that serves as a fist replacement

Thanksgiving Event
Each round, one Prisoner can opt to be the turkey. The Warden's goal is to get the turkey killed. If the turkey dies (legitimately), the Guards get extra money for the round. If the turkey survives and all the Guards die (either from a riot or being killed in /LR), then all the Prisoners get extra money for the round. Essentially a reverse communal bounty.

New Year's Eve Party
A special (or revamped) map is used for New Year's, featuring a dance floor in place of the cell room and DJ booth in place of the armory. Dank beats are a necessity.

Star Wars Event
The warden is Darth Vader, the guards are storm troopers, and the prisoners are rebel scum. The guns are replaced with a single blaster and the machete is replaced with a light saber. The warden should also spawn with a light saber because why not. Possibly only Moon can be played during this event.

Day of the Dead/Dia de los Muertos

Prisoners are given swords at the start of the round and have infinite lives. Prisoners spawn at a certain location far from the armory, but with multiple exits. The guards have only one life and must defend the armory at all costs for 3 minutes straight. Dying as a guard will move you to Prisoners. Prisoners gain an upgrade every minute to make it harder for the guards to defend. Prisoners are unable to pick up guns during this event. The max team ratio is increased to 1:2 to keep it fair.

Note that these are all just random ideas for the sake of it, they will not necessarily be turned into actual events on Jailbreak.

Maybe even a schools out event??

anniversary of the day Trump became president.



we could call it "doomsday"

Maybe even a schools out event??

this is a tough one, people get out of school different months

a new years event would be cool too, and maybe some of these events would decorate some of the builds on those days, possibly adding a temporary map for that event

map reskins for holidays would be p cool

for black pride month (or alternatively martin luther king jr. day) prisoners should be black every round and have access to the royal hat (not permanent, just for the day) because THEY WUZ KANGZ N SHEIT

for 9/11 there should be a turban hat or something or a face wrap hat given out

for december 7th (pearl harbor) there should be a straw samurai hat given away and prisoners have a 1% chance of spawning with a machete

that's all i've got so far

I'm adding an idea for a Star Wars themed event, BL already has a lot of content made for that

Edit: Moved the thread to Gen Discussion since others might as well join in the fun

Possibly only Moon can be played during this event.

That's no moon...

for 4/20, prisoners will get the VapeNesh hat and Vapes (because no actual weed), and guards will get the KleboldHair hat (because guards have guns and so did Dylan Klebold and he did Columbine on 4/20 aaaaaa). Pistol, SMG and LMG will be replaced with a Tec9; HMG, Assault rifle, and Battle rifle get replaced with a HiPoint Carbine, the shotgun is given a sawn-off look, the grenades look like pipebombs, and fists get replaced with vapes.

VapeNesh and KleboldHair will be free that day.

for April Fools, a spammy and poorly built and evented version of Gefangnis will be the only map played on that day. It will be called "Gayfagnigs"

for July 17, everyone is given the TheHoff hat and have their names changed to "David Hasselhoff" to celebrate me

I feel like we should have a summer event that lasts for a few days where some cosmetics have a lower price. And some of the other events like seasonal events should have a lower price on some cosmetics too.
