The Behemoth Festival of Frost: A Server-Wide Event

http://i.imgur.com/KtDlQ2i.png

The snow has fallen in Eorzea and the land has frozen over. Hey though, that doesn't mean we can't have a good time! 404 Guild Not Found is back with our friends the Treehouse & Resonate to give you a reason to look forward to the chilly months of the year. The Festival of Frost makes its debut! We've got trivia, anagrams, riddles, outfit contests, dancing lalafells, and even more to make you forget all about that frostbite forming on your toes. Seriously though, you should probably get that checked out. Here's the crucial information:

When: February 7th at 9PM EST
Where: Camp Dragonhead (South of the Aetheryte)
Theme: The frozen tundra. Wear your icy shades and don your winter gear to keep warm in the frigid wind.
Why: Generating body heat mostly...

Join us for a night of dancing, food, prizes, games, laughs, and some surprises as we take Old Man Winter on face to face. There's no better time to come out and celebrate with your fellow Behemothians. Remember to bundle up though. This is a winter event and we'd hate to see you become a block of ice.

• We recommend turning off emotes in your chat log.
• Turning off spell effects for others is definitely helpful as well.
• Trivia & Anagrams are every 5 minutes.
• Culling can be intense! Snowman Shuffle Hiders will be far away from the party grounds.
• Pay attention to Yell chat for trivia & anagrams. Shout chat is where large events will happen.
• We will have random challenges throughout the night for 60 Day Time Cards as well as Humble Bundles.
• Ione Nightshade will run the large events. Issy Dawnbringer & Trix'tan Zhwan will run trivia & anagrams, Houma Flamereborn will run the Game Time Card giveaways. Watch for their names.
• Bring your best winter attire for the "Snow Bunny" Outfit Contest

We'll be giving away a veritable cornucopia of 60 day game time cards and Humble Bundles. Lots of lovely giveaways will be happening throughout the night. Pay attention and participate as much as you like, but the most active fellow of the night may just get a special prize as well.

Also we'll be casting this live on Twitch! You can find our channel at http://www.twitch.tv/404guildnotfound/

In case you guys need a reminder about what these events are like, heres some photos from our last outing The Behemoth Autumn Affair: http://imgur.com/a/XRGde

Oh and the twitch stream: http://www.twitch.tv/404guildnotfound/c/5372120

We tend to go pretty all out for these ;)

Also, for those interested, I'm planning on having a music stream going that evening. It's going to be a winter themed playlist so most of the songs will have something to or mention frost, snow, winter, etc in their lyrics/song title. I'll release details about it later. I can't wait to see everyone there!

Looks like we're also going to be featured in the January 21st episode of the Realm Echo podcast. More details on that soon!

We're proud to announce that FFXIV Realm will be officially sponsoring this event as well. Check us out on the January issy of the Realm Echo podcast. We'll be posting the details here after recording for it!

I am frothing with anticipation for this! I hear I may be giving out augmentations to some lucky players!

We're proud to add our newest sponsor to the list. Gamerescape! Look for the event later in the week and check us out later in the month on Aetheryte Radio! Make sure to give them a visit at http://www.gamerescape.com

Wow, I have to say I'm super impressed by all the sponsor's we are getting this time. It's shaping up to be a blast. I just hope I get to attend!

It is pretty excited and we might have more to come. It seems people are getting behind promoting a community atmosphere which is amazing. I'm really excited to see everyone there.

Just a few days out! The lalafells are prepped, the prizes have been set, and we're ready to do this! Are you? =P

Almost time friends! Just a few more days until we kick off the Festival of Frost!! Hope to see you all there!

1 more sleep! That's tomorrow for the people with odd sleep schedules! Hope to see you there!

Today is the day! Get your outfit ready and place yourself in Camp Dragonhead as the Festival of Frost kicks off tonight at 9PM EST!

Thank you all that attended the event this evening. Without you, it wouldn't be possible. We gave out a lot of great prizes tonight and we hope that you all had as much fun as we did. We're going to be holding another one in a few months, likely after the expansion. Please look forward to it!
