Collect Rocks Day: September 16th

Unread post by JazzyCat » Thu Sep 01, 2011 6:43 pm

There are so many cool holidays that are often overlooked in September. This year we want to make sure that Collect Rocks Day is celebrated in style. What a great excuse to have a chat event!

We will host another 24 hour event on Friday, September 16th. The event will be from intermission to intermission so that as many people as possible can attend. We are aware that by having 24 hour events, there are some times where there may be only 1 or 2 people in chat. However, by extending the hours of the event, more people are able to arrange at least a small bit of time to be able to drop in.

As always, remember that anyone may host games and give aways.

Happy Rock Collecting!!!!!!

Also, anyone that attends chat in that 24 hour period (cept devs n mods) will be put it to a draw to win an amazing ROCK-ing horse, which will be drawn just after official event closing time ( re above post) :wink:

Rock packs, miner packs and rock/paper/scissors will be a big part of the day too methinks....... :shock:

Collecting rocks? Seriously!? Oh well, I'll at least try to be there to win the "ROCK-ing" horse.
