A bit late, but I almost didn't do my events for this weekend because of the event system bug, but have been told that is fixed now with one of the patches, so on we go. Unless someone has planned an event before Friday that I don't know about, this will be the first test on CND of whether or not that really has been fixed, so feedback will be very appreciated, particularly from the winner to let me know if you end up with a silent hof as others have while the bug was active.

This friday's event is the return of the Longu Luau, a hunting event in domes 11 through 15, but with a difference. The proceeds from all ticket sales will go to helping me buy starter equipment for newcomers (tt guns, faps, mining equipment, pixie etc) that will be given out and won in specific free events next month on CND and planet (details to follow). So if you like to help out newcomers while having fun please join us on Friday night.

The Luau: We don't have beaches on the asteroid, but we can bring the beach party ourselves, so wear your best swim suit (meaning undies of whatever variety ), your grass skirt if you've got it, and party on with the mobs. The goal is to take out as many of the hula dancing Longus in dome 11 as you can, but as always feel free to take on the other mobs in domes 11 through 15 as well because they all count towards the prizes. My notes say that those other party crashers include Snarksnot and ND's pet Neconu in dome 12, Berycleds in dome 13, Snarksnots and Cornundacaudas in dome 14, and Atrax and Allophyl in dome 15. A nice variety there for most players. (Some were confused by my 'creative jargon' last time, so please check the rules and ignore all this fun stuff if needed, no you don't HAVE to wear your undies, and yes you CAN wear armour, and the hunt is not only in the longu dome but in DOMES 11 THROUGH 15)

For details on numbers and maturity levels in the domes please look at the excellent chart on EntropiaDirectory here: http://www.entropiadirectory.com/wiki/index.php?title=Club_NEVERDIE_biodomes_DNA_setting s

Rules are simple: Highest Total Loot wins, all weapons allowed, and no pvp this time around.

Date: Friday, September 29
Time: 20:00 MA until 22:00 MA
Place: CND Domes 11 through 15

1st Prize: 250 ped
2nd Prize: 100 ped
3rd Prize: 75 ped

Random Draw Prize for those not finishing in the top 3: A 50 ped shopping trip at Freyr's Fashion - Club NEVERDIE - Shop #11

Discount tickets (16 ped) will be available from Urso and other members of Entropian Green Tours as well as Mathayus. Tickets also available of course at the dome terminal in the fertilizer room west of the control room for 20 ped.

Special Note: It is STRONGLY advised that you both purchase AND register your ticket in the fertilizer room well in advance of the event start time. The latest sensible time to do this would be at least an hour before the event. It is no good having buyers and sellers running around frantically in the last 5 to 10 minutes trying to get tickets and register in time, and it is a waste to have ticket holders unable to get into the event because they did not register in time or arrived late. So please everyone, try to plan ahead to make the event as enjoyable and stress free for all as we can. Myself and others will be available in the fertilizer room in the hour before the event to help if needed in explaining how to register and to sell last minute tickets.

Please spread the word, and hope to see you all there on Friday to kick off the CND weekend.

Big thanks to ND for sponsoring and playing the tunes, Freyr for sponsoring the lucky draw prize, and all of the lovely ticket sellers.

Special Note: Next month I plan to change some of the Friday events, doing some of the regular ones, but also adding/substituting new ones, such as a newcomer event and a mining event, and not all will be ticketed events, so watch the forums for news.

I will try to get loose tonight and do some longus

TGIF BUMP, time for that last minute rush to get tickets, flights and get registered in time folks.

This event was a lot of fun, but not well attended, so a loss. This means my attempt to collect funds to aid the newcomer events fell flat, so I will have to take a bit more time to organize those I suspect.

Despite all of that we did have fun, a bit more like a small party, so ty to my pals who were there and making it fun (big hugs to Nisse and Leeloo for the dancing at the tp). There was a bit of a heated competition for first place near the end which apparently was enjoyed very much

Our winners:
First Place: Psycho Al 250 ped
Second Place: Klod 100 ped
Third Place: Sodi 75 ped
Bonus Random Prize: Linus Zip Lindstrom 50ped of items from Freyr's shop

I would also really like to hear from the mysterous new avatar who teased me in event chat that we knew each other but I didn't know it was him in that avatar. Had me really so I look forward to an explanation please since you vanished.
