I returned to EVE this year with a bang! I was personally summoned by CCP members to provide insight on Live Events, namely Federation Day in Summer 2018, which led to the Federation Grand Prix event. Furthermore, I hosted the 5th Luminaire Snowball Fight to the tune of billions in prizes awarded, 195 in local, and 99 participants in Secret Santa, with advertisements from CCP and the good word spread of members of the community. > [@Luminaire Snowball Fight V (16-DEC, 2100, Luminaire)](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/luminaire-snowball-fight-v-16-dec-2100-luminaire/123958): > > Hello, New Eden! Did you think me dead? A great immortal man once said “It would be a sad error in judgment to mistake me for a corpse.” In the spirit of the holidays, for the sake of Live Events, we will be hosting our fifth annual Luminaire Snowball Fight! [After the outstanding success of the last four snowball fights](http://www.eve-search.com/thread/501354-1/page/1), we’re dousing Luminaire with snow and fireworks once again! Bring your Festival Launchers, snowballs, and fireworks for some fun, games, and insanity in Luminaire! If you need… I have other horizons I will be exploring in the coming months, but due to likely security reasons, they cannot be disclosed. XD It’s good to be back! --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/start-the-new-year-with-1-billion-isk/130656)._
