|.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*.|
| |
| During December 16 and January 3 the Wheel-Of-Fun was |
| spun a total of 4.045 times. This is about a thousand |
| spins less than last year's record, most likely mainly |
| due to the new 18 hours age requirement. |
| |
| The legendary flaming black broadsword was again part of |
| the Wheel-Of-Fun, and six different players were lucky |
| enough to win one. |
| |
| 11 players tried to harass Julio and were sternly |
| warned for their poor yule spirits. None of them harassed |
| Julio again, so, no players (except last year's cheater) |
| were banned from the wheel this year. |
| |
| The 'Dirtbag of the Year'-award goes to Raxton who was |
| rude enough to throw manure at poor Julio. The |
| retaliation by the event team was swift, which turned |
| Raxton into a stinking pile of dirt. |
| |
| This year's competition to decide who is the luckiest |
| person in Genesis ended with a 9-point tie between Doimli, |
| Montagu, and Thoru. However, the event is about deciding |
| who is the luckiest PERSON, not people, so there can only |
| be one winner. |
| |
| And, what better way to break the tie than with a coin |
| toss based purely on LUCK? The clever gnomes provided the |
| event team with a special three-sided coin (yes it looks |
| totally weird). The coin was tossed with one of the |
| winners present, together with wizards Cherek, Varian, and |
| Carnak as witnesses. |
| |
| Here's a short transcript of the toss. |
| |

| > |
| > toss coin |
| > You toss the coin in the air, and when gravity pulls it |
| > back to the ground it lands with the side reading |
| > 'Montagu' facing up. |
| |
| Whaaat??! Again?! Yes! He won again! The odds of the same |
| person winning an event based completely on random chance |
| two years in a row is... astronomical, but somehow it |
| happened again. Montagu TRULY is the luckiest person in |
| the realms. |
| |
| This year's winning score of 9 points was quite far |
| beyond his 13-point score last year (maybe the luck is |
| running out?), but the winnings are still quite |
| impressive. |

| Rewards |
| |
|.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*:._.:*~*.|
| |
| As the the winner of this mini event Montagu will be |
| awarded with the title "The Lucky One", a title that will |
| last for 1 year. Or rather, one MORE year since he |
| already has that title. He will also receive a special |
| lucky coin that he may keep for 30 days. What that one |
| does is for Montagu to find out, of course, as he won last |
| year too it probably won't be that big of a big mystery |
| for him... |
| |
| You may claim your rewards in the Arch of Events office |
| in the Tower of Re... |
| |
| Wait, why am I telling you this? You know how it works. |
| |
| As mentioned in the announcement there will be no other |
| rewards for this event, as there were no effort involved |
| other than visiting Sparkle once each day. Besides, most |
| of those who finished in the top have received plenty of |
| rewards from the wheel already! |
| |

| |
| Yule Season is now officially over in Sparkle. If you have |
| any feedback on this event, please <mail aoe> from any |
| post office. |
| |
| Cherek, Julio and the AoE team hope you had fun! |
