Subj: Player Appreciation Month

Did you know that April is Player Appreciation Month? Well, it is! As a
thank you to the playerbase, there will be a 10% increase in gold from
gold drops from now until April 15, and from April 16 though the end of
the month, there will be a 10% experience bonus.

Further, if you purchase credits this month, you will get dingbats! Yes,
you heard me! Dingbats! This is a new special promotion wherein buying a
certain amount of credits during the month, you will also receive some
new currency called dingbats. Dingbats can be used to purchase special
artifacts from a lovely gentleman named Jeremiah Gryphta. For more
information, see HELP DINGBATS.

I personally think that we are lucky enough to have the strongest, most
dedicated and certainly most enthusiastic players around (ah, yes, and
the most attractive). You are the breath and pulse of Lusternia, and
thus Lusternia lives and thrives! It is a true pleasure and privilege to
serve you and so thank you once again!

Penned by My hand on the 6th of Kiani, in the year 203 CE.

The suspicion of the players about this was funny, even after the OOC announce saying otherwise.

This might actually make me buy credits ohmy.gif
Sarrasri2008-04-02 00:22:04
I want all the dolls! But I don't really buy credits so probably won't get any. sad.gif But good stuff! This is really neat.

The cool thing is that the artifacts are all unique for the duration of April. They won't appear in the regular artifact shops somewhere later down the line, guaranteeing that whatever you get will be pretty rare and novel.

I am soo happy I worked two of the easter public holidays happy.gif

They change every promo, or are dingbats a one time thing. Or will the same stuff appear every April?
Ildaudid2008-04-02 00:26:45
And of course it is still April 1st, so not falling for it 3 times in a day.

I don't normally buy credits either but I need to have that Nifilhema doll. I feel that without it my gaming experience will not be full! ohyeah.gif My credit card's fate has been sealed the moment I saw Enlil playing around with it a while ago (he threatened us with the Elohora one too, the little devil! ). I don't even mind that everyone will have the dolls probably, since they're fairly 'cheap', I still need it! dazed.gif

I get a feeling it's like... there will always be dingbats during the promo times. Just what you can buy with them will differ each promotion. Right? huh.gif

Dingbats will only show up for this particular kind of promo, and we will change out some or all of the wares in Jeremiah's wagon for the next time around to guarantee their rarity.

I had a fun conversation, double checking that he wasn't going to "go back home" at the end of the month smile.gif

Very nice. My credit card number entering fingers are itching chin.gif

damn, the artifact I want (scarecrow hat) requires 1000 credits.

I have no idea what I would do with 1000 credits (sigh)

That scarecrow hat is so much more powerfull then anything else on that list... and so much more universally usefull.

Wierd.

I don't really understand the point of the scarecrow hat. What is it useful for? Influencing charity without having to change clothes?

ETA: Ahh, I understand now. I talked to him and he answered my question. That would be useful!

Please say the sale will be extended to May 15th? *hope*
