Luminaire Snowball Fight VII (20-DEC-20, 2100, Luminaire)

Hello, New Eden! It’s the end of the year, and we know what that means!

In the spirit of the holidays, for the sake of Live Events, and you, it is time for our seventh annual snowball fight!

The last event and those before have been phenomenal! Once again, we bring to Luminaire a storm of snowballs, lasers, and insanity!

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
20-DEC-20
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!

Note: In the event of a power failure due to a winter storm, the raincheck date will be 27-DEC, the Sunday afterward.

CCP Convict has contributed SKINs, a fleet fight application has been accepted, and he is working on more details. We have an advertisement up!

New Eden Radio and DJ Daggaroth have confirmed their support!

Livestream coverage has been arranged with the following streams:
-General Stargazer through EVE-NT: https://www.twitch.tv/eve_nt_tv
-ISD Thalack Dalhar through CCP Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/ccp
-Xavier Bragish Koraka: https://www.twitch.tv/xavier1984

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 produce light and visual effects: lasers, remote-repairs, cap transfers, target spectrum breakers, drones, fireworks, 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. This ISK level is just an encouragement rather than a minimum requirement - gifts of less than 250M will be accepted (provided they’re not Civilian Hobgoblins and bodies!)
-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
-no alts please: If multiple characters tied to one player/user/person behind the keyboard are discovered, all gifts contributed by those alts will be combined into a single contribution and appropriate exchanges made - Please do not “game the system;” that’s not fair to everyone else.
-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!
Be Advised: There is a pilot who is attempting to impersonate ME and identifying himself as ‘Commander A 9,’ with a space between the “A” and the “9.” THIS IS NOT ME! Do not contract gifts to THIS individual!

Festival Launchers and Snowballs/Fireworks will be donated to any pilot who does not have one or runs out so the fun can continue!

The Battle for Caldari Prime Memorial Astrahus Citadel is online! We have enough fuel blocks to keep the power going for the next 2 years. However, we are always investing in the future, so any spare fuel blocks, components, and Upwell assets can be contributed to help keep the facility powered and supplied.

Any donations go towards obtaining equipment and prizes! Try to get your contribution as close to Luminaire as possible please.

Thank You To Those Who Have Donated!

Awh, man. I don’t think I can make it this time, and if I do, no way that I can be as happy drunk as last year. I still smile when I look at CCP Convict’s corpse.

Have wonderful fight!

Dare I ask if you were drunk when you bid on (and won) CCP Convict’s corpse for $6.66B ISK? XD

If I will create 10 contracts with the proper item price inside, does it means I will get 10 presents in return?

No.

One Secret Santa gift per person sitting behind the keyboard.

That means no alts either.

If someone contributes multiple gifts as part of Secret Santa either through multiple contracts or alts, they’ll all be condensed into one single contribution.

It’s more fair to everyone that way.
