Happy Holidays - 2014: Best Served Cold!
« on: December 22, 2014, 02:21:11 am »

How are we doing? Review us at RateMyServer.Net!
Don't forget to patch!
If something still isn't working correctly, please submit a report.


Best Served Cold
Sky's the Limit! The Executrix Strike Back!
It has been four years since the attack on Christmas made by what many assumed to be the Rekenber Corporation, and although its innocence has been proven, tensions between them and Pax Imperia have rocketed to new heights. Meanwhile, the mysterious forces actually responsible for the attack have vanished, leaving clues to their whereabouts almost nonexistent.

Everyone is beginning to feel comfortable with enjoying the festivities once more without fear of some horrible incident when suddenly, Santa Claus announces a state of emergency, asking for the assistance of any and all able-bodied adventurers who might be willing to help. This IS Santa Claus, so helping him could prove to be very rewarding indeed...


Quest requirements:
Ability to solve riddles.
Ability to fight off mobs of semi-powerful monsters.
Ability to save Christmas!


A Very Kafra Christmas
The Kafra Corporation has launched their biggest drives for the holiday season.  They need your help if they're to meet goals and bring joy to families for some extra holiday cheer.  Please contact Kafra Christie in Prontera (151, 191) to offer your support.

The associates at the Kafra Headquarters in northwest Aldebaran are also offering a limited-time Christmas Special Menu in exchange for your Kafra reserve points (aldeba_in : 79, 161).  Be sure to drop by before it disappears!


Hark, the...Wha...?
Are you familiar with your Christmas carols?  How else can you be a caroler?
Linger around Prontera for too long and you might find yourself approached by the hoity-toity Caroling Quartet—carolers ready to soul-crushingly criticize even the most skilled adventurers in their feeble attempts to share the spotlight.  Can you impress them with your lyrical prowess?  Well, no, but you can try!

Follow them, and perhaps you'll stumble upon Nick the Hobo.  You'll find this grumpy old man wandering his territory, mostly keeping to himself and trying to stay warm for the winter.  If you run into him, he might just give you a tiny gift box for the holidays, but don't pester him too much in one day!


Item Shop Specials
The Item Shop has been restocked with Xmas Boxes containing surprise gifts for your friends!  Each box contains a random headgear, equipment, card, or Cute-Pet egg, and each color conceals different possibilities!

As usual, there will also be a follow-up raffle after the end of the event for additional prizes.  Each box purchased from the Item Shop will count as one entry for that box color's raffle prizes.  We will draw three winners per box color for the following prizes:
Red: Lord Kaho's Horn // MVP Card of Choice // 3 Red Xmas Boxes
Yellow: Lord Kaho's Horn // 25 Ad Lower Headgear // 3 Yellow Xmas Boxes
Blue: Lord Kaho's Horn // Celebration Ring // 3 Blue Xmas Boxes
Green: Lord Kaho's Horn // Pussy Cat Bell // 3 Green Xmas Boxes


Additional Announcements
Website Maintenance
The website will be down for roughly an hour sometime this upcoming week.  We will post additional information on Facebook and Twitter as we get closer to it.
The game server will not be affected, so you'll still be able to log in and play.


Thank You, AnesisRO! Rewards
In addition to participation rewards:
    Random winners:
ROBNaZe, nismo, taiki0210, Wing of Light, Haruu

Event ends January 18, 2015!

The raffle will take place after Xmas Boxes have been removed, and results will be posted in a subsequent announcement.

P.S.,
Caroling aims to become the most evil Angeling known to Christmas.  It is also an Angeling.
/wow
Also, PR-SX-0806 is the most evil robot known to Christmas.  Certain items you may seek cannot be obtained in the Endless Tower.

I like this so far.



Suggestion: Make the carols shorter.
As it stands right now, if you do one of the longer songs, you run the risk of the carolers timing out and locking you into the dialogue:

The website maintenance is scheduled for Saturday the 27th, time of day has yet to be determined but should not last more than an hour.

The staff and I are not satisfied with the new host and feel they have caused more issues than they have resolved. We are working on making things right and preparing for some exciting changes to welcome the new year!

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa or which ever holiday(s) you celebrate.

>___________________>
At least have them drop from something that doesn't take 60~90 min to respawn or make it drop from more than one monster. I rather have to farm a large amount of whatever than wait for the monster to respawn, flywing around the map to look for it, then compete with others for the kill and pray I was able to outdamage them. TWICE.

If you can't enter all the lyrics of a particular song fast enough, it might help to try at a shorter song.
