Halloween is one of the best holidays on the gaming calendar and this year Split Infinity’s DJs are pushing the boat out with special editions of some of its shows. “The Guild Meeting” is being dressed up on Sunday 31st October as Halloween Happy Hour where we’ll be forgoing the usual news and games to give away ~1500K’s worth of prizes and gifts within 2 hours! Of course you need to work a little for them so we’re putting on a quiz and costume competition for the intellects and creative souls amongst you.
The main event though is the arrival of the Mad King accompanied by his bad jokes and “Mad King says”. Even if you’re not aiming for any of the big prizes of the night, come join in the fun - you may just get an extra surprise to take away with you. For the entire event, Tasha will be on air on Split Infinity Radio playing a combination of themed music and your requests as well as talking to the other hosts of the event - DJ Villan from Split Infinity and Relics Of Orr community members Zxizaraxii and Mad Falcon.
The party starts at 6pm UTC (6pm GMT, 2pm EST Click here for more) on Sunday 31st October in Lions Arch International District 4 and runs for 2 hours. We hope to see you there!

General Knowledge Quiz
There will be 10 questions on a number of topics, including math, geography, history, science and Guild Wars lore. Questions will be asked on trade chat, and players should answer on local chat. Spelling is not important as long as it is understandable.
A prize and point is awarded to the player who answers quickest with the correct answer. The player with the most points at the end of the 10 questions will be awarded the top prize of an undedicated Miniature Mad King Thorn. If more than 1 player has the most points, there will be a tiebreaker question.
Costume Competitions
We’re looking for the best fancy dress costumes in all of Tyria so go nuts with your armor choices and come up with your own unique combination. No costumes or festival headpieces please - we want to make this available to everyone no matter how long they’ve been playing! There’s a prize for the best costumed individual (Armbrace) and for the best costumed couple ( 2 lots of 16 Rubies and 16 Sapphires), as well as a number of smaller prizes for victors in other undisclosed categories.
Edit: No tonics either!
Judges: Zxizaraxii, Mad Falcon, Villan
Want to get involved?
Fantastic! You can get involved one of two ways. We’re looking for people to either donate their excess items (alcohol, sugar, fireworks and unded minis are ideal but we’ll take almost anything), or their time to the event. We’ll need a few extra hands to make sure the party keeps rocking on the night.
If you’d like to give your time, or aren’t sure if we’ll accept your items, you can contact us by email at tasha<at>siradio.fm . You can also send me a pm here on Guru. Contact Tasha Darke in game to give donations directly.
