For Auld Lang Syne...

Was going to say "For A-alph Le-em Zille, my Glitch" but thought that was a stretch. Anyway, I'm sure all of you know what this is about. We stand on the brink of a new year! 

Since 2012 will be the year of the dragon, I have a feeling that the stony sentry of Unnu Slight will be stirring tomorrow, awaiting your stories from 2011, your confessions, your resolutions, and maybe even the odd request. 

But that's tomorrow. Tonight is the night, and apparently a not-insignificant number of you will be celebrating the New Years right in the game. So, we've set up a small surprise for anyone who happens to be living it up in Ur at the stroke of midnight (Pacific Standard Time, as always). 

So for everyone who's planning a knock-out, throw-down, drag-out party tonight, tell people about it right here!

  • +50,000 to Pancito. Yeah, that was a blast! I lost NO energy and mood while I was there for 45 minutes because of everyone radiating and bestowing. Lots of food and drink, Amorous Philtres, rainbow jumping around, bag jokes and all. Even the lags and crashes were pretty funny.

    Thanks, Tiny Speck! It was definitely a memorable New Year's Eve! :D

  • My friend Lyell said that God gave him a waffle for the New Year… which he proceeded to give to me. 

    Lyell is an awesome friend.

    I ate the waffle.

  • It would be sort of awful of them to demand people be in-game at the stroke of midnight in one particular timezone to get some unique item or totally new experience.  That would be unreasonable for a lot of players to attend--I think something on this scale is just about right, and really didn't even need to be announced.

  • Hope everyone had a blast at the NYE party! Glad to see 'my' street with nothing on it is getting to be such a popular spot (it's the only street that has my name on it as helping to 'unlock').  Sorry I missed it, but sort of glad I didn't stay awake for it, especially since I'm not a fan of crowds...when Blanky mentioned something SMALL...figured it might be global sparkles...have to agree that they could have at least colored them, but hey...global sparkles is still pretty cool.  Maybe next year we can get global sparkles for every time zone change, so we can celebrate with our various friends across the world. Just glad I didn't miss some major fireworks show to the tune of prisencolinensinainciusol...since I missed the original easter egg, I would have truly been upset to have missed something like that...

    Sorry folks had some many crashes...but yes, hope everyone has a blessed new year, and looking forward to 2012 being the best ever!  Bring on the club houses, and new housing designs/renovations, and more costumes (anxiously awaiting that great tiara that Jade has been sporting), and more skills, and more quests, and more creativity in game, and just a bunch more fun!  HAPPY NEW YEAR, y'all!!

  • Well, I didn't set an alarm but woke up in time to bring in the Pacific coast's New Year.  I made it to the party and absolutely loved the slew of rainbow jumps and the sparklies at midnight... My browser did not crash till after the sparklie effect so I was one of the lucky ones.  Thank you TS for a wonderful alpha/beta year and looking forward to 2012~~

  • I agree, the best part of all this was the party at Unnu.  <3  I could barely move or type but it was amazing just being there with so many people.  *^_^*

  • The dragon still as yet has not stirred to my knowledge.  Are we doing something wrong??
    Posted 12 months ago by ♪♥~ Auren ~♥♪ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Looks to me like the dragon ate all the offerings that were left for it (since they are now all gone). Otherwise, I haven't noticed anything different.

  • I was online during the new year in PST zone. LOVED IT!

  • I think it was kinda awesome for whoever plays god to be with all of us on a holiday, they could have done nothing at all. I am loving the community vibe here, it is getting better! I had to be at home, babysitting and sick so why not have some fun. Hope next year it can sparkle every hour for all time zones.

  • So how did it go??
    Posted 11 months ago by Enelyse Subscriber! | Permalink
  • So, what was the quest we were going to get?  Or did it already pass?  I was at the party on New Year's, but no one got a quest after...

  • More importantly, WHY has the dragon not stirred yet?  :<
    Posted 11 months ago by ♪♥~ Auren ~♥♪ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Ack, didn't mean to imply that the dragon was going to be actually, visibly moving around--lesson for me in using irresponsible metaphors. But, I had thought that piles of New Years wishes to be granted would be left after the ruckus, as per tradition. 
    Posted 11 months ago by Blanky Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Ooooh, you meant that the dragon would be moved by reading our notes, memories and resolutions. That makes sense!

    It was a lot of fun anyway, Blanky, even without an actually, visibly-moving-around dragon!

  • OHHhh.  *^-^*  I see.  Thanks for clarifying and Happy New Year Blanky!!
