Howdy,

You can always roll up a toon on Sarlona for the fun and hijinx.

Always a good time and some folks just hang out and banter. Dance parties occasionally break out etc.

Come get the fun on Sarlona!

:D

We had an amazing turnout for our 2020 Halloween party! The entire event was live streamed on my Twitch channel vooduspyce and you can watch the replay of the entire event here (https://www.twitch.tv/videos/788579702).

We started the evening with a segment of easy and newbie-friendly questions with prizes that included many new player gear kits.

At 10:30 was our Trick or Treat special event! Ten High Lords were hidden all over the harbor and we sent trick or treaters out looking for them. Anyone who found a High Lord could open a trade window for a treat! Here we passed out everything from large bags and portable holes to Potions of Wonder and major mana pots!

At 11pm was the costume contest where we saw perhaps the highest level of participation of all time! Here are the contestants lined up on the docks outside of the lighthouse....

My guildies voted for their favorites and the 2020 costume contest winners were:

1st place: Nasuadu (winner 2 years in a row!)
2nd place: Journeymann
3rd place: Quequec
4th place: Hiisi
5th place: Liltipsy

The 5 winners were each awarded a cosmetic pet certificate! All contestants received a participation prize of 20 Potions of Wonder and Bigby's hands.

After the costume contest we continued trivia with a stint of pen and paper D&D questions before we finished with DDO questions until we ended the evening at nearly 2am!

Hundreds of prizes were awarded, from pet certificates and tomes to sentient xp gems and rare craftables!

There was a 5 win limit on trivia and the big 5 time winners were Megamman, Tylsin, Angothor, Miph, Nebume and Holz! 5x winners got a bonus 20 Potions of Wonder or 20 Gems of the Ocean's Winds!

4x winners: Kraba
3x winners: Moisst, Riceking, Nossus
2x winners: Myraon, Mistmore, Alexxandarr
1x winners: Zivon, Muizz, Thragnikkar, Holythumb, Hiisi, Putzle, Wdh, Journeymann, Stavroth, Flbertybjt, Rahulk-1, Llint, Pedur, Tulare, Deathblades-1, Grogerian, Dravzel
