This is the second year of Platypusapalooza, hosted by the ESP Alliance (http://www.espguild.com) and we are pulling out all the stops to make sure that we top last year's event.

What The Heck Is This?

The Platypusapalooza event first came into being in 2011 when members of the ESP Alliance were trying to come up with an appropriate 'arrival of Spring' type event to fill the gap between Canthan New Year and the ESP Anniversary Party. Given the fact that we hold so much respect for the noble Platypus (don't judge us!) this event evolved into Platypusapalooza! and now occurs every year on the Saturday before Easter in Embark Beach International D1.

This year Platypusapalooza falls on April 7th and shall begin at 4pm central (5pm eastern/2pm pacific/9pm gmt) and shall last until all of the planned events have been completed.

Ok, So You Caught My Interest. What Happens Here?

I am glad that you asked! Similar to last year, we are hosting a wide variety of events that cater to all interests. Be prepared to strut your stuff in our 'Best Beach Body' Contest, test your wile in our scavenger hunt, flex your brain in our trivia contest, and take out your aggression in our pvp tournament. Specific details for all activities shall be released the week before the event.

Doesn't Sound Too Bad, But What is in it For Me?

We have gone to great lengths to ensure that this is worth while for everyone who attends. Prizes include, but are not limited to:

Q9 Obsidan Blade (plus other rare/desirable weapons)
Rare/Unique Undedicated Minipets
Multiple HoM Weapons
An Aion Wing Code
A Free Character Art Commission
Many, Many zkeys, zcoins, elite tomes, and Other HoM Enhacing Goodies
The Chance to be Queen/King Platypus for a Day
A Plushie Platypus of Your Very Own
And much more, further details will be provided in the week prior to the event

Coolness, Where Can I Find Out More Info?

I will update this post with further details as they unfold. You may also check our guild forums at http://www.espguild.com and/or contact me directly if you have any questions about this community event.

Thank you all, and we look forward to seeing you there!
