Hey guys and girls

Wintersday has just passed, for some it was terrible i.e lag,lack of polar bear ect

But those that attended King Frost's Wintersday Extravagnza, had a blast of a time

Anyway,previous to last wintersday i was what one would call a "scrooge", i horded stuff ect,but i realise now after the event how much i enjoyed giving and bringing the community together for some fun!

I am hooked.

Already i have been gathering gold/items booze ect for next wintersday, and people just keep giving stuff in preperation, and i fear that i will have no room come wintersday,so i figured "HEY WHY NOT HAVE YET ANOTHER FROSTY EVENT?"

seems good to me, i give stuff away and people get stuff, win win right?

i was thinking about Frost gate, in an empty district (korean obv) the setting there is very "santa's grotto", it befits the occasion as daniel frozenwind and frost gate go do they not

its got to the point where i have made the 3 offical trailers for xmas 08

if you would like to help me out ,i would appreciate any donations. the donation thread i created was closed ,a well.

any ideas on what to do? what do you want?


THIS IS THE TRAILER FOR THE EVENT >>>>>>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42-tqe6k0vU <<<<<<<<



Donations are coming in thick and fast!!

Thanks people . I have settled on Frost Gate as the location,please BE AWARE that this is only a mini-event,so it wont be..
"the event of all events come wintersday"
just something to get you interested until then.

The date has been set!

29th february at 9pm[subject to change] G.M.T

if you need to work out what time it is for you please check here:

Only if you use a different district. I feel insulted if you drink booze and party in a Korean district. (Im Korean btw)

yep,help is ALWAYS welcome.

And im making a point this year to announce everything well in advance,that was one downfall of last years KFWE.

for an example this year theres 3 offical trailors and about a months warning XD

but for the "touch of frost" pun intended, im scoping out the interest for an event like this before i commit to hosting it

I'm Japamerikoreuropean and I will be offended if your event is not held in all the districts of my ethnicity.

Good idea. Beacon's Perch may be a fun place due to the stairs as well as the availability of Dwarven Ale from the merchant.

This sounds fun. Count me in. I like player-hosted events =D

Any reasonable time for me constitutes me not being in class (which is after 2something on Fridays, in Eastern time). Unless I failed at the time converter, where you have it now sounds good to me.
