Great pictures, everyone, and what a great perspective, adi, how wonderful to see this
all from above ...

I've posted already yesterday after Alien's part about my excitement, how I was really
stunned and positively overwhelmed about this event being organized so carefully and
at a breathtaking pace and by all the magic being applied to the whole experience for
us all and above all, of course, the wondrous appearance of so many old and new friends
and fellow explorers who sensed and heeded the call from within and made this day such
a special gift ...

So, I thank you all again, our precious Messengers and precious Magicians aka the 'Grey Hats'
and all our awesome, sensational D'niJs and all else involved, all the diligent, silent helpers,
Angels and Elves etc... I'd like to say Thumbs up! and 'Mission accomplished'...

Now, let's watch the CAVCON Meter and see the level rise, which, I'm very certain, we'll get
to see very soon ...

I also have some pictures for you ...

Sometimes we disappeared magically with only our sparklies left ...

Only one time could I catch a glimpse of the Bahro (which was generously left with us by Branan being away that
evening) who welcomed us when linking in and was looking after us and protecting our 'fun space' while flying by
every now and then ...

Yeah!!! Those are our heroes ... our great Messengers, always busy to be of help and to watch out that there was
noone left out or left behind with information, food stuff, loving kindness etc...

Thanks adi Personally, i was a bit disappointed in myself because i kept forgetting words haha, and as well my voice was wearing out by the end... But i'm definitely up for doing it again for future parties!! And maybe more than one appearance

Anyway, I hope you aren't bootlegging all the recordings you made!!! And if you are... i expect royalty cheques on a weekly basis

Definitely one of the best times I've ever had in URU. It was great seeing everyone who was able to make it. I can still hear our party echo throughout the cavern. Kudos to everyone involved in making this happen. Here's to CAVCON 5! Wish I could have gotten more pictures, but here's some of the better ones.

Ok, here's the pics:

I believe that's Leonardo stalling in the air.

Showing off the light changes.

Now just imagine that, except ten times faster!

Some line dancing after the restart.

The final breakdown!

And thanks to whoever moved the arch right next to us on the Rooftop. I didn't get a picture of it but it was pretty sweet.

Awesome party guys. I had the best time I've ever had in Uru at this party. Thank you to Leonardo and the GoMe guys (And gals), you all did a wonderful job setting this up for us. Thanks to the Greyhats for setting up the Rooftop for us; it was a blast. (Now I'm looking forward to a Cleft Party! ) And special thanks to the D'niJ's for the super awesome music (Some of which I had never heard before.). I'll be singing American Pie in my head for a week! Sometime soon (Maybe later today, maybe Monday) I'll post some pictures and/or chatlogs. And extra special thanks to everyone who participated in A RAG MAN, you guys are awesome for solving that in 30 minutes!

P.S. - YES! Make this an annual party. Just not in May because that's when ADBMM is.

First of all, thank you GoMe for allowing me to be a part of this, and thank you all courageous explorers who didn't leave the party while I was being a part of this! ^^

Shame the time difference didn't allow me to enjoy all of Lord Chaos and Donahoo's music and none at all from Ace. But I've had such an amaaazing time attending the rest of it! So again, THANK YOU GoMe, THANK YOU Grey Hats (and more THANK YOU for taking me to a couple special places XD), THANK YOU Dni'J's, THANK YOU all fellow explorers that made this possible! We've proven this community is still alive and kicking *bleep* and it's so wonderful to be a part of it! \^__^/ Hope the $$$ numbers say so as well. XD

I'd like to suggest keeping this as an annual event -more or less- and I know a lot of you agree. Let's be there again, all together!

[quote="janaba1"]It was great to meet you again, nvr2old, and all the old friends whom are very rarely
to be seen in these days, if at all ... Thanks for coming and lighten everybody's day ...

In general is this a very extra special and extraordinary experience to have, just to
link into 'The Hood of Illusions' and being immediately welcomed with two messages,
which are directing one to the 'linking/teleportation station' where you will be magically
linked to the rooftop in Ae'gura after a few seconds and then being greeted by a Bahro
when arriving at the linkin' spot ... This alone is worth the journey haha ...

Wow!!! And then you're being surprised by so many great people and old friends ... it was
quite a crowd (~20-30) in the afternoon, my time lol, which is the early morning resp. before
noon time in the States etc...

And awesome music straight and without exception, dearest Alien, thanks a lot ...

Many thanks to the so called and awesome 'Gray Hats' and the Guild of Messengers team
who organized this at the speed of light and made all this possible and such a delight for
everybody which nobody will forget for a long time ... See you all maybe later again ... /wave ... [/quote]

Thanks Janaba, it was a pleasure seeing you again, actually I go in every day and drop my pellets and then wander over to the city to see who is in that I know. It was fun last night even after the server restart and we was all outside the egg room until everyone dropped into a void.
Was great to see old friends and new ones there. Just shows if something happens in the game we will be there in force.

I see... Thank you for the extra effort on writing this bot. Especially at short notice. I think this wasn't in the original plan...

The Party was awesome! It has really been a privilege to be able to participate in it, since it was such an unique and special event. I was there on three different occasions (Thursday night /European Time/, shortly on Friday morning, Friday evening & night until the Server Reboot) and it has been cool to have a party permanently going on during the day so we could just pass by in any moment

I am only sorry I missed Alien's part, but I was working in the afternoon so I couldn't make it.

I am joining Max in a huge THANK YOU to all of you who made it possible, Messengers, Grey Hats, DniJs, volunteers, everyone!
/clap /cheer

A Big, BIG >Thank You< to all and everyone for making this into a special and memorable event. It was awesome to take part in this amazing Party of all Parties!

Also a Big Thank You on behalf of Guild of Sleepers to let us be a part off this event. I'd say it was well worth every effort of it! We'll put up a brief summary of our Quiz on the GoSleep Forum within a few days ... MOULa & Open Source/Cyan's MOULa Server ..

Also NOTE .. If You did not get enough .. There's gonna be a chance to Party anew quite soon!!! Great, eyh?
At our "Impromptu Party" in the Guild Of Sleepers Hood on the 26th at 13:00 KI. That's Next Wednesday!

Hope to see You all there again!

I don't know who to contact among the "Grey Hats," so I'll ask here: Are there any plans to leave the link in place from the Illusions 'hood to the Rooftop?

Probably not, as that required running a spare computer for the bot .

If I ever get around to writing a linking-bot that doesn't require running inside an Uru client, it's a possibility. No promises, though.

Here are my pictures from the party in a zipped folder:

Clicky!

Due to the fact that there are a lot, at high quality/resolution, they would be too big to post here unlike the KI images.[/url]

I'd like to thank the GoMe, Grey Hats, Dni'Js once again for the fantastic party.

I'd also like to upload a couple photos showing the crowd and effects provided by the Grey Hats.

You can see the smoke and effects of Phil's fall in the latter.

The lag got pretty severe for me when we had around 55 people on the rooftop, but hey, "You know it’s a good party when people have a hard time finding themselves."
