As for the interview, Xotche of Meade is very used to interviews and before I knew it,answered my questions before I could even ask them.

Xotche of Meade
"1. to answer them ahead of time =D
I use to belong to a guild of multishard festival nuts who
hosted events like this so No this is not my first Festival, I have hosted several over the past
years and gone multishard the last 3 years
2. We anticipate about 75- 125 participants this
festival
3. We will be hosting events on both faccets Felluca and Trammel Moonglow
4.WE are
fortunate to have some wonderful guilds and close knit role playing towns to support our events"

Xotche of Meade
"my guild TDA (The Dark Allience, is very very old they go back to the old Battle Net days of Diablo
hmm 9 - 10 years now) will be hosting the Easter Egg Hunt, it is a simple event meant for any age
player and level of skill
We are still seeking contributions of gold for prizes and colored fish
nets, 100 colored ingots for beads, ice white cloth for sashes and baskets"

Xotche of Meade
"Why do we banana peel tossing, UO addicts host such large free shard events,(btw, they are a pain
in the keaster to organize) you ask?

Well after this many years of playing and changing/
adapting to UO, gold holds no luster, skill gain is no longer a goal, its the companionship and
constant comic relief of the game style that keeps us engrossed."


Lord DarkSaber
"What has been the most exciting or
fun event that you've hosted or particpated in?"

Xotche of Meade
"believe it or not
COW TIPPING!

You have any idea how many old vets and new players never knew
that cows tip over? Now imagine their laughter when they are forced to drink 5 bottles of booze
and race each to knock over some poor bovine! *hic*

I have never laughed so much over an
event then that one. You can almost see the tears roll from some of these folks behind their
monitors. =D"

Xotche of Meade
"I enjoy 'white elephant' sales where it's silly fun t hings to sell, but indepth auctions for a
zillion dollars and folks getting haughty like 12 years is just too complicated for an event style
game."

Xotche of Meade
"my least favorite?
Auctions and dart tossing"

Lord DarkSaber
"as of now do you know any of the the events that are
going to be part of the festival?"


Xotche of Meade
"all the events are posted so far on Chessy stratics"
