[EM Adris]

This particular event is Sunday yes THP, But in no way are we saying Sunday is the 'EM Night'. The poll shows people are available Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays mostly, Thursdays also show a strong performance so we'll cater to all of those days the best we can.

Because the "evil" Blackthorn was a doppelganger created by Exodus, or something on those lines.
The bones of it are that Blackthorn himself didn't turn evil, it was all Exodus.

Will PROTESTORS be allowed to be there too disturbing this or will we get kicked out of the Castle if we do?
Just to ask...

Depends on Blackthorn's mood at a the time I guess.

We're working on a new site to replace the current site, Unfortunately I don't have access to the current site which is why I don't use it.

 

[Ron Silverbeard]

Well...we can test out how he reacts to protests.
He might reveal himselfe evil putting us protestors into jail, or sending his guards on us..all that in front of maybe the biggest crowd since 10 years..
But than he also might die to a Fire Field ROFL
Oh well lets see if protestors will apear!

You can ask Emile Layne or even Sarakan about how to access the Europa EM website.

A lot of it developed in the official fiction on the UO Herald site (which is now uo.com) I don't often get to attend EM events now but have been following outside the game, as much as possible

 

[Petra Fyde]

All being well and barring disasters I'm hoping to be livestreaming this event.
Could I therefore respectfully request people restrict themselves to 'family friendly' language?

Hmm, to bad the handout system of the gifts semed to be broken...alot of peeps didnt get a deed on Europa, me neither...not one of the 4 chars i had there...hope this will be fixed - people on Europa allready starting to ask 100 Mil for the deeds hehe

 

[Olahorand]

Same for me - did not see the gate until it was closed, because was looking the wrong direction following the returning masses. (Did not even know that there was a gate!)
So 2 hours spent at the event, but not gotten the promised gift ...
Frustrating.

 

[Shakkara]

Too bad his fine cloak didn't catch fire.

But hey, I could try, eh?

 

[Escaflowne]

Long live the King!

How did the Archery Tournament end?

 

[Olahorand]

The best shooter had 200 - the second best shooters 150. Names are engraved and can be seen in the garden where the archery contest happened.

 

[Myphsar]

I got there early to get a good seat, and then a late comer came and sat on me.
And was even rude to me when i asked them about it.
Other than getting griefed it was quite good.
Archery contest was a nice touch.
Thanks to the EM's for a fun afternoon,

From skimming back through my journal, I found the final results - which are in the spoiler to allow for a proper 'official' announcement to bring the news to those who prefer it that way, or want to find out by looking at the plinth where the competition was held

[EM Adris]

Thank you all for coming, Was our pleasure to be involved in such a momentous event.

 

[Salivern_Diago]

Having gone to a few of the other shards, I have to say the Europa one was by far the best. Well done EM's!! The event was dressed well, had the right NPC's.. even the guards (and deco!)!!! None of the other Shards had that!!

Awesome event, well done guys!

Personally I was a bit disappointed, I much preferred Dawn's coronation which followed the traditional path of the candidate being annointed by the Archbishop. This 'coronation' appeared to consist of an instant transformation of a monk to a King.

Oh dear, I see Scrumpy was sitting in the audience ... I hope he wasn't a nuisance to anybody ...

You can have mine. Let me know where you live and I'll put it in your post box if you have one.

 

[Ron Silverbeard]

Now how about that! Nice move hen!!!!

 

[Olahorand]

I got already one from another player, a big thanks to Miri
And thank you for your generous offer as well!
Shows, that there is still something else than greed and Me Me Only Me mentality in the game
