13th sounds pretty dandy, I'll be there. Will y'all announce the winners in the thread or in-game?

I will assume both ... after announcing them in game (or on here) it all is down to handing out the prizes, which mostly are ingame items, for which the party is most suited given the winner can come ... else it's a matter of meeting these people on an appointment made by PM ... obviously the party is more fun, because you will also be cheered on while you receive your prize

I'm not sure if I will make the party. My schedule is always iffy. Can someone pick up my prize donation? I'm giving 50k and two Candysmith minis.

No replies here too, it always takes some time before we get the notice.
iirc you get a mail with which names to add to your friendslist and you have to give three dates (which suit you best) for the transfer of the mini's.
But 3 weeks+ is normal for the ingame items.

Also sunday the 13th is fine although I have to work till 10pm GMT+1 after that I'm game!

And I'll try to make it to the party with you lovely people. Not sure if I'll have the time - going to get slaughtered with projects for the next couple of weeks.

So if the party starts at 19:00 GMT, then it starts 2:00pm EST time yes? (-5:00) 6 hours would go until 8, so assuming I have an internet connection (with my desktop grounded to my room essentially, and the additional benefit of me getting the worst wifi..) I should be able to hop on sometime around 5:30-6:00 ish

I may be late/having to leave early/not show up at all to that party, as I'm currently at home from the uni, and will be returning to the uni on Sunday.

I have just realised that Kiya gave me a lot of stuff that does not seem to be mentioned in the first post. I think Darcy's 2 candysmiths were unallocated. And I am sure there was some more prizes mentioned in a post somewhere.....*looks in despair at all the pages in the thread*

You're doing a good substitute job. I just wanted to say thank you for doing it ^^

To everyone else; can't you whom donated contact aeronwen to ensure the donation list is correct? Let's hope Verene can come back a little and fill in the blanks at least. I hope her life sorts out.

*hugs Aero* aww, don't despair D: As long as the base prizes are covered, any extra stuff can always go to the Wintersday workshop, so don't worry

Yay for the party tomorrow Not sure if I can make the start, but I'll at least try to pop in later on to say hi

I'll have all of the judging sorted and everything ready to go by party time. I plan on posting the list at noon tomorrow (or as close to noon as I can be online), since that's when it starts

Also, not all of the goodies were actually allocated to individual prizes. I unexpectedly got more stuff after I originally split things up, and just never actually got around to divvying it up. I'll probably use most of it to pad the current prizes. We can set some aside to use for Wintersday, assuming we do this again, though I definitely cannot do that one.

Yeah those were the "other things I can rustle up before the end". I think last year someone did some trivia to pass out for extra prizes between giving out the workshop awards.

Tomb of the Primeval Kings? I don't think I can reach that location yet D: I'll try because I want to be there but I can't promise that I can get that far :c Unless of course if it is easy to get there.

Depends on where you are at now Baktwerel, i will send you a PM with my IGN so you can contact me in game, get on as early as you can and we can probably run you...

-------------------

Last year Tommy helped me out and he did some trivia, where i did RPS i think... if there are people that want to do something during the party, please be my guest ... i have arranged for Dj's to be present at our party, so we can all tune in and have appropriate music (feel free to ask for request) they will also do Trivia 'on air' ... i myself will be doing things in district, which i will figure out after my 2nd coffee , and a bit depending on whether other people want to do things , if all else fails we can try to do a ritual and bring Mad King Thorn to Tombs to keep us entertained with some of his jokes :P

Well.

Heh.

It seems that all of the judges were of the same mind on a lot of categories.

However, this may mean breaking of the "can only win one award" rule XD

This is going to be interesting

Don't break the rules !! ^^ ... use your discretionary power to make a 'nr.2' win a prize ... the more winners the better

And yes, I realize that Minami is listed as a judge and as such should be ineligible from winning - however, I never actually received a sheet from her, so I decided she was eligible to win prizes after all.

So! There we go. Congratulations to everyone! Party starts in about 10-15 minutes, so get to Tombs ID1 as soon as possible so you don't miss any of the fun!

Also, if someone's not able to make it to the party and they're a winner, no worries! Your prizes will be held for you until you can make it on. Just PM me and we can set up a time to trade.

Wintersday should be pretty awesome, as the leftover donations from Halloween will be rolled over for Wintersday prizes

Wasn't expecting it since I never could get to the Halloween-related aspects, and it wasn't finished. <3
