Hello, New Eden! This time has come once again!
In the spirit of the holidays, for the sake of Live Events, we will be hosting our sixth annual Luminaire Snowball Fight! After the outstanding success of the last snowball fight, we’re showering Luminaire with snow and fireworks once again!
See our topic on our last snowball fight to gauge our efforts over the years!
Bring your Festival Launchers, snowballs, and fireworks for some fun, games, and insanity in Luminaire! If you need a Festival Launcher or fireworks, we have plenty on-hand! Just ask me and I’ll give you some!
Snowball Fight Details:
Luminaire VII (Caldari Prime) - Moon 6 - Federation Navy Assembly Plant
15-DEC-19
2100 EVE Time
That’s 4pm USA EST!
Note: The Party will be at the Federation Navy Assembly Plant, NOT the Battle of Caldari Prime Citadel!
CCP Convict has confirmed his support
-A news article has been posted!
We have secured musical support!
-New Eden Radio’s DJ Daggaroth has volunteered to support us once again!
Lightshows will be held (similar to the manner in which EVE Radio does on occasion)
-prizes will be devised based on discussions about this event: prizes will include PLEX, ships, weapons, and other comical gifts
-to participate, bring devices that emanate light: lasers, remote-repairs, cap transfers, target spectrum breakers, and drones, etc.
-only individual pilots can be rewarded! You can partner up with someone if you like, but prize packages can only be awarded to individual pilots!
-Note: all prizes will be contracted to winners AFTER the event has concluded!
“Secret Santa” Gift Exchanges
-bring a gift to get a gift!
-items worth around or under $250 million ISK are encouraged, to be contracted to Commander A9 at Luminaire VII Federal Administration Information Center during the event to make the exchange with other participants: everyone who gives a gift gets a gift
-please mark the contract with “Secret Santa” to differentiate it from prizes and any donations, or else your gift might be accidentally given away as a prize!
-in outstanding circumstances, you can relay your gift earlier than the event, as long as it’s as close to Luminaire as possible
-Note: Secret Santa gifts will be exchanged AFTER the event has concluded, so we’re not wasting time trying to hand out the gifts in mid-event!
Festival Launchers and Snowballs/Fireworks will be donated to any pilot who does not have one or runs out so the fun can continue!
Any donations go towards obtaining equipment and prizes!
Thank You To Those Who Have Donated!

Note: While I am currently enlisted in TEST Alliance Please Ignore, I will be taking a brief leave of absence from the alliance with the permission of my corporation leadership in order to host this event. If you have any questions, you can contact me directly.
Update On CCP Convict Snowball Conversion:
CCP Convict just informed me that anyone who needs snowballs converted should please make a contract out directly to him from Luminaire VII (Caldari Prime) - Moon 6 - Federation Navy Assembly Plant with the snowballs in the contract for 0 ISK. This will save time and logistical efforts and spare him from having to station-trade with how many people need his assistance.
Merry Christmas New Eden! Package Auction
In the spirit of Live Events, I have decided that CCP Convict’s generous donation of his corpse will be auctioned off with a fully-fit Kikimora, 250 PLEX, and the skillbooks to fly the ship and use the specialized disintegrator, along with some other goodies inside. The revenue will go towards funding future live events!
The auction will be held after the last lightshow. I will host the auction in the system’s Local channel.
