The New Year Press, Chesapeake (PaxLair Times) – January 10, 2013 – by Ashlynn (With a Contribution from Nubby) – I hope the holiday period has been kind to everyone. I hope you are all sticking to your new year resolutions (I of course am not!), and I hope you have been giving the goblins some grief. They deserve it.
Volume 3 marks the beginning of the third year of actual news! In a contained format that is – there was plenty of news before then but it was so disorganized! So without further ado let us see some of this fabled news.
Guardian’s Gate Begin Darts League
Several days ago the good folk of Guardian’s Gate announced plans to run a weekly wednesday event over the course of the whole year and yesterday evening marked the first night of that endeavour. The event of choice this week was darts and it took place at the Ottersrun Taphouse. A good time was had by all – I even managed to steal second place through sheer luck!
The night’s final results were as follows:
- 1st Place – Lady Phoenix
- 2nd Place – Ashlynn
- 3rd Place – Dirtnap
- 4th Place – Mirie
The high score for the evening was 41 points shared between myself and Lady Phoenix.
Next week Guardian’s Gate will be hosting a Cow Tipping contest at 9pm EST. I look forward to seeing you all there!
PaxLair Anniversary Preparations Underway
Next week marks the PaxLair 205th anniversary and a whole host of events are planned to mark the occasion although there is still much work to be done. The celebration will run for a week with one or more events each night
A preliminary draft of proposed events can be found on the Chesapeake Community Board on Stratics. All are welcome and any who would like to host an event also are welcome to.
The opening ceremony will take place on the evening of the 15th of January. Events will continue until the 19th.
Sosaria Still Here
Despite earlier predictions that the realm might be torn asunder in late December, it has emerged that the realm of Sosaria still infact exists. The scholars of the Lyceum seem unsurprised by such a turn of events but various doomsday cults seem most perturbed at the lack of an apocalypse and reports suggest they took to the streets briefly to protest against… whatever elder god thwarted their plans.
On a more positive note, Malas continues to disintegrate with recent reports that a huge chunk of land crumbled away into the void last week. Fortunately no one’s home seemed to be perched upon it but would be proclaimers of the end of the world may find the crumbling continent more to their liking.
