Due to unforeseen circumstances, I've had to cancel this event. Apologies.

On the 31st of January, I will be hosting a Candlemas feast at L'Amore in Ballo, beginning at 1900.

This feast is in celebration of the passing of Winter and make way for Spring.

All are invited to join us. Please wear something white.

I will need seating for 500 Goons. What is it with silly people and the 'everyone's invited.' I'm going to wonder around G-0 and find every child molester, rapist, murderer and people that talk in holo theatres and bring them along too.

Okay, you are not invited. Satisfied?

I would post an animated image of a Brutor pulling up a chair and declaring that this is going to be an enjoyable experience, but I feel it would be removed by CCL.

So, I'll simply state:

"This is going to be good."

Thanks for once again proving that all the negative perceptions that people have of Goons are correct. Now go back to your hole and worship your master Mittens.

When the world is running down, you make the best of what's still around.

Yes, good. Now if you could just use the same logic that got you there and apply it to other capsuleers and groups.

You're just bitter because years ago, I removed you from a venue I once owned. Go troll elsewhere, Alizabeth. It's very unbecoming of you and makes the Goons look very bad.....oh wait, they do that themselves. Have a lovely day, sweetheart.

There she goes again thinking the population at large gives a damn. We, and your leaders, are laughing at you. Stay relevant Vea, stay relevant.

I can't believe I'm saying this - but she did have a point. This isn't the first time Raske has been criticized for her carefree open-door policies.

On the other hand, I don't recall there being many incidents at any of her events, open-door or not. I've been waiting for someone to crash one and read about it.

Eh. Can't really blame her for having standards when it comes to the quality of her guests, myself. One such standard likely being a minimum level of mental function that allows for social interaction on a level greater than that of a concussed, drunken gorilla.

Fun fact - there are non-toxic hypoallergenic dyes that can be dispersed over a wide area and will turn the skin of everybody in that area a bright shade of purple for a couple of weeks. These dyes can safely and effectively be delivered via airburst orbit-to-atmo ChemWar missile. The same goes for a rather interesting gene-tailored bacterium that needs only seconds to consume the most common polymers and organic fibers found in modern clothing without attacking human hair or tissues.

The panic and confusion as the security sensors declare an incoming orbital bombardment would just be an added bonus to the sufficiently malicious prankster who performed this stunt.

You know, for the practical joker with a multi-million ISK budget.

Not that I would ever be so cruel you understand. I just take the existence of these things as a good indicator of why it's best to hold large public functions aboard a station where the environment and security systems are more secure.

I'm confused. You're upset because I haven't had any incidents at my events?

Also, Stitcher, you realize my venue IS aboard a station?

I am not upset, no.

I am simply expecting some sort of troublemaker such as Stitcher there to cause a big mess at an open door event, because that is what those types of people do.

Bear in mind that expectation is not the same as desire or intention.


Now... what is Candlemas?

Candlemas, also known by the name Imbolc, is the celebration of winter ending and the coming of spring. The festival basically encourages us to let go of the past and to look to the future, clearing out the old, making both outer and inner space for new beginnings. A rebirth, if you will.

We also celebrate the Goddess of Fire, Home, and Hearth.

Also, I was reminded of something. If you feel uncomfortable attending in person, L'Amore is equipped with holo projectors. In addition, I run a very secure venue. Guests are subject to weapon checks and I have security guards on staff.
