HUMBUG!

[PrinceCaspian]

Wow, we got Xmas gifts really early this year!

And its the same stuff as last year. The exact same. What a GYP!

Then again, it's only the first day of December. Who knows, the devs may have something more cooked up for us yet...

[Sir William]

I don't know about anyone else but I love the fact that I got 5 soulstone frags for free.

[Rex]

And its the same stuff as last year. The exact same. What a GYP!

Good grief Caspian....just be happy we got anything, ya damn grinch.

[PrinceCaspian]

ya damn grinch.

The PAS aren't upset with the gifts EA's bringing,
they're not sad at all -- they're actually singing!
The sing without bless deeds! They sing without tokens!
The sing without eggnog! The sing without bokkens!

[To the tune of "You're A Mean One, Mister Grinch"]

You're a mean one, Prince Caspian.
You really are a bum!
You're like losing conn in the middle of Kaldun, Prince Caspiaaaan!

You're about as likeable as a n00b luring Rend to the entrance.... of The Labrynnnnth....

You're a rotter, Prince Caspian!
You really are teh $u(|<!
You're like never getting arties despite 1200 luck, Prince Caspiaaaan!

You're as fun as going to fight travesty wearing Deamon Bone armor... using a worn down shepard crook!

(Instrumental break)

You're a monster, Prince Caspian!
You stink, stunk and stank!
You're like getting PKed with no insurance in the bank, Prince Caspiaaan!

You're about as pleasant as waiting for an IDOC to fall for the seventh straight hour, while some dumb newbie is plaguing you with questions, while a pack of ZOGs appear... on the screeeeeeeen....

[Rex]

LMFAO!!!!

That song rocked, Caspian.

The Holiday Season Begins!
Britannia News Network just received this communication from the Council of Mages:

"The abnormally high concentration of blackrock near the surface appears to have caused a temporal wave… we are receiving reports of massive cases of deja-vu, dizziness, and, in extreme cases, even items reappearing where they were approximately one year ago."

The Council goes on to say that there should be no long-term effects from this freak occurrence[/b], and that any items that have appeared are perfectly normal and safe to use and enjoy. [b]The Council also believes that this will have no impact on the normal holiday festivities and this year’s holiday gifts will be distributed as normal. This unusual event marks the official beginning of the holiday season, as citizens all over Sosaria take their holiday trees and wreaths out of storage for display. This year, it appears, everyone will have just a few more toys to play with round the tree. This is the BNN, wishing everyone a happy holiday season.

[Sir William]

So we are getting 2 Xmas gifts COOL.

I was woundering why my box said 2005 Xmas gift

[PrinceCaspian]

Christmas gifts are so hit-and-miss.

The tokens have been, IMHO, the biggest bonanza. They instantly were worth a bunch, and still are.

However, when the holiday busts came out, I made it a point to gain a massive collection. I had like a hundred of each color (except white, natch).

Recently, I sold off a ton of them. How much, you ask? A measley 5k a piece. It was a Christmas rare, and was never generated again, but the fact is -- nobody liked these. The pastels looked dumb. I got stuck with chests and chests of busts that I still can barely GIVE away.

[Rex]

Some bless deeds would be nice for christmas!

[Sir William]

No joke there. Bless Deeds would be awsome or even some Cursed to Blessed Deeds would be even better

[Tracy]

Uncurse deeds would be nice...just remove the curse so you can at least insure it.

[Sir William]

*Looks at cursed orny* Ya being able to insure it would be awsome

[Ciara]

Add Ciara to the humbug list.

BAH HUMBUG.

The reindeer deeds even say last year, 2005.

I can open a christmas tree lot with all my trees.

[Dralagon]

*Whispers softly* psssst Ciara,
ummm last year was 2005 not 1995.

[PrinceCaspian]

*Whispers softly* psssst Ciara,

LOL, yep. I would be a bit suspicious of any UO Christmas Item issued in 1995...
