Posted June 24, 2020 (edited) (impalong) ~September 13th-19th~ (Postponed) A’hoy mates,My name be Cap’n Leander, and i be inviting ye to a parlay at me deed, savvy? e’ll be all manner of goins on. Everything from fighting, drinking, imping, prayin, drinking, and of course fightin, just to name a few things… What's an Impalong? It's a community event/festival that's hosted by someone on their deed, often times they have themes to match the season, holiday, or hold some special meaning to the host. (for me its international talk like a pirate day sept 19th.) The word impalong was created long before i became a wurmian, but it refers to the action of gathering and improving items for your fellow Wurmian, it is an event where crafters and priests from across Wurm join together to improve/enchant other players gear for free. Everyone is welcome to work on their skills at the event. 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 Festival-goers. Location (where to find us) we are situated right on the coast in the almost direct south of Xanadu south of Lormere at S15 Spoiler S15 Xanadu on the community map The Calendar Sept 12 8pm eastern(us)time imper and staff meeting Sept 13 Doors Open (Welcome All) Sept 14 Sept 15 Sept 16 The Grand Hedge opens Sept 17 sept 18 Sept 19 (International Talk Like a Pirate Day) final day doors close at midnight (us) Sept 20 Clean up Daily Event Schedule Spoiler i will be adding a actual day even schedule as soon as i get more planning done. Discord Server https://discord.gg/5RQGPAY The Deed A very well designed deed built to make one feel as if they are in a modern medieval coastal village. All of the major activities are gonna be right in the bay area it features a small arena for some battles and other challenges such as the Champions Challenges. We have a grand three story community workshop filled with everything one would need to improve any item, including large items. be sure to mind the priests at the Monastery, some of them have been standing there for days and it shows. the token house is at the end of the main road north right at the shore there are pointing signs leading right to it. We have a wagoner on deed at the north gate along with a couple merchants and a trader. behind the merchants are my digable resource tiles. i have clay, peat, and moss, there. Spoiler the deed token house along the shore a wide view of the bay with the arena workshop and part of the monastery in view a few images of the arena from inside the outside with a fo and mag alter right there and a lib alter inside in the corner of the arena floor The Community Workshop(Imping facility) Spoiler more imegas will be added soon The Rules Spoiler Item Placement: Name your items before placing them into improvement/casting coffins or forges! Double-check which container you should place your items in, and place them there. (Most forges/coffins/racks are already labeled for ease of location) 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" bins. You will need to contact Impalong staff in order to retrieve your items. some commonly misplaced items are listed below Carving Knife, Sickle, and Scythe are Weapon smithing. (Cooking) Knife and Leather Knife are Blacksmithing. New fishing rods are Fine carpentry. Legacy rods are Carpentry. Fishing Reels are Jewelry Smithing.. The deep water reel is Blacksmithing. What to bring All items a person wishes to have improved or chanted (only one of each item for each player except for arrows horse shoes and armor pieces) Large items such as forges, floor looms, spinning, wheels, larders, ect are welcome. Wagons and carts are will be imped outside the building under the pavilion. Improvements/Enchanting: Quality items are improved to is at the discretion of the imper, but the minimum anything will get imped to is 70ql; if you want higher quality than arrange that via PM with an imper but ensure first that there is not a backlog of other items to be imped first. Only items that are 70ql+ will be cast on(unless they are skiller items; if they are below 70ql for skilling purposes name the object as such along with your name). Place your items into the shelf labeled with the enchantment you want. YOU are then responsible for moving the items to other Shelves for other enchantments. Floor Looms and spinning wheels can be placed for chanting WoA Getting your items enchanted is at your own risk! Other: Do NOT abuse the system by bringing in a dozen items of the same type to get improved/enchanted. If that occurs the items are forfeit, and confiscated, taken far out into the ocean and thrown into Davy Jones's locker, or just sacrificed.Do NOT abuse the system by placing in extra items of the same type, save for certain things like arrows or horseshoes.Do NOT sell items that you've gotten improved/enchanted. The pro-bono work done here is not so you can make a profit, so if that is your intention you are not welcome here. Contact myself or a Festival Staffer if you wish to be assigned a room. Turn OFF your personal light sources like lanterns or torches! It helps with the lag. If you have any issues contact Leander or a Staffer ingame or on the Discord.

Posted August 9, 2020 (edited) A'Hoy mates, I have have the displeasure of informing everyone that due to a series of unfortunate life events i have to postpone the pirate festival, i am extremely morose about the whole situation believe me. on the bright side it will give me more time to gather equipment prizes and various other things that i was severely lacking.. however i feel as tho i've failed those who have donated and promised the time for the festival and to those people and to those who were going to attend, just know this is NOT a Cancellation it is a Postponement, we few crew of Jolly Rogue shall return with a new shanty in our hearts and event date, so be sure to follow this post i will continue to post updates as i can..
