What a great idea - just wish I had seen it in time to donate!

Question - how does the 'giving' work exactly? You chose people in local at random? Or people make their requests in local (that will be a fast moving channel lol)? Or?

Anyway Merry Christmas to all - should be fun!

Thanks and I hope you're able to join us.
Yes, local should be booming tonight with people having fun and enjoying the Christmas Spirit, and if so, then that will mean I've done my job. :)


the give away will be done by myself and my helpers through trade windows in station, we will also be assigning contracts for the remaining fit ships to random people after the "Last Man/Woman Battle" (Fit ship) prizes are selected by the winners.
we may also be asking some EvE trivia questions and assigning the contracts to people based on who answers first/correctly in the channel

Those contracts for the remaining fit ships will be courier contract for 0 collateral and 0 pay and the recipients of those need to just fail the contract then open their present. :)

This... was the greastest experience I ever had in Eve. I battled rookie ships in a royal rumble... I was so happy. Then I answered trivia. If I ever quit Eve, I'll resub just for the month of December to do this again.

I beat the guys above me up in an IBIS and stayed alive.
They did as well, but it sounds better if I leave that part out.
The 20 man fleet was fun, the presents were good, and I got invited to a room to talk about my feelings of inadequacy as a man and ended up bedding the channel host.
So it was a good time.

Amazing event. So often we see the dark side of people shine through capsuleers do to the ambiguity and space immortality that this game offers. The common word of advice you hear around the universe is to always be polite but never nice, and come the 26th we will all hold to that. It's fair to say that this event didn't make anyone rich in isk, but I think a lot of us came for a hand out (i did). However after throwing snowballs at nightmares getting beat in star trek trivia by Crimson Seeker, but getting a break for learning to abbreviate :P, I found myself having a great time. Maybe, just maybe this event showed we could use our ambiguity and space immortality for something other then our darker purposes. Maybe for a hour or two the sandbox was not about tearing down other peeps castles but just having a good time with your fellow capsuleer stranger or no in the middle of Hek.

Santa, just wanted to express my gratitude and thanks. This event was over the top and very fun. I won several excellent prizes including a fully fit T2 Crow, and a Caldari Navy Hookbill, among other things. The idea of this is a fresh thing from the past and it embodies the idea of true Christmas spirit. For one day just about everyone wasn't a grinch, which is hard to find in EVE, Fork that was naughty of you podding Santa but I was lucky enough to grab the corpse and return it for an awesome gift. I even got in on the KM for Santa's Ibis, which was great.
Here's to a great Christmas to everyone who celebrates it and thanks again for making my Christmas in EVE that much better.
