Posted September 9, 2012 (edited) I'm actually tempted to come back to Freedom for a short while to visit this event, considering I hosted the 2009 Impalong and was at the Millennium Impalong too. Edited September 9, 2012 by Ols Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 10, 2012 I'll be there, sad to hear that it'll be the last though!!Willow, I recommend that you get in touch with Wossoo (PR Manager) and speak to him about publicising the event. In theory, this will be the first community event after the v1 release, and so it wouldn't be bad to get loads of people going! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 10, 2012 (edited) Sorry to hear you're going into Impalong retirement. Sounds like it's going to be a big blast, can't wait for it to get started.edit: tiepo Edited September 10, 2012 by Gumbo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 10, 2012 Sorry, what on earth is an "Impalong" can you please explain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 10, 2012 Sorry, what on earth is an "Impalong" can you please explain A festival where you can let some of your items be imped to very high lvls by many skilled players.A festival where you can do all sorts of games/competitions and win great prizes.Simply a place to have lots of fun and meet fellow wurmians Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 10, 2012 (edited) Sorry, what on earth is an "Impalong" can you please explain A player-organized festival/social gathering where the main activity is imping each others items free of charge. Impalongs can occur sporadically but the biggest one is typically the Xmas-New-years impalong that has been arranged annually for several years now. The last few Xmas impalongs has taken place at Festival Cove on Freedom, but it has been arranged previously at other towns on older servers. It's a great place to get together and meet friends and strangers and possibly score some nice items. Edited September 10, 2012 by EliasTheCrimson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
