THE OFFICAL THREAD: The Ascalon Royal Family Masquerade Ball 09
Burning Freebies
Sounds good, but for some reason my GW doesnt show Texmod for some reason. Judging by those pictures before you worked long and hard on it.
By the way, why did you call the event RAFMB? Not that i hate you for doing it, it just looked a bit odd.

Mr. G
oh and I did, bugger - I normaly call it the RAB to save me typing out ARFMB then explaining it. I suppose they sort of got smashed together somehwere.
Sorry 'bout that

I'm confused over the event time & schedule. The orginal message said the event began at 19:00/7PM GMT and the new schedule has the Grand Ball opening at 8.00. What time does the event start? Should we plan to be fashionably late by an hour?
Let us know. Thank you. (GMT-4)

So sorry!
Im going by my time, forgive me the schedule is listed at 7pm gmt + 1
I will change the original message to 7pm gmt + 1

You spelled my name wrong Daniel ... I'd be hurt if I worried about that type of thing

The Queen shall be in the district all day. If any of you do not have this outpost, it can be found exactly east of Ascalon City and exactly north of Fort Ranik. You can best run there from Frontier Gate, simply run south towards the crater.
Enjoy the party, and Grenth bless.

Oh I'm glad I finally found this thread. I was watching for details on to appear on the wiki event page, but it is still very out of date, so I started to wonder if the ball was cancelled. I think many others might also be thinking this because the link from the official community news page goes straight to the wiki.
At the moment there is no link from the wiki page to this thread on guru either, so it might look to the non-guru users that the event has been abandoned
(unless they spend a few minutes googling like I just did - it wasn't easy to find the link though, so I don't know if others will be that thorough)

I updated the wiki page with an amended time. Added the schedule and theme and finally added the guru link.
Hope that helps!

and for those of you who inquired about the Text Mod Mr. G made for the event, this was Serenity Temple, the night before the Ball. He did an amazing job!!

It was a great event. Thanks for taking those lovely pictures Queen Kitiara, and thanks Daniel for that lovely dance. I didn't think I'd ever see the King of the Snowmen blush. 
I'm looking forward to seeing the videos that were shot. Thanks also to Linsey for dropping by and helping us announce the costume contest winners.

I attented the entire Ball from start to finish, and I still couldn't work out who the winners were of the Male and Female costume competition that was on the schedule between 10:00 and 10:30pm. All I saw at the Ball itself was Daniel calling out that the Male and Female costume competition had closed at exactly 10:30, but nobody would share who the winners were in-game. I asked a few times in local chat but there was no answer. Will there be a list posted somewhere?

Had a great time at the ball, got to attend most of it. Took lots of great pictures, met some fun new people and just had a blast. Thanks once again to Dan, the Queens, Leo and everyone else that helped make it happen.

Couldn't attend - it was starting a 5am Monday morning here. Hope everyone had fun.
Mr. G
Sadly I missed a majority of the event, but I caguth the end and had a great time. Once again cheers to Dan and his many, many selfless helpers for hosting this great event!
cheers!

Each district had a different costume contest:
9.00 - 9:30 - Best and worse dressed costume contest - District 3
10.00 - 10:30 - Male and Female costume contest - District 2
11.00 - 11: 30 - The Couples Ball - District 1
although the winners were announced in District 1, the Male -Female contest took place in District 2.
SCAR hosted District 3, and the pictures and names of the winners of Best/Worst Dressed, have already been posted here. I think on page 3.

Shame I had to miss it.
