Rucan picks up his quarter staff, "This might be fun! Maybe dwarfs can not run as fast as others, but, then again,  they might hit back a bunch harder." :-\

I'll refrain from making jokes about the red haired dwarf avatar, and about being "beaten like a red headed step-son."

A pity I could not attend most parts of this huge event... thanks for your dedication to plan, prepare and run the festival, all of this takes some mighty effort.

Maybe you want to post the wonderful riddles you had for the treasure hunt, along with a summary of the actual locations? Also, I think the posters with the detailed game rules were very nice, so you may want to put them here as well, in case people look back at the event in a few months or years they can say "wow, this was a cool festival" ;)

A big thank you and congratulations to all who were involved organizing the event!
And also thanks for the players who attended and made this very nice RP atmosphere.

It's a real pity that my RL decided to keep me very busy just that weekend. I'm happy for each moment I could attend this event that was much fun every single moment.
And if someone writes a book about the creative games (including the ooc rules), my char would be as eager to buy it as the player  ;)

I hope this will be done again and I'm more than willing to help as much as possible with my limited time.

It was indeed a great event, and many players attended on both days. Thank you Hammers for organizing this event, I really enjoyed it!

I took quite some screenshots during the event, but not all of them came out as good as I expected them to be. Here are a few to help those who were there reminiscent, and make the ones who missed it repent:


(https://frupic.frubar.net/shots/39053.jpg)
A lot of people gathered for the first day of the event. Lots of hammers, but many friends as well, came together to eat, drink, play games and talk.

(https://frupic.frubar.net/shots/39054.jpg)
The second day was devoted to Grampus. The guild was gathered on the banks of Irifon to honor his passing. Many friends were also in attendance.

(https://frupic.frubar.net/shots/39055.jpg)
An eulogy was read in his honor, as people recalled the comrade and friend he was.

(https://frupic.frubar.net/shots/39056.jpg)
Everyone descended by the water as his pyre was lit. His was a full life, and his passage from this realm will be remembered.

(https://frupic.frubar.net/shots/39057.jpg)
After the funeral, a drink was in order to help drown the sorrow. The Broken Barrel reopened its doors to host everyone looking for sympathy and a beer.

(https://frupic.frubar.net/shots/39058.jpg)
Migg was too overcome with emotions to handle his two stiff beers. With a little help from his friends however he managed to chop enough wood and still remain all in one piece.

This was a great event, and I was both honored and delighted to be a part of it. If anyone has more screenshots to share, please post them on the forum.
