How about velious themed events, since it is 8 days away? What they used to do on live was have events leading up to a expansion that would "sell" the expansion, featuring content that in some way related to it's opening. Velious is generally dragon, giant, or dwarf oriented so i'd say include those in a pve event.

Also i think pvp battles are generally good, sirkens " thursday night fights" seemed neat to me, official small scale battles among a populace that often talks more then they fight. You could reward players with surname titles, or maybe just rare items such as bcg, rbg, T-staff, something decent and worth the time

If I started preparing a month ago, I might have been able to convince someone to start working on it.

I am definitely leaning towards something regular, since if it's a established thing I won't have to get approval each an every time. I wouldn't expect anything from me before Velious though, I want to be able to set things up right and not have it just fizzle out after two weeks.

I don't see the problem with offering DE masks as rewards, players like events but an award like that isn't game breaking and it will make players wanna be apart of it, also word of mouth will bring more players back to red.

I'm in the middle. They're nice, but giving out too many makes it too trivial. I'd like to be able to do these things independently anyways.

Right now I am leaning towards a monthly event. That way I have enough time to set up variety between them, establish brackets, and possibly collect a player funded prize pool.

Having a monthly thing is my favorite suggestion here so far.

Anything, as long as it is recurring would be awesome!

EQ is one of those things where its like i feel 90% of the players are like, 'i missed it again?!' while 10% are like, that was a fun event last year!

anything monthly would be awesome!

Ill still hurt myself irl if you give me a de mask tho so that option is on the table.

I mean a ton were already given out, what's another 50 masks going to matter? Tons of players came over after classic. Another idea is VP weapons, those weapons are rotting with most guilds and wont be viable weapons come velious, like i said most players don't wanna do events without a chance of some type of award.

Unless this is given to naked people competing, or find a balanced way to do it so most people have a shot, it matters because its basically a pixel shower for people who already have an edge.

Halloween event of 2001 was cool because it was so chaotic, guilds competed for loot but at the same time naked newbs could score some loot too. There was something for everybody.

Unironic idea:

Without announcing anything, summon the entire server to the Gorge of King Xorbb about 5 hours after Velious gets released.

why not permaban Sektor and then have a huge party with every EverQuest NPC and PC, with lots of food and music and a huge cake (baked by Redgrocer)?
