On Thursday Oct 13, both my glitch and I leveled up to 26. All Contests now have their winners posted!

The party was at 3176 Buckward Vale Quarter and was taken to the street. The party ran from 6:00-10:00 PM Pacific Daylight (California) time, A countdown was provided by Tazuras. Ten winners got a prize bag worth 28k! There was also over 20k worth of food, drinks, herbs, crops, favors, but the 140+ attendees finished it off quickly! Glitchen eat FAST.

Here is a sample of one of the Prize Bags .
The Party Room had tons of food, all prepared by a master chef.
The Game Room had food, AND drinks.
The Patio served as an open bar with over 12 varieties of mixed drinks, plus beer.
Finally, the Garden had high yield crops, tons of herbs, and lots of purple.

There will be 10 competitions happened like this

Here is the time table for the party:
6:00PM: My house doors became open to the public. So many glitcheen requested entry I couldn't even keep up with requests.

6:00-6:30PM
: All food was eaten, much lag was had, and everyone was kicked out of the house, but partied on a buckward vale street!

6:30-10:00PM
: Six competitions were held.

RESULTS
Best Bean Guesser: I had a bean bag with 729 beans. Umi Won this contest by guessing 731.
Best Egg Guesser: I had a bag filled with 396 eggs. Limerence won by guessing 397 eggs.
Best Rookroller: Quarter Team candidate Tbr4 rolled rook before the other three candidate groups
Best Racer:  Sumi's Bureaucrat went 9.81 planks, winning this competition.
Best Detective: Makona won this by being the first person to discover I had leveled up to 26.
Best Musician: Glitchen agreed: Laurali played the best music in the whole party.
Best Dressed Lady- Glitchen agreed: Asha Greyjoy was stunning in her evening gown. 
Best Dressed Gent- Glitchen agreed: Artilect's use of leather and mouse ears was top notch.
Best Announcer: Violet Lapin trained gnomes, posted statuses, and made many notes about the party
Best Photographer: Varaeth won best picture when he snapped this rook crashing my party!

Credits:
My most treasured IRL friend, Cerulean, who not only introduced me to glitch, but gave me the confidence and inspiration to commit to an event of this magnitude. Unlimited nuzzlehugs for you!

All food and drinks were prepared by just one person: Aspasia, a master chef who is likely the hardest-working glitch you'll ever meet. She prepared everything you saw in just two days, in her spare time. I simply couldn't believe so many high-quality meals and drinks could be made so quickly.

My esteemed vote-taker, storage manager, operations assistant, and strategy helper Shakha, whom I've trusted with all the most valuable prizes at the party, and who also knows how to throw an awesome party! Shakha, you have been a monumental help.

Most of my money for this party was earned through gardening, but a good chunk of it was also through cubimal trading and transactions. Perhaps the most honest cubimal trader I've met is Larva Lover, who has an impressive collection of cubimals and loves to trade them as as much as I do. She's offered to help me out with special operations for the party.

Zoesera, my door prize Auctioneer, provided me with more than 20 sparkle powders when no one else was willing to make them for me. Thanks to Zoesera's hard work 32 glitchen will receive sparkle powder as door prizes, secondary prizes, and random prizes.

Of these wonderful individuals, Cerulean, Shakha, and Larva Lover have also agreed to serve as judges, bouncers, and pre-party planning agents. I couldn't have done it without their help and the help of multiple other glitchen who made donations or provided services.

  • How generous of you, Vermillion! I will try to come. Happy Glitch birthday!

  • This sounds FANTASTIC! It's truly amazing and inspiring that people have pulled together and gone to the effort to make this crazy party a reality.

    Unfortunately 6pm California time is 2am British time. I really hope I can make it but realistically I'm going to be too tired or asleep at 2-in-the-frikkin-morn. I'd love to come, however, and will try my best. And if I can't make it... have an amazing time, all of you, and especially Vermillion.

    The party schedule is now fully planned- you now know when all contests will be held
    There is an important update that better explains how to win the announcer contest.

  • Sounds so much fun!  Alas, I teach from 6:00 pm to 7:20 PDT, and don't have glitch access at work - I might make it for the last five minutes or so when I get home.  Have a wonderful birthday, though, and if I can come and splank you, I will :)

  •  I hope I can come. I may be busy. Either way, happy birthday! It's nice you'd invest time in a computer game, just to put together something like this. We thank you. :)

  • What time will this be in GMT? Something like 3AM?
    Posted 14 months ago by xLIFEx Subscriber! | Permalink
  • GMT = PDT + 8, so that would be... 3am - 5am GMT.
    Posted 14 months ago by Cerulean Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I realize the time isn't convenient for many people, but it was the best time slot I had available. My family always throws a small party at my IRL home, and I had to make sure both parties did not overlap. Since I'll probably be an active resident in Ur for quite awhile, There will be many opportunities for me to throw big parties, and next time I'll shoot for a Saturday at a time where my glitchen friends on the other side of the Atlantic can easily attend. Until then, A huge thanks to everyone who has posted their congratulations here!
