Hello, New Eden. It is time for another round! In the spirit of the holidays, for the sake of Live Events, the people, and our great universe of New Eden, it is time for eleventh (11th) annual snowball fight! [Last year, we celebrated our tenth anniversary! Let’s see where these next ten years will take us!](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/luminaire-snowball-fight-x-17-dec-23-2100-eve-time/427030) Bring Festival Launchers, snowballs, and fireworks for some fun, games, and smashing the stuff out of each other in Luminaire! If you need a Festival Launcher or fireworks, we have enough in store for everyone! Just ask me and I’ll give you one and a few snowballs and fireworks! **Anyone who needs snowballs, fireworks, or a Festival Launcher will receive one for free! If anything, you will probably receive a Festival Launcher and snowballs for free via login rewards prior to the event anyway!** If you wish to communicate directly with me, you’ll find me in the “Content: Events” and “Live Events” chat channels! **We also have our own personal channel, titled “Luminaire Snowball Fight XI Info”** **Snowball Fight Details:** **Luminaire VII (Caldari Prime) - Moon 6 - Federation Navy Assembly Plant** **15-DEC-2024** **1900 EVE Time** (Note the time change!) _That’s 2pm 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 12-JAN-2025. **CCP Convict and CCP Zelus have been notified and word is spreading throughout CCP of the event!** **I have notified my CEOs and alliance leadership to put in a Fleet Fight Notification request form into the records on my behalf!** **New Eden Radio has been notified!

You can partner up with someone if you like, but prize packages can only be awarded to individual pilots! -Note: based on popular demand and performances, there will also be prizes for Outstanding Group Display! These will be awarded once per lightshow to the best-looking organized group of capsuleers, while the same rules for lightshow performance also apply to these groups (i.e., getting CONCORD-killed will result in disqualification). _-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 an item which is not permissible!) **-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 -please set contracts for the maximum amount of time so nothing expires -contracts may not be accepted during or even immediately after the event, but they WILL be accepted–we cannot delay orchestrating and running the event with administrative tasks such as contracts and paperwork -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. -any “crate” items will be opened, and the items which are produced will be given as part of the gift **-the following items are not permissible for the Secret Santa Exchange, as they cannot be contracted or have little to no value appropriate for an exchange: contraband, items deemed illegal by the laws of the empires, any “expired” items such as boosters, accelerators, or crates, “Civilian” items, or items with a total value of less than $1,000 ISK such as literal “Garbage” items.** _-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: Someone attempted to impersonate me in 2020 around this time and was dealt with. Make sure you double-check your contracts to ensure they are going to the right person!** **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 all for coming to this great and wild snowball fight! I’m especially thankful to all of our donators, CCP for their support, New Eden Radio and Daggaroth for providing music for us, This Was The Way for providing on-site support and customer service to our attendees, EVE Rookies for encouraging their membership to attend, and all of our attendees who make this event possible each and every year!

Just thought I might post Commander A9’s Voices of New Eden episode here. He went into how the Luminaire Snowball Fight came to be. And, next month I’ll release the full clip with it’s entire backstory! The link below starts at the snowball fight topic, but feel free to hop around, there’s chapters in the video description.
