Posted December 30, 2014 I was surprised to log in and see a message that Christmas was over. Sadly, I had not put up my tree yet and checked for gifts. I had just assumed it would run through the end of December, or we would at least get a warning message somewhere, like the "server is shutting down" or maybe email? Anyway, I vote for an extension to the end of December 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) Yes. Normal proceedings is to get rid of your Christmas tree on January 6; the date The Epiphany or Twelfth Night happens according to Google translate. Around here we just call this date Three Kings and it's the moment where you decide to either have an annoying evergreen in your garden because you are too much of a softy to throw away a tree or you are a douchebag that has thrown out a tree on the 30th of December to have wankers use it as kindle to set cars ablaze. So, in any case: Christmas doesn't end before a reckoning has happened between the hippies and the hooligans. And that date is January 6.

Posted December 30, 2014 No more snow? Nice. Logging in and looking at snow while it's 45C outside gets old pretty quick. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) A bit of a shame. Quite a few people will miss out on the gifts unless its extended a bit. At least the impalong(s) was great though! Edited December 30, 2014 by syncaidius 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 30, 2014 I am lucky as I got mine, but many people travel to family for a couple days and cannot log in on such a brief window. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 30, 2014 Christmas should last at least 12 days - better yet, publicize the window. Other MMOs will say specifically what dates their holiday events will run. Wurm should follow suit to prevent this situation in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 30, 2014 I got my present 3 days before Christmas so unless you didn't play for like 10 days no one to blame but YOURSELF! Aye, I picked up one on Christmas Eve. Tried on another account on Boxing day and couldn't get one then, so it wasn't just Christmas day, but it stopped after then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
