Flight Rising Discussion

[b]edit: Everything is now live in the hub thread, so I'll be moving there folks! Chances are I won't see any more posts here, so please join me in the party thread here: [/b]http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/frd/1820061 So, many of you from the April 2014 registration window recall that we had a sort of celebration or party last year for our anniversary, primarily put together by the wonderful @LostUmbreon with some help. There was a raffle, a special accent designed, a swap of dragons bred from our progens (Gen 2 swap) and some other miscellaneous fun. Lost was overwhelmed by the amount of work involved in running the whole thing, especially the raffle, so I'm trying to step up and do some of the organization. I plan on running the Gen 2 Swap (I'll set up the thread early with the dates you need to breed your gen one progens by to hatch on the right dates) myself, but I am not capable of organizing a raffle or other events myself. [b][Size=5]Raffle is live! [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/1808705/1]See it here![/url][/size][/b] [s]If anyone would be comfortable running a raffle for that week's events, feel free to do so, I can put a link here and in the hub thread for that week, to show everyone as well if you would like. Please contact LostUmbreon for any raffle donations as they have graciously stepped up to host the raffle, albeit with more assistants to help this year =) I'll post a link to the thread next month when it goes up![/s] [s]I personally love the accent we put together last year, so I personally am not interested in another one (plus I'm trying to save gems! ;_; ) but if there is enough drive for one, feel free to set up a thread for an April Reg accent and let me know, I'll also link to that to get the word out! Accent is being reprinted! LostUmbreon is managing the funds for the accents, please see details in their post on [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/frd/1773203/12]this page[/url] it costs 350 gems.[/s] Sorry folks, accent reprint has been concluded. So due to the dates of our registration window, events will be happening the week of the 10th through the 16th, since we registered on the 13th and 14th. People who registered in April 2015 will also be welcome to join in our events, though the dates may not sync up with their window exactly. [b]TL;DR:[/b] I'd love to have another April 2014 Reg Anniversary party this year, week of April 10-16, April 2015 reg people are welcome as well. I will be hosting a Gen2 swap to trade offspring of our progens (they do not have to be your original progens but they HAVE to be gen ones so offspring are gen two) but we currently do not have anyone to run a raffle or accent creation for the event, someone would need to step up for these events to happen this year. Please let me know if you would like to go on the pinglist for when each event opens!

PM me with inquiries if you would still like a slot, though ^-^ [s]The cost is 350 gems per slot.

Please send your gems to @LostUmbreon and specify it is for an accent slot. Preview the accent: [skin=9572][/s] ----- [s]Thanks for the ping @Christovski~ Naturally the 2015 April users are free to join in any festivities this year, and if there's a 2016 April window we'll be looking for ways to fit them in too ^^ For those who are curious this is what our accent looked like last year!

BAM I managed to unearth a list of raffle participants and survey takers from the depths of my spreadsheet vault.

That said this is a year old list and doesn't account for name changes or abandoned accounts ;u; Nor does it include 2015 April reg folks OTL

@LostUmbreon Thanks for the ping! This would be fun to do again; depending on the accent I'd be interested in getting one! I liked the one from the last party very much, it's still on my progen.

yes!! super keen!

Thanks for getting the word out my Pokemaniac friend!

Apologies if anyone did not wish to be pinged, however we just want to make sure no one misses out on the fun this year!

Oh yeah, it's that time of the year again. Le's do this!

@Christovski
I have been summoned!

I'd love to have another anniversary party! :D I'm not sure about running the raffle but I might be able to help out with getting things together for it. I'd also be up for accepting fodder for raffle tickets if that's something we'd be interested in!

I'll probably end up doing the same thing as last year, where I hatch a gen1 since I don't have both my progens....but I still have the girl I traded for last year, so with luck I'll get a good mate for her! :)

As for accents, I agree that I'm not in need of another one, and still love the one from last year. Though I wonder if it'd be possible to do another run of it (if the user who made it is still around) if there's enough interest?

I don't have time to run a raffle, but if you guys end up doing one I can come up with some stuff to donate. ^_^

I missed out on just about everything last year so I'm willing to give this year a shot!
