I need some ideas for a goblin festival. The Pc will get rewarded for competing in each event depending on how well they do.
So I have a few contest ideas already and throw them out to get things started.
Frog eating contest-- this contest is not about who can eat the most, its more about keeping the 3 you eat down. You basically have to eat the colored frogs in the correct order
Ride Bewy-- it's a rodeo style contest where the PC rides a giant frog.
Thank you for your time I will update later with more. Feel free to make your own rewards for your own contests anything from items, Animals, or feats/traits.
It's been awhile and no replys so far I said I would update so guess I will dig this up and post a few more examples.
Russhy Water-- has to swim up stream and grab a rope it's 4 steps if you fail by a certain amount it takes you back to previous step if you go below the 1st one you fall down a waterfall taking damage. Haven't come up with a reward for this contest feel free to suggest some.
High platform-- Pc is standing on a 4 square platform each round you have to doge multable obstacles after each round 1 square vanishes making it more difficult. ~~unique~~
After the 4th round a Suprise round a giant fly swoops by if the player doges it they are rewarded with a trait.
Rope swing-- Pc has to swing from vine to vine but it's not that simple some vines are covered in oil so be careful
Frog Stomp-- it's like dance dance revolution but with cute little frogs
Hope to hear from someone soon. Any idea/advice are welcome.

Well, there're always variations on Killgull (wherein you catch a gull and tie a string to its leg, then throw rocks at it; the winner gets the meat and the scraps are used to attract more gulls).
Hide/seek variant where three players are stalking each other, and you win by either pinning one of them or catching the other two in a scuffle. Could play off of natural goblin stealth.
Something about fire!
Like, like burning down a hay stack, or, or setting a dog on fire, or, or setting the kennels on fire, or, or setting the dogs on fire and opening the kennels and chasing the burning dogs through the festival and burning every thing down!!!!!!
I like these ideas the thought never crossed my mind to have a event based on stealth. I'm going to use all the ideas above. Even the fire idea because hey goblins hate dogs so that really fits.
To make it more organized the dogs will be in kennels now cover the dogs in oil poke them a few times with a sharp stick and let them lose in a large inclosed area goblins have to chase the dogs with torches and light them on fire. If you light a dog on fire and your dog runs into another dog lighting that one on fire both count towards your score.
Thanks so far for the ideas I look forward to more.
Glad to be of service! :P
Just make sure that A LOT of goblins get caught up in between. ;)
The only thing that's almost as fun as burning dogs is fellow golbins get hurt for being stupid. :D
Wasp-Catcher - Goblins throw wasp or hornet nests at each other, whoever has the fewest stings wins.
Bark-Stripper - Goblins circle a treant, or some other tree-type creature, and rush forward to strip a piece of bark off of it. Whoever gets the biggest strip, and survives, wins.
Knife-Biter - Goblins throw knives, axes, and other pointy objects at each other and try to catch them with their teeth. Whoever has the most teeth at the end wins.
Pull-the-Tail - Similar to Bark-Stripper, Pull-the-Tail is only for the bravest of goblins. The goblins find a horse (a pony is acceptable, so long as the goblins are in agreement it is a terrifying hell-beast) and dare each other to pull its tail. Most goblins only come within a few yards of it before scampering away, frightened by a snort or a whinny. There are legends told of a goblin hero who once pulled a horse tale completely off the animal and other tales that the same goblin is still playing a game of Pull-the-Tale, being dragged all across the world, his green hand firmly locked on the creatures hair.
There are other, less frightening, derivatives of Pull-the-Tale that replace the horse with a boar, lizardfolk, or dragon.
Grand melee.. toss a jumble of Gobbos in a small room/arena and whoever comes out conscious wins.
Football. The gobbos have to get a human foot from one end of a field to the other.
Shiny finder. The gobbos get loosed upon a heap of junk and trinkets. Bet shiny object wins. Of course it's perfectly expected that if someone has a shinier shiny object than yours, you would take it...
Stab the kidney. Whoever is able to stab the highest ranking gobbo wins. Of course that gobbo might have some ideas what happens to you after but, hey.. you won!
Find the baby. Gobbos unleashed on an unsuspecting town and told to kidnap a child each. fastest to return wins. Of course no one said it had to be alive did they? Oh yeah.. it has to be alive. Try again.
hamstring the traveler. on a busy rode, the gobbo that puts the most travelers on their butts wins.
Also there's a Paizo published module called "We Be Goblins" that starts off with some Goblin games that you might be able to use for this purpose. Don't know if you've cracked that open or not but it could be worth a peek.

I got lucky and was able to play it at a local con I but I can't seem to recall what events there where anyone know where I can find it online?
