Hello, New Eden. **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 the twelve (12th) annual snowball fight!** [Last year was our eleventh event - can you believe it? We’ve been at this for 11 freakin’ years!](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/luminaire-snowball-fight-xi-15-dec-24-1900-eve-time/468369) 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,” “Live Events,” and “Comrades and Ops” chat channels! **We also have our own personal channel, titled “Luminaire Snowball Fight XII Info”** **Snowball Fight Details:** **Luminaire VII (Caldari Prime) - Moon 6 - Federation Navy Assembly Plant** **14-DEC-2025** **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 11-JAN-2026. **CCP Convict and CCP Zelus have been notified!** **We got coverage in the Community Beat!** > **[Community Beat for 5 December | EVE Online](https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/community-beat-for-5-december)** > > Your regular update on what's happening around New Eden! **We have a topic on JustAbout!** [https://justabout.com/eve-online/39736/capture-screenshots-or-video-from-the-luminaire-snowball-fight](https://justabout.com/eve-online/39736/capture-screenshots-or-video-from-the-luminaire-snowball-fight) **I 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! Daggaroth and New Eden Radio have been contacted!** **Livestream coverage is encouraged!** **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 a “numbered” or “positional” prize (i.e, 1st, 2nd, 3rd Place, for example)! 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! Try to get your contribution as close to Luminaire as possible please. **Thank you to all those who have donated!:** **Geo Eclipse Oksaras** - fireworks and snowballs **Virion Stoneshard** - advertisement in Spectre Fleet Discord **Keacte** - advertisement in EVE Rookies Discord and NPSI Calendar ( [The 12th Luminaire Snowball Fight (14-DEC-25, 1900 EVE Time) - NPSI Community Gateway](https://npsi.rocks/events/4702/) ) **Kshal Aideron** - advertisement in EVE Rookies Discord **Hexelen** - $250,000,000, 4,000 Snowballs **Anataine Deva** - $10,000,000,000 **Pierian Shawcross** - $2,000,000,000, over 110,000 assorted fireworks, over 40,000 snowballs, 730 Display/Festival Launchers **John Endlend** - assorted snowballs and fireworks **Teyr Ogeko** - helping to promote the event in EVE Rookies Incursions **typing** - $5,000,000, party-fit Exequror **concretebreaker** - $5,000,000 **sex pimp** - $1,000,000 **Amiomia** - livestreaming and distributing items ( [Twitch](https://www.twitch.tv/amiomia) ) **Fembot** - $1,000,000 **Current Secret Santa Participants:** 15 **Total ISK Donations:** $12,262,000,000 **Highest Peak Local Population:** 71 **CCP Operators:** 1 (CCP Zelus) Event Schedule\*\* **1900:** Event Starts at Luminaire VII - Federation Navy Station **2030:** First Lightshow **2100:** Second Lightshow **2130:** Third Lightshow **0000:** Secret Santa window closes **All Evening:** Secret Santa Gift Receiving and music-playing **Note:** I, the Fleet Coordination Commission, and/or Live Events as individuals or group entities will assume no liability for any ship destroyed in the course of traveling to/from or participating in activities during the festivities. ---

Winter Weather Advisory: Yes, we’re still a go! XD However, just in case, in the event I have a power failure down here and am unable to return, we will resume next Sunday at 1900 EVE time at the last point of activity (i.e., where we left off). We are still on! We are still on! Just to be clear, we are still on! Just to cover my bases. We got alot of snow down here (which means I have to shovel out the driveway when I’m done here!) ---

Thanks again for staging this. I was a little short on snowballs but at least the market was stocked for a while, and I made it into the last few moments of Kane Karnifex’s highlight reel. Hope to make it again next year. ☃ ---
