ST PATRICK'S DAY EVENT | MOON MARCH MADNESS | 2024​

The annual Monria St Patrick's Day Event is our biggest event of the year with higher PED prizes and items for both hunting and mining. We let the Evil Leprechauns come out to play, and add other surprise elements to the activities. However, despite the fun factor, there is always an abundance of chaos.

Suffice it to say, it presents yet another opportunity for Decca to assemble her Cultists and other creatures to make another attempt at defeating our existence. I'm not sure what it will take for Decca to finally realize that her pursuit to regain control of Monria, as well as expand her efforts across DSEC9 and Toulan is futile. We have built a cohesive, strong and dedicated warrior force to continue to take Decca to task and come out victorious ... she's just not getting it.

However, this isn't to dismiss the darkness that we've had to face, nor the delusional attempts by Decca to recruit community members to her Cult of Shut'thend by offering rewards for entering the churches at both DSEC9 and Toulan to worship the Elder Gods. I say delusional because Decca thinks by her own dark intervention those who enter the churches are becoming her followers, which is a false belief. Will we lose a few along the way, it's possible, but unlikely.

Decca knows how closely tied Monria, DSEC9 and Toulan are, so she's still trying to get her hands on the Book of Laws because she wants the clues on how to free the 3 Dark Mages locked in their towers on Toulan. If these 3 Dark Mages were ever released from their imprisonment, it would be a dark day for all of us. We already have a great challenge because Decca and Yog-Sothoth possess the Necronomicon and continue to try to crack the code that will foster the awakening of Cthulhu. With the ongoing darkness that we face, I can't tell you how important it is to become more of a stronghold to keep the evil at bay.

It is time once again to defend our existence and go into battle against the rising dark forces of evil on Monria. Persevering in the face of challenges is what we're good at, and we continue to increase our numbers and grow stronger, so let's show Decca that her attempts to defeat us are more manure than maneuvers.

Question is ... are we able to hold off the darkness indefinitely, or will we one day have to face a more devastating evil?

ST PATRICK'S DAY FASHION CONTEST

Do your best to assemble the most creative-looking Irish-related fashion you can and get ready to parade yourself in the DSEC Military Camp Monria Boxing Ring in an effort to win one of three PED prizes. Leave your ego outside of the ring, because during the fashion viewing by the judges, those who are not in contention for winning a prize will be eliminated --
I think you know what this means. :nana

ALERT ... During the process of creating the Irish Fashion Competition event in the Event Organizer at the Monria Boxing Ring, I was reducing the Minimum Reputation Requirement based on previous feedback and set it to 0, but got an error message that creating the event "cannot be executed" ... so I set it to 10 and it worked.

However, when ShadowDragonV registered for the Irish Fashion Competition I got a message that 10 ped was deposited to my PED card. We NEVER charged a fee for any of our events, so this was an error on my side. I rechecked the Event Organizer and sure enough, it showed a 10 ped fee to enter the event (it caused me to curse in Monria chat, LOL).

So ... anyone registering for the event will be reimbursed the 10 peds, and I apologize. I will meet up with registrants at their locations when it's convenient for them and reimburse the 10 peds. I will keep track via screenshot of all trades and keep a written list.

Once again, my apologies ... I blame Decca !!! :censored

I updated the first post with several links that give you ways to listen to our traditional and fun St Patrick's Day music ... it seems that the UI Updates may have interfered with our in-game broadcasting, or Decca's Cultists are at it again and messing with the transmitting towers at the top of the moon ... one never knows with Decca, this may be an interesting weekend.

HEADS UP ... I got the SPD event results early, and added them to the first post ... just scroll down to EVENT ACTIVITIES | PRIZES to see who all the winners are ... looks like Love Craft Academy cleaned up on the Team Hunting prizes ... Gratz !!

Thank you to everyone who participated in this weekend-long annual SPD event, it was great fun, and I really enjoyed spending time with the community with all of the SPD activities and the side activities that some of you engaged in between the SPD activities like taking on the OTIS Commander and working as a brilliant group with exceptional team work skills to get everyone across the line to achieve their Tier 3 Contribution @100% with the Shrine event at the Mountain of Madness to get their Elder Gods Suit.

And a thank you to Fatty once again for holding his annual SPD event on Monria and those who participated ... I watched his stream through the attack on the Green Leprechauns with powerfists, and then the boxing bouts between contestants for some nice prizes.

All in all it was a grand weekend and --- Congratulations to all the Winners :thumbsup

I also forgot to mention a HUGE thank you to ShadowDragonV not only for the event banner and Irish Fashion Contest graphic of the winners, but for her amazing SPD 10-Day Countdown to the event ... they are quite hilarious.

She's clearly creatively talented, and I couldn't appreciate her more as my Community & Media Partner. 💜
