Rofl... 2 pages and half of the comments are whine. I shouldn't be suprised... but I'm actually
There are still plenty of players who will enjoy the festival. As usual.

"Same mask again" ftw.

So, Shing Yea Monastery will be the headquaters to buy some Party Points?
Not much one could do to prepare than get some gold for the tickets and all characters to the island I guess ^^

The only festival that has repeat hats is Canthan New Year. For some reason people always get the two mixed up.

"AWESOME" IMO. Personal tastes will vary.

But you will find out soon enough.

Really hoping that "soon enough" translates to "tonight".

Yeah, a few centuries of Christmas is just a real drag, man :P I mean, getting presents is SUCH a chore.

I'm super excited for the fest. I love the in game holidays

How does one go about raising their lucky title in this? My family is actually going to be home for the coming weekend so for once I'll be able to try it out.

And what do people mean when they talk about afking in rings?

I suspect someone was making a shot a tthe Canthan new Year mask offerings... without recalling that there's a reason the mask is the same for that every year.

Oh, I've got that just from AFK death levelling for LDoA.

(And yes, I know that's not your actual handle, but I just couldn't leave your actual handle even in a quotation, so I turned it into something neutral rather than simply deleting the "Dont".)

Hm... what could it be...? Kisu's mask? Everyone with a mask of Kisu?
Margonite/Abaddon Mask? Everyone with 6 eyes?
Saltspray dragon mask? Everyone with a wicked smile and wiskers?

Oh, I know! I know! Lantern mask! Just like the pumpkin, but with a paper lantern instead a pumpkin, XD.

I'm looking forward to the festival. Time to afk some rings while I sleep and then build my stash of sweets and fireworks during the day. I'm also looking forward to the minigame during the finale. Not quite sure why I find that so fun. =)
