The great christmas vacation mega-thread

[X-SASI/Orthien Tane (Rune)]

Seeing how these threads start to pop up, let's keep them all in one thread

SASI/OT (Rune) will be semi-afk until the 28th. Do not hesitate to send me any emails, but be aware that it might take a bit longer than usual to get a reply.

I'll be on holiday from today until the 5th. Should be close to a computer for parts of it, and I'm happy to spend they days with some mulled wine and sending scheming dispatches.

Have a very merry Xmas and a happy New Year. Don't forget to celebrate the winter solstice on Sunday with some proper drunken debauchery.

I shall be spending the entire holiday period no more than 10 feet from a computer but with a glass of port and a mince pie to hand as well. Expect me to write at least one dispatch on christmas day

[X-IHH/Wallac Isilviere (Kasper)]

Having just returned from some serious drunken debauchery I am well into celebrating Christmas as well as New year. Local time being close to 7 AM I choose to not make any serious RoE stuff and instead go to sleep

But for the next 10 hours or so I will be paying attention to my emails.

I wish everybody a merry Christmas and a happy New year.


Cheers!

Alamie will be off until next Monday, so back before 2009.

Happy Holidays everyone!!!

Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Hanukkah etc.

[X-Haelyn's Aegis/RK (Andy)]

Merry xmas all.  Or perhaps more IC:  Peace be upon you this Eve of the Dead..

Hmm, not quite the same sentiment.  I expect Anuire has a somewhat quiet midwinter (raging undead incursions from the Shdow World excluded)

Deck the Halls with Undead Corpses!
Fa la la la la, la la la la!

I appear this morning to be able to do no more than waddle from my bed to the sofa. I think perhaps I ate too much....

Christmas is good!
