Inquiring minds need to know!

I ate two babies!
RE: Event Review: Highwinter - Shoshana - 11-30-2014
I swear to god we stopped you from eating the children. Dammit.
I thought the entire event was super fun. The gumdrops on the cookies were a really nice touch, it was super fun realizing we could just pull them off. It was a little unpleasant having to go through people legs to unfreeze them what with all the mud, but those ice puppet and freeze solid mechanics were a really fun addition. I personally adore singing and the caroling ghosts were super fun to get to sing with! it was also nice that their song was a song of heroism so we could fight the weights! And Praise Cassan shirt on the child made me really happy :') I'm really glad that it wasn't too cold, it was just the right temperature for a winter event! The only negative of the event was metal armour sucks and i need a gambasson (however the heck you spell it) because my shoulders are dying :'(
Thanks for a super awesome event!

What God? And I enjoyed eating those two cookie children, one even screamed as I ate its cookie flesh...my Goddess, I am a monster!
RE: Event Review: Highwinter - MM/NPL Dustin - 12-01-2014
Pros:
+Final mod with the treent was great! I loved tieing the chains of tinsle into a loop and throwing it over the ent's head.
+ "Holy shit, you're good with that stiletto!"
+ Open cabins was nice
+ Lit tavern! Makes way more sense for that area to be not dark as balls.
+ Song of heroism making a fight against undead much more fun than I was thinking.
+ Ice puppet was very well implemented.
+ Chasing gingerbread Matt down the hill was fun.
+ Evil snowman mod was well-done. Liked fighting the other PC's without it being assault XD
Cons: (A lot of which are prefixed wih "I know it's High Winter but...)
- Not a fan of the Holiday themed tags. It's going to be hard to sell a holiday wreath.
- Enemy selection was rather limited and became repetitive after a while. Liked the evil elves and yeti but there were way too many snowbolds. Maybe ice elementals or white-pelted animals (wolves would have been cool, also having bears out at one point was nice)?
- Mucky ground, but that really couldn't be helped.
Overall:
A fun time was had, was glad to see everyone again, but looking foreword to normal weekend events next season.
RE: Event Review: Highwinter - Promises - 12-01-2014
Pros:
+ I liked the theme, and the 'tongue-in-cheek' danger was a nice break.
+ Lit Tavern at night.
+ Pouting Snowbolds.
+ Probably causing a few earbleeds with my singing.
+ 10 Normal Present.
+ The tent is totally there.
Cons:
- None, really.
As always, looking forward to the next one.

Costuming as always is always A+. Every role was easy to tell what it was without asking what are you.
Leon's always hilarious
The Cassan play was pretty great OOG. I would have loved to have seen Lady Urquart's reaction.
Game was meh for me up till dinner but the second half made up for it. Many of the people I had hoped to RP with didn't come.
Day events are tough when people don't have a reason to split up and go to their camps. Turns into everyone killing 3 people over and over. I think hanging some candy canes in the forest and having people treasure hunt them would have split the group up a bit more.
I enjoyed the tin soldier, the snowman mod, Carol and Carl, Treant. I'm glad you guys came up with variations on songs and I was happy to get to take one of them home.
I'm glad there was a consequence to killing the snowbalds needlessly.
RE: Event Review: Highwinter - Gale - 12-02-2014
+Going to make actual cookies as part of the ritual
+Spiking a few of said cookies
+Bribing a snowbald and finding out about the treant
+Meeting everyone as Gale
+Giving Maximus a cookie baby, looked like he was going to tear up
-Repetitive enemies
-Everyone clumped together in town center for the event
"I keep telling people I'm a genius!"
Lots of fun and I'm looking forward to more mayhem

Thanks for posting these concerns.
We really appreciate any suggestions for ways that we can improve.
We also noticed these issues, but only having 8 of us on staff was really hard. We just couldn't feasibly find ways to split the town up and do 2 mods at once. I hope next time we can get more NPCs, and not have half of our Shaper team missing.
Thanks again.
