Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) Greetings friends, I would like to cordially invite you all to the first Luna-a-long. Hosted by Dracaa (myself) on my deed named Kappa, on the Xanadu server, at coordinate Q-15. This is my first time hosting an impalong. I've been working on this for over a year now. With work in real life only slowing me down. I'm proud to say though, my impalong is almost ready. It will be this November 11th to the 17th. I hope to have the maze finished and ready to explore, there will be a few small events, and all the imping madness you've come to expect from events like this. Spoiler So why name kappa? The name Kappa has a history though I don't know all of it in this game. It means a few things to me however, Kappa is a creature in another game i played before Wurm called "Harvest Moon". In that game you give Kappa a cucumber it comes out and thanks you. Some say Kappa is a demon and I have had a few people tell me its a Greek liter but to me, it's my Wurm home I bought from another player who later became a great friend. I have become good friends with all my neighbors. Why a Lunar Festival? In real life, I love the moon ever since I was a little girl. In Wurm there are few moons each one special in its own right. In Harvest Moon, there are seasonal festivals every month and one of my favorites was the lunar festival. So instead of linking it with Halloween, or Christmas, and since it happens in November, in the USA we have Thanksgiving, but all those holidays get a lot of stuff for them anyway. My dear friend Leander and i were brainstorming one night and he said something about the moon or create something individual and this is what we got. I love it too. And hope you all love it too. But what is a Luna-a-long? The simple answer is its an Impalong. "but I'm new to Wurm, what is an imp-a-long?" you say, well my friend Shrimpiie defines it perfectly. he explains it as "A community event that's hosted on someone's deed, where crafters and priests from across Wurm join together to improve/enchant others gear for free. In addition to the imping/enchanting, there are various other things such as games and events, prize giveaways, contests, and sometimes even GM's drop in to spawn a few mobs on unsuspecting Impalong-goers." Rules Spoiler Item Placement: Rename your items with your name before placing them into improvement/casting coffins or forges! Please be sure to place your item in the right coffin or forge. Pick up your finished item as soon as possible to make space for new items. If space is running short, Impalong staff will move finished items to "Overflow" shelves. If placed there you will need to contact Impalong staff in order to get your items. Improvements/Enchanting: Items will be improved to 70ql at the discretion of the of the imper. If you want higher you can pm the imper and ask as long there isn't a backlog of items to be imped. Only items that are 70ql+ will be enchanted on, or if named to be a skiller items. Place your items into the coffin labeled with the enchantment you want. You have to move them to the next coffin if you want another enchantment on them. Getting your items enchanted is at your own risk! Items can break in the process of being enchanted. Other: Do NOT being a dozen items of the same type to get improved/enchanted. You can bring a quiver of arrows or 4 horseshoes to be improved/enchanted. Do NOT sell items that you've gotten improved/enchanted here. If we hear you have done that you won't be welcome the next year impalong. Please turn off your personal light-sources like lanterns or torches! It helps with the lag for everyone else. If you have any issues contact Dracaa in-game or on the forums. 17 The Entrance the entrance to the canal is at Q-14 on the coast on Xanadu, Kappa is on the southern shore of the inland lake.
