Yes, it was cancelled because of the low attendance. Even if there would have been enough hiders (there were 3 at most, since some hiders left before other hiders joined), there were certainly not enough seekers, and I do not think that telling everybody in the game about the event (like Drey would have done) would have helped much (I shouted in the plaza some times, with little avail).
But I would like to thank those who were there at some time, and were willing to be a hider or help me organize: Gag, Odessa, Thorin and Drey.

These events seem to work more if they are spontanious.. because if you plan something, people just.. fail to turn up.
That might be true. But I would rather have a good organized event, and that requires some preparation. If you do not coordinate the hiding places in advance, you may end up with hiding places that the seekers cannot reach, hiding places that are way too close to each other and hiding places that are too far away...
I might think about rescheduling the event, but in that case I would like some input by all of you how we can get more people to participate: what would be a better time, and perhaps some changes in the setup and organization.
Also it would be better if it would be organized by a team of people, instead of mainly myself. Odessa offered me help allready (thank you Odessa), and I know perhaps one or two other players. It would be even better to organize it with the help of a guild, like the Exporers, who seem to be interested in this hide and seek
Also some more Game Masters would be nice. Just a couple of ideas...
So if you would like this event to be held in some other time, please tell so in this thread, and perhaps post some ideas about it.
