Moonfirefall Faire??

Just curious...

We all know the summer event will be happening soon after launch, but I'm SLIGHTLY confused... What is it actually CALLED???

In 2011 it was the Firefall Faire: http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com...c8d343296f1ccd
But in 2012, it inexplicably changed to Moonfire Faire: http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com...b1c214d4cee7b9

Lol, is it both? Is it officially Moonfire now? Will it change again? Why'd they change it in the first place? Was it a mistake?

Think the name was changed to be more in line with all the Dalamud stuffs

<--gives Keith a ball of yarn :3

Exactly what I was thinking. I get the sneaking suspicion that we'll see more 'heat-resistant' gear soon :D

Hm, maybe... I wonder if the Loremongers noticed the change, or what they thought of it.

Well I guess cause Dalamud was barking at the door, they changed the name to be more thematic. I suspect there is a lore related explanation that we could beat(ask nicely) out of Ferne. :3

I certainly noticed, but don't know what to make of it.

Figured I'd wait for its third iteration to see what happens.

Whee /moondance ftw

Starfaire Festival with /moondance! X)

We're definitely planning on holding another Moonfire Faire! We hope it lives up to the reputation of festivities years prior.
We also checked with the Lore team, who simply had this to say:
The name has indeed changed, for the better, don't you think?

I thought Firefall Faire sounded better to be honest, but as long as the event is good, who cares?

Hmm, you know, I do like Moonfire Faire better. It conjures up images of warm summer nights filled with fireworks and fun activities. I hope that's some of what we get!

I like Moon better too. :)

Moonfire Faire, yes indeed! (Not so much "moonfirefallfaire"...) Looking forward to the excellent event posters, too.

ditto on moonfire faire, beo like'y.

Maybe they changed it after hearing about the f2p game Firefall.
