7th Annual Full Cold Moon Gala |

The following flier can be found posted on bulletin boards of various establishments throughout Eorzea. ((Click image to enlarge))

=====DATE MODIFIED DUE TO ONGOING SERVER ISSUES=====

Official date is September 7th, at 7pm Eastern Time.

The 7th Annual Full Cold Moon gala is meant to provide a social setting for new and old RPers alike to help integrate themselves into the community. It takes place in present day (the previous 'few months prior to present day' setting has been dropped).

Due to the likelihood of a large turnout, there are some rules and some degree of structure for the event. These rules and structure are listed below.

Rules/Structure!
  • Event is 100% IC. Please keep OOC chat to a bare minimum or contained in chat channels outside of /say.

  • My character for this entire event is Elza Ashfen. All questions should either be sent to her via tell. I will be in tell hell. So please understand responses will be slower than normal.

  • Upon arrival, STAY at the gate. There's more than 1 gate into Fellsgourd Float. An event mod will be at each one (as well as other predetermined locations just in case people don't read these instructions). Do NOT head into the heart of the city until escorted. If your character is sneaking into the event and not paying the IC fee, that's fine. Just send myself or an event mod a tell that you're inside the city so we can ensure not to skip over you with the groupings.

  • An event shell will be utilized for the duration of the event. It will be used ICly for an announcement/PA system, though OOC talk is fine on it (just keep it all in parenthesis and to a minimum please). The shell will be discarded after the event concludes. If unable to take the extra shell due to being 8/8 linkshells, please make me aware of this immediately.

  • Disband all parties. You will be grouped up semi-randomly (if you come with a date, you will still be grouped with him/her, make sure we're made aware of it via /tell).

  • Entry fee is completely IC and not actually required OOC. Masks are not mandatory either, though it can make things interesting ICly if people don't know who you are!

Event Flow!
  • At the start of the event, attendees will be ushered to a central location. After the hostess says some words, the group will be divided into smaller groups of 3-5 people and each group will be escorted to a "table." Should one come with a date, the couple will be seated together. Do not come with a pre-created party to be seated together though, as that greatly undermines the purpose of the event. Each table will be partied up with the other table mates somewhat randomly and are asked to keep their IC chatter (save publicly viewable emotes) to party chat so everyone can follow things easier and have more intimate RP with a small number of people. Tables will be served food and drink and have time to socialize with others at their table for the first portion of the event.

  • The event will then segway into a dancing contest. Those who wish to participate will be randomly teamed up with a partner of the opposite gender. This will quickly turn into a "roulette" type of game where partners switch with one another at the start of each song. A panel of judges, randomly selected from the audience prior to the dancing, will decide the best couple. During this contest, it is heavily encouraged to keep IC chat one-on-one with your partner at that time (/tell). This is, once again, to keep the flooding chat box somewhat under control.

  • Following this, the dance floor will open to all who wish to use it. The event itself will also open up and become less controlled, allowing free movement to/from tables and chatter in /say until the party dies down to its natural end.


Seeking!

--Someone to help live stream the music. Most music will be pre-selected, though there may be room for the streamer to select their own as well.
--IC guards/mercenaries (guards will still be seated at tables and be able to socialize, but will have more free roaming powers and will also be asked to help moderate the event)
--Performers. If you wish to perform a song live ICly, let me know well in advance.

Little bit before I think.  You'd need to bring your alt Tongue

I think it's very feasible that characters can come back earlier (or later) than the major bulk will on release, so main characters attending this is very possible.
Personally, I can't have Deir attend but I may bring my alt.

I suggest anyone new to the community check an event like this out, even if you don't RP! It's a great way to get involved in things. Just remember, at big events like this it's easy to get lost in the crowds and text. Try to think of it like you are in a large group of people talking; you're not going to pick up every single conversation and it's context. If you're in a conversation, focus on those people mainly. If you are wandering, look through bits and pieces of conversation like you normally would.

Looking forward to this Kylin!

Yeah, it'll take place (in theory) before the time warpers return. The reason for this is to keep things "safe" lore-wise if possible. I know a lot of people are of differing opinions as to when the time travelers start appearing. This is meant to avoid any potential conflict in that regard.--No longer valid. Ignore.

Alternatively, I could have it set in present day. But we'd all have to be on the same page in regards to that particular scenario...which is unlikely unless all time skippers simply agree to bring an alt regardless xD. I'm interested in feedback about this, as I'd like it all to be as non-confusing as possible.

Rhio probably won't be able to go, but it might be a good event for Mal and his wife. Looks like fun.

Fine with no time warpers because Ryanti isn't one Big Grin

And yeah, he'll probably be forced to go, even if he didn't want to! So expect me. I might even volunteer for moderation, we'll see. I have the potential to make that IC too.

Due to various concerns brought forth in private over the last week or so, as well as to avoid less confusion, I'll be removing the 'several months prior to present day' timeline from this event. As most people seem to be considering open beta as the present day happenings anyway (as in, time skippers returning around that time), the attempt to make the event take place at an earlier point in time has become moot and will cause further confusion for people who have already started canon RP with their characters before and after the event. I'll edit the original post to reflect that in due time.

To summarize, the event will take place in -present day- time just like any normal public RP event as opposed to 'x months prior to launch.' Those who time skipped are still highly encouraged to bring an alt to play on the safe side in terms of future SE lore bombs regarding the time jump. But it is no longer required and it is highly likely that a few time skippers will be present at the event. We'll just have to go forward assuming that people are returning at slightly different times until SE proves us wrong.

This decision could be reversed again should SE reveal something crucial about the time skippers that would go against them being ICly back during open beta.

A location may have been settled on, though I'd still like to have more time before making it official. Date still pending obviously.

Hmms, this event seems purty interestings. Izaria shall try to be there wherever it's going to be. And it'd be great if there ARE masks in-game, it'd be purty cool. Soo, it's gonna be during open beta next month then right? Ooor, after open beta? Cause, if it's during open beta won't people have to get that, airship pass to go places first? And is it gonna be after people get a little far in their first main class quests?

I hope that made sense.

I has an RP Profile, don't have a Wiki yet though, not sure when to make that.

So there is no consensus on when the time skippers come back in the RPC? In my guild, we have it set that Time Skippers begin coming back in Phase 4, so I'm just making sure there isn't a set guideline I should be following or if there is what is it XD
