Title: Christmas/New Years Party!
Post by: TrapA7X on December 17, 2014, 04:21:51 am: So, it's that time of the year again! :D It's Christmas next week and Ecorrigall usually throws a little Christmas/New Years party on the great server of SMP Opticraft. But I was told that she wasn't going to do it this year D: So who thinks she should do it this year? Just a little Christmas party thrown by Ecorrigal! Please post what you think in the comments section below. (kind of sounded like YouTube for a sec there..)

Post by: Cora on December 19, 2014, 11:43:32 am: thinking more new years so like Jan 3rd ish - and think ugly xmas sweaters... more details when i can.
Title: Re: Christmas/New Years Party!
Post by: TrapA7X on December 19, 2014, 07:02:22 pm: Nice. The 3rd sounds like a great day.
Title: Re: Christmas/New Years Party!
Post by: Cora on December 21, 2014, 06:24:01 pm: going to do things a bit differently this time - I don't' have time to put together a decent poster or harass Nick and tobs for permission to post in the "Event" section so I'm going to keep it here, and let the time selection be a discussion - people mentioning what works best for them. For me - 7pm GMT -5 (EST) would be ~best~ because then I wouldn't need Code to juggle the kids on my behalf, they'd be in bed, and it's not sooo late that I'd be too tired to do much of anything lol!

Also theme is - as I said - "Ugly Christmas Sweaters" so get working on those ugly christmas sweater skins!! I want to see all kinds of cute tacky xmas sweaters!! GrannyRozannie, Nothing________, and many others are putting together some great prizes so you better come with some BOSS skins if you want a reward! =P There will be some tunes hosted on Mumble for your enjoyment - and I know we have a boss new DJ site for Opticraft, however I think for an "event" that the DJ's should not be able to shuffle back and forth. Hope to see you all there! =D

For me - 7pm GMT -5 (EST) would be ~best~ because then I wouldn't need Code to juggle the kids on my behalf, they'd be in bed, and it's not sooo late that I'd be too tired to do much of anything lol!

So Tom in other words it's 12pm (midnight) in GMT 0 Time. Work it out from there.

Actually some family stuff has come up so closer to 8 or 9pm EST -- or on the 4th would be best. Or I can set up my henchmen to run it for me. Up to you guys.

Never runs more than an hour or two usually but people are welcome to keep playing music on the DJ plug in and partying as long as they want - but I'll be done after a couple of hours.
