[Shrimpiie 3,665]

Thank you

And when is a good time to get there to ensure there is still a room?

[Stargrace 602]

Yes defiantly will be.

[CIRAY 1,414]

Will try to attend...trying to get my mag follower to become a priest. If I can get him to priest up by then he can be a battery.

[Bachus 462]

Thank you

Don't worry Shrimpie there is always room and with so many people from different timezones not all are on at the same time.

[mentalmisfit 49]

Awesome, thanks

Another question: Who will take the torch for next years Impalong? They would obviously have a high bar to meet lol

[crutchly 8]

56 coalmaking here

87 carp

i can come by and make coal piles for the metallurgists

if a high WC can supply me logs of a high ql

I promise I won't be there.... last thing ya'll need is an old fart like me ruining things for ya. Besides, I'm not anywhere as near as skilled as many that will be there, there is little I could contribute anyways to be honest.

Thank you Willow, though I have never benefited directly with your work with the Impalong, we have all benefited in some fashion or another. Your contribution to this community is appreciated.

Have fun Impalong Participants and enjoy

I'm hoping this will be properly discussed, and instead of who (singular) will be who (plural.)

Kyrmius, feel free to come on over and join in the fun events we will be holding too, its not just about the imping we want you to have a laugh, some fun and maybe win some wonderful prizes.

As to who will be taking over the Impalong next year? Can we please at least get this years Impalong over with before we start worrying about all that. I have had so many PMs asking if I will let them do it/give my blessings to/ move out of my deed/decide who is taking it over.

I want to make it clear to all now that I do not own the Impalong, I cannot give the Impalong to anyone in particular and no I will not be handing over my deed to the next Impalong holders. Festival Cove is also my home deed, I set it up totally with my own money, I have kept the upkeep going with my own money and that is the way it will stay. Anyone wanting to hold the Impalong is free to offer themselves out to the public as and when we actually get into 2013. The community owns the Impalong, the community have always worked together to make the event happen. Please dont be offended if I do not reply to any more messages regarding this matter of me consenting to someone else doing it, Im sure you can understand Im quite busy preparing for this years Impalong. Trying to make it an event that will be remembered cannot be halted by me having to take time out to reply to questions regarding something that will be happening in another 12 months time.

So back to this years event...

We are now in December, the milestone for me to start to run around like a lunatic, worrying that Im not well enough prepared, that no one will turn up and will I actually be able to use my own bed or have to sleep on the floor again (you know who you are, the one that took my bed last year)

Im now going to start and call in a few favours so stand back and prepare yourselves.

Im going to need

10 x barrels

boat load of peat, failing that boat load of logs - to keep those forges burning 24-7 for 2 weeks

Thank you to all the offers of prizes I will add them to the list

[Darkren 15]

I'll be coming this year. I've reached my goal of 50 channeling since last Impalong and might have a go at destroying your favorite heirloom sword with a failed Flaming Aura cast.

I believe there's peat on the way down to Festival Cove, so we'll stop to fill up the cart.

This may be slightly self indulgent but was thinking that as this will be my last Impalong would it be possible to get a party together during the 2 weeks to build an Impalong colossus in a garden where we plant signs around it with all the names of people who attended, would make a great memorial.

If you're all up for it, and it happens fast, we could even have an entire army of Colossi before the 2 weeks are over hint hint at Raycg
