milythael Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 The man seemed to materialize out of the shadows of the big top. Seeing so many together, challenging themselves with feats of dexterity and manipulation, he made a proposition. The challenge: Present a 60+ second video of your current juggling talent at the beginning of the challenge.Practice for at least 5 minutes, 5 times a week. (Practicing for 25 minutes counts as one time, but practicing 15 minutes twice in a day counts as 2.)Present a 120+ second video of your new juggling talent at the end of the challenge. Successfully complete the challenge and you earn the title of Jester of 2013. If there is enough interest at the end, we can vote on who has the most progress from start to finish for King Jester of 2013. You can log your progress here. (Note: Any form of juggling is allowed, including contact juggling.) 1 Quote Milythael Assassin Current Activity: Milythael Acts Like an Assassin Past Activity: Spoiler Challenges: Intro, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 12 PVPs: Demon Slaying, HOoRAY, Meditation, Poses, Juggling 30/30 Squat Link to comment
Jittersthe.Clown Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 !!! Question, you noted any form of juggling, are you considering props in this, i.e. crystal/devil sticks, diabolos, or cigar boxes? Either way, I'm in.

scoobydrew0 Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 Phone won't let me do fun gifs...but I am in.I have always been jealous of my friend who could just juggle random things while in lines for cons. Don't expect to be the best but as long as I can handle acouple cell phones I will take it lol. Quote Link to comment
Mad Hatter Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 I want a title! Though my skills don't even warrant a one minute video... I can juggle 3 balls - really badly! Quote Link to comment
Urzie Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Count me in! I'm really excited about waking up my old juggling skills. It must be somewhere between 10 and 15 years since I juggled on a regular basis. Quote #3 - #4 - #5 - #6 - #7 - currentJuggling PvP, Squat PvP, HOoRAY Link to comment
Jittersthe.Clown Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Just putting this out there, if a big nerd meet up happens, we are going to have a juggling area. Objects will be thrown and caught repeatedly. I am so happy so many of us juggle.

OrangeJorwell Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 I'm in. I haven't juggled consistently since I first learned how to do it like 7 years ago. I'll record a video at some point and put it on here. I also plan on working on my contact juggling, too. It's something I've wanted to learn for a long time now and never put in the time.

Bekah Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 I get talked into writing and juggling in the same challenge...where does it end? (with me looking like a crazed lunatic atop a unicycle juggling monkeys while using speech to text software to write my 56th NYT bestselling novel!) So yeah maybe while I am at work tomorrow, I will have the opportunity to video my juggling. and I have the overall plot for my novel figured out finally Quote Druid Assassin Halfling Druid Level 16, Current Quest: Bekah Returns Spoiler Fitbit Facebook Your life does not get better by chance.

Devyn Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 What if you can't juggle at all? Like you have trouble catching one thing at a time? Quote Level 17 Half Kender Assassin XP 1700 Link to comment
milythael Posted November 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 This challenge isn't about being a good juggler or the best juggler. It is about consistency, showing where you are, and where you get to. I'm quite fine with 60 seconds of tossing a single ball or plastic bag or scarf or whatever, and never managing to catch it once. Show us where you are. Practice most days. Show us where you get to. I welcome everyone from people who have never tossed a ball from one hand to the other to master jugglers learning a new skill. 1 Quote Milythael Assassin Current Activity: Milythael Acts Like an Assassin Past Activity: Spoiler Challenges: Intro, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 12 PVPs: Demon Slaying, HOoRAY, Meditation, Poses, Juggling 30/30 Squat Link to comment
Jittersthe.Clown Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 ...so, 60 seconds for me turned into a few videos. I'm posting my official 60 second video first. The rest are just me having fun. I'm noticing that I need to clean up my garage.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZ1Mj1oYLn4&feature=youtu.be I need to work on club tricks. The ring I dropped is horribly deformed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y51D4iiA7rw&feature=youtu.be I love to Diabolo. This is neither my tricked out performance one, nor my usual pair of sticks, so I am surprised this turned out as well as it did.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaQQSZGEwu8&feature=youtu.be Surprisingly, the tip was not chipped, dinged or broken from the falling on the cement. And I didn't lose a limb, so I'm pretty happy about that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaQQSZGEwu8&feature=youtu.be Again, the first is my challenge video. I just couldn't help myself with the others. 1 Quote Level 2 Warforged Druid STR: 2, DEX: 1, STA: 3, CON: 3, WIS: 2, CHA: 3 "If these people tell this story to their children as they sleep; then maybe someday they'll see a hero is just a man who knows he is free."

Jittersthe.Clown Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Those are great videos! I can't wait to watch everyone get better here. I haven't juggled in a few months (parade season ended in early Sept), so to get back everyday is going to be a lot of fun. And this weekend I can juggle on the North Shore. I may take video.Where are the rest of the videos everyone?
