Indeed, it seems a lot of the community is doing just that for donations. I still need so much more, so really, this is a great idea and would help more then you can imagine.

Current alcohol counts are approx 3,000 strong

I need around 20-30k for the event. Sooo, with the event coming in a little over a month, things are turning out great so far!

The LaZy senior officers and guild managers will be my co-leaders as I can quickly communicate with them via ventrilo and alliance chat.

Nw how do you want to do things? live on air on the station? or in local chat? or shall we discuss this another time?

I think we should probably discuss that a bit closer to the event. If you guys are planning on attending, please post in this thread. It will give me a concept of districts to plan for. THanks.

I am quitting Guild Wars due to some family issues. Oktoberfest is still on, but will now be hosted and run by LaZy. They have put a lot of effort into this event, and it is will still be a blast. I still encourage everyone to attend and enjoy themselves.

How about some grand Norn tales told around the fire like the days of old as a sideline event?

*cough* I know someone who tells great Norn stories . . . *cough*

Storytelling by the fire at Gunnar's Hold? You bet!

I look forward to the Email and yeah, having a story live on air would be pretty cool too

Especially as the time slot for this would actually sit after the Saturday night comedy show with Movian aswell, so even better

Major Costume Contest Update

The costume contest can happen whenever you want. That is because YOU will be taking screen shots of your character and sending them to [email protected] where they will be judged by our panel of judges. This is because the event will spread across districts and the judges will be gearing up for The event and not have time to judge during it.

As such Please Let Everyone Know that this is happening. And remember to get your entries in

Your not going to get a big crowd due to the fact your holding this in GWEN, you would get alot more people if you held it in prophecies. the henge of denravi would have been a good spot, i suppose its too late now anyway. Goodluck with it guys.

You will truly be missed, Connor

You have done so much for the community. I hope you come back at some point. If not, then maybe in another lifetime

Just 12 short days until the event! I believe I might login for a short time to join in at least a few festivities. LaZy deserves a big round of applause for doing such a great job taking over. 3 Cheers I say!

Skretth, I'm annoyed. I emailed the guild with a lengthy donation list over four days ago, with no response. You know my IGN if you want to get hold of me, though I'm not on that often anymore.

Good to see this thing pulling through.

Although I really disslike it being called the Oktoberfest (from a person who lives about half an hours trainride away from the real thing) seeing as it is no where near the real date of the Oktoberfest in Munich (22 Sept. - 07 Okt. 2007).

But other that that it looks like a great event. Alcohol in masses, much like the overpriced original (drink till you colapse and get carted away in the special oxygen transports)... Eat till you throw up and party untill you are broke
