Year 1100 centenary celebrations

Recommended Posts

I'm no mathematician, but it looks like Wurm will enter its year 1100 in less than three months from now. Sometime in March or April 2021 maybe?

 

Looks like a centenary is something that only happens once in every 11 real-world years and therefore might be a cause for celebration.

 

Are the devs planning something? If not, maybe the community should?

Great idea, thanks for bringing it up!

Would be a much better time for a marketing campaign. Show off the community and its history

"100 years of player history. Settlements, cities, and kingdoms come and gone"

Can use any of the thousands of screenshots showing player creations/events, and gather more through the new shoutbox. 

Don't let this go to waste!

I think Wurm has been around for much longer than 100 years. I have no idea what the first year was though.

Yeah, I think 879 or something like that was the starting year.

[21:16:20] You entered through the portal to Wurm on Luck day, week 1 of the starfall of Omens, 984. That's 4807 days, 12 hours and 3 minutes ago.

It's older than 984 at least.

EDIT : Might actually be 979

Well noticed!

 

As most of us are not able to celebrate in real life because of you-know-what it would be good for the soul to be able to celebrate a special occasion in Wurm.

Of course, just thought it sounded better and still includes much of wurms history

I was on Golden Valley when we celebrated year 1000. Must have been around 2009 after JK and MR Home were nuked.

So... what do we do for the Year 1100 celebration?

Big gathering at an awesome deed somewhere?

Well, looks like you stumbled on the big secret.  The devs were going to unite the Northern and Southern Clusters.  Not sure if it'll happen now that the cat is out of the bag.

Rather appropriately, the estimated start date for Wurm year 1100 is April 1.

 

Perhaps we'll discover the game has been an elaborate prank the whole time.

We'll find out that Wurm doesn't actually exist

According to another thread on this theme, the devs have something in store.

Unless I'm very much mistaken, the turn of the century is about a day from now. Disappointing we haven't heard anything yet.

There can still be some community event done this year. It's still year 1100 so it still makes sense to celebrate. Maybe give those prizes for participation only, without quizzes, tho. ^__^
