After some consideration, Dexter has asked me to take over the judging for the Luna Trash Can Contest and I have gladly accepted.

Now quite a bit of time has passed and I have decided to reopen the contest from now until the 15th of May for any who wish to newly participate. If you previously entered and would like to resubmit, having come up with a new idea, I will override your previous entry.

I have the follow participants on file already from before:

1. Tek
2. BlissMarie
3. The Hands of Shiva
4. Britney of CoC
5. TrojanMan
6. JohnnyComeLately
7. chappy

If any of these players would like to keep their current entries, then simply reply on this thread confirming it.

To anyone who wishes to enter the idea is simple, design a trash can for Luna. The only rules are to be creative and that your design is subject to be changed (or rather, simplified), according to Great One, Mesanna. The winner will of course have their trash can recreated in Luna and have a plaque dedicated to their victory!

Again, the contest will run from today (the 7th) until the 17th! All entries can be posted on this thread or e-mailed to me at pallando@uoem.net

Please include a description of your design and a screenshot if possible. Good luck!

In an effort to give LA a unique touch and a meeting place for both EM and player run events, a Fairegrounds contest is being held!

Contestants are more or less given free reign to design whatever they wish, as appropriate for a meeting place, and using whatever tools they deem necessary (InsideUO, MS Paint, and the like) to create their design. There are however a few rules:

1. The location for the Fairegrounds must be outside of any guard zone and must be in a comparatively spawn-free area (animals, mongbats and the such are fine) and fairly clear of obstructions (not in the middle of the woods or on top of a mountain or anything).

2. The Fairegrounds must be in Trammel and on the mainland, in order to make it fully accessible (if you have an idea for otherwise, please PM me and I will find out if it can be done).

3. ALL designs are subject to be modified as according to Mesanna, who will be bringing the design to life. The winner will, of course, be notified of any changes should any be required.

4. Contestants are also welcome and encouraged to come up with a name for their final design (“Fairegrounds” is abit too common and for the purposes of this contest, is only a placeholder name)

The contest will run from today (the 7th) until the 21st of May, with a winner chosen shortly thereafter.

The winner will receive the recreation of their design and a plaque dedicated to their win!

All entries must be submitted to my e-mail at pallando@uoem.net with all details and screenshots necessary. Good luck designers!

Just wanted to quickly address a few things.

1. I have received the question of what the current EM arc is on another thread and in an e-mail:

The overall name of the arc is “Void Rising” (which began with the event by the same name), and we specifically are in the “Kingdom Corrupted” sub-chapter of the arc, which involves the war of the Britannians against the Void. The next sub-chapter will be named “Crusade of the Ancients”.

2. I am again putting out the call for any Player-cities (regardless of play-style) or any guilds that are willing to possibly participate in future EM events please post with details at:

3. In an effort to clear things up and avoid possible confusion for future events, if anyone is aware of items (journals and the like that might misdirect players) from old events that need to be cleaned up please reply here or e-mail me with a description of where it is at and a screenshot if possible.

4. The last event (“On the Threshold”) was an experiment, using both the puzzle mini game on the crystal formations and the use of self spawning monsters (The Angorlems and a few others specifically, not the rifts or demons). Having never used both before, the puzzles worked it just fine it looks like, though the void creature spawning not so much, as many of you undoubtedly saw the forest just absolutely swarmed with them (they were automatically spawned, I didn’t create them), creating lag issues. I will be more cautious with it in the future, but I am glad the event was enjoyed nonetheless. Any suggestions for future events would be much appreciated!
