This may be the totally wrong place to put it, so move if need be. Anyhow, crossposted from Another GW Fansite That Shalt Not Be Linked:

* Where: Henge of Denravi, International District 1
* When: 6pm PST/7pm MST/8pm CST/9pm EST/2am GMT (Saturday morning)
* Who: Mesmers only! (With very few exceptions from well behaved people. )
* What: A free for all party! Ale, green dye, music, sync dancing, and videos!
* Female Attire: Virtuoso or the 1.5k equivalent (Performers)
* Male Attire: Collector's armor (it's easy!)
* Colors: Silver + Dye or your original color
* Other: After party (maybe) in LA ID1! EVERYONE can come to this party!! FYI: I am not the one organizing this, just spreading the word. The organizer of the event is planning to make a movie of this as well, hence his request about attire (and he also says come as you are if that's more convienent).

See you there!

EDIT: All screenshots should be posted in the Screenshot Exposition forum, in the Mesmer Convention thread. I'm no longer at the party, but last I left it, everyone was partying in Yak's Bend, International District 1.

EDIT 2: Scratch that, people went back to Lion's Arch International District 1.

Thank you, Mog, for putting this together.

Guess I have an excuse to buy some Virtuoso garb for my Mes. Either that or I can dye my lingerie green and then black afterwards.

In Ireland, where,as I'm sure you all know, Paddy's day originated, we go out and get drunk to celebrate, and Irish dancing doesn't feature. I'm afraid my mesmer won't be able to make it..

Sadly I will be far away from town when this happens, but I will probably be on my way home.

If it lasts more than an hour, I'll be there.

For those of you who may be showing up late, we may or may not still be at Henge. Instead, we may all descend on Lion's Arch International 1 for an after-party. So check both places, just in case.

Where the heck do you get virtuoso armor? I haven't come across it.

Haven't made it to Granite Citadel yet, and unfortunately bought and recently infused a different armor set. Well, what to wear is only recommended, right? If there aren't any bouncers, I don't see that there will be a problem. At least it's green...

If anyone sees Arabella De Lyon there, say hi.

I'd say this counts as the right place for it. This should be fun. I shall have to bring my friend. No offence to the dress code or anything. But i'm wearing my courtly armor.

Edit: When is St. partick's Day. Not a celebrated holiday here. But worth visiting for the party.

Meh, no virtuoso or performers. Guess me and my enchanters will just stay at home and drink alone.

T-minus 4 hours until it officially starts and there's already a crowd gathering:



More pics to come, presumably. See you there.

Quoting from the Mesmer Convention thread in the Screenshot Exposition section:

The current considerations for the next event is that there may be one the Friday before Factions comes out, or some time mid May, or some time mid November. These events will NOT be Mescon, considering that can only happen once a year... but they will be Mesmer-only events. The next event will be based on a Scottish theme since we've already paid homage to the Irish. It will be called the Mesmer Highland Fling of '06! Also, I made the mistake of making the last event not available to the Europeans - this time it will be.

The upcoming event will have contests to which an admission for participation in these events will cost you 500g. There will be events like best dance formations (to which a squad may participate - there may be a cheaper cost to admit a whole band of dancers). Naturally, they'd have to be more complex than just syncing altogether. There's LOTS of things you can do with GW, it just requires coordiation, teamwork and patience.

Some other contests might be best mesmer-related artwork - this may be a contest to which all can be admitted. Other contests might be mesmer performed and mesmer-related poetry/"music", best-dressed mesmer, and mesmer king and queen!

I hope this preview of the next event will get y'all hyped! Keep your eyes peeled for the next event! And, please, if you have suggestions for more contests or better event times, let me know!

Looking at it more objectively, if it can be put into practice, it may help keep the griefers out. No more wammos trying to rape-hump our dancers.

Perhaps a "security" team to "control and secure" during the event if any of these Griefers come All mesmers, and perhaps even non-mesmers, will be allowed to party on, dance, drink, conga, and mingle at no charge, just like at MesCon. The admission will only be charged to those who want to compete for prizes in the Highland Games. The money will be put towards affording some nice prizes for the winners.

I feel it will be put into practice because I will make a list of those who have given money for admission - which will have to be submitted at least 72 hours before the games themselves, should it come to pass. Only people on the list will be allowed to compete and be judged by the official judges.

If you create a security team, you'll only give griefers and trolls a goal to annoy. Seeing as there's not much we can do to prevent them, that goal will be easily achieved. Anyways, as seen at the mesmer convention, if you just ignore them and overpower them by continuing to enjoy yourself, they get bored and leave.

But, hey, these are only beginning ideas! If you've got some good ideas or opinions, please feel to comment!

~Mog Ruith of Armagh

PS. I wasn't sure that creating a new thread was right until a few more ideas based on what everyone thought of MesCon have been hammered out.
