New Event! Genesis Advent Calendar??!

Esteemed fellow Genesis enthusiasts,

Have you ever noticed how holidays have grown less and less about beloved
family traditions, faith in whatever Pantheon of Gods you choose to
worship, and good cheer? Instead, it is all about merchandise and branding
for the sake of commerce!

Well ... Genesis is getting in on THAT action thanks to me losing a very
unfortunate bet recently with this strange little kender fellow who,
along with his wife, tricked me into some rather late-night card games
(which I had never heard of before, and I think they printed both the
cards AND the rules themselves!) that I don't think I really had any
hope of understanding, let alone winning.

And what happens when the Genesis Admin loses a bet with a Kender? Well,
I guess we're all about to find out. 

This guy (his name is Agnus) has set up a shop on the Village Green where
he is going to start offering stuff for you to buy on December 1st. That
is one week from today. The flagship item in his shop is this strange
device called an "Advent Calendar." I'm not really too sure about them,
but according to Agnus they are ALL THE RAGE. 

Sooooo .... prepare yourselves for ....

                    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                    SPECIAL EVENT: Genesis Advent 2021!
                    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  * Event begins: Midnight (0:00:00) on December 1st.
  * Event ends  : Midnight (0:00:00) on December 26th.

  * Each day, you get to open the next door on your Advent Calendar. What
    does this mean? WHO KNOWS.

  * Special Holiday Shop! You get to buy fun holiday gear that, I guess,
    will somehow be used in the event.

  * What the heck is this event even about? On December 1st, you'll have
    to show up and find out! (hint, this Kender is definitely going to
    make out like a friggin' bandit. *grumble*)

  * Complete each day's task for quest-exp!

  * Compete for end-of-event rewards!

  * Pay an arm-and-a-leg to greedy Kender husband-wife hoodwinkers of
    your unsuspecting Archwizard of Events!

The Village Green has already been taken over by their ridiculous shop. I
guess you can go check it out, but this thing isn't starting yet despite
them insisting that something called a "black Friday" sale was the most
important day of the year. I told them too bad and offered to introduce
them to the Mordor "Black Friday" tradition (every Friday is Black Friday
in Mordor.)

They agreed to wait.

Happy Holidays!
G.

Mmmmmm ... pie ...
