In game holidays/memorials

[Jokingjoe]

There had been a thread listing all the game holidays, but I'm having trouble finding it. Is that something you could sticky in here?

I think the thread that you are referring to was a debate on removing or reducing the frequency of holidays. It's the sort of thing that tends to come up around November.

I'll sticky this one instead

[EDIT] As of 2nd November 2014, the Fallen Friends days provide +1 BRT bonus INSTEAD of taking the war functions offline.

Massacre : Conquest2 is not effected by the rest of the games entering holiday mode.

All automated holidays start and end at midnight server time which is based on 'Coordinated Universal Time' (UTC).

They are not based on your LOCAL time.

UTC is same as GMT (UK Time during the winter period) and does not change with Daylight Savings.

For example

00:00 UTC = 16:00 PST (Pacific Standard Time)
00:00 UTC = 17:00 PDT (Pacific Daylight Time)
00:00 UTC = 19:00 EST (Eastern Standard Time)
00:00 UTC = 20:00 EDT (Eastern Daylight Time)
00:00 UTC = 00:00 GMT (Greenwhich Mean Time)
00:00 UTC = 01:00 BST (British Summer Time)
00:00 UTC = 01:00 CET (Central European Time)
00:00 UTC = 02:00 CEST (Central European Summer Time)

Torkano, haven't seen that name in ages. We had some good battles.

Fallen Friends days are to commemorate players who have passed away. Alas, none of us will never see another post from Tork

Thanks Kaz

Also--I seem to recall that every race had some kind of special attribute. Can these be added the the race statistics page at the bottom under "Other racial modifiers"?

eg: Elves casting fog on same-faith kingdoms
Kobolds having a change to increase attack str
Humans being able to send 2 caravans in a 24 hr period
Elementals doing increased damage to forts, etc.

Oh gosh, I had no idea we lost Rathowen I remember playing spades with him, Decae, and Aria at one of the bashes at Decae's place. Damn....

[Kaz]

It's sad when I have to add another fallen friend's day to the list

Rest in Peace Misty Moonlight
