Festival FAQ

Can I come?/ Who's invited? - Everyone! Be there!

What is this? Where is this? - Each and all of the deer of the Endless Forest are HEREBY cordially invited to the fourth annual Festival of Lights, our traditional New Year's Eve celebration to carry the light of the old year into the new. We'll commune around and about the Playground and give candle antlers (candtlers?) to every deer who passes by. Every hour, on the hour, we will all dance in celebration as midnight passes in each time zone. Don't forget to stop by the Twin Gods Hill to pay your respects and celebrate!

When is it?/ What time is that where I live?: The unofficial start will be 11:59PM GMT and will run until people stop showing up sometime in 2013.
Don't think you've missed out if you can't make the start time, as deer from every timezone should be popping in to ring in their respective New Years!

I keep losing connection too, so I've signed out, but it was fun! I got logged out once in the middle of dancing with everyone and another deer (I don't know who you were!) was kind enough to give me 'candtlers' again when I reappeared. c: Sorry if Fieran's random mooing alarmed anyone, by the way. I leant on the wrong button. I meant to bow. XD
